  • Liebeslieder-Walzer Et Lieder Choisis Johannes Brahms
    Roch-Olivier Maistre, Président du Conseil d’administration Laurent Bayle, Directeur général Jeudi 5 février Johannes Brahms | Liebeslieder-Walzer et lieder choisis Jeudi 5 février | Dans le cadre du cycle Le temps de la danse Du samedi 31 janvier au vendredi 6 février 2009 et lieder choisis Liebeslieder-Walzer Liebeslieder-Walzer Vous avez la possibilité de consulter les notes de programme en ligne, 2 jours avant chaque concert, à l’adresse suivante : www.citedelamusique.fr Johannes Brahms | Johannes Brahms Cycle Le temps de la danse La valse, la bourrée… : toutes les danses dictent leur rythme. Elles donnent le ton et le temps à ceux qui s’y accordent. De la danse traditionnelle thaïe aux Ländler de Brahms, les pulsations d’une chorégraphie réelle ou rêvée emportent la musique et les corps dans leurs tournoiements. Le khon, théâtre traditionnel thaï apparu voici mille ans dans les cours royales d’Ayutthaya, s’imposa rapidement comme le divertissement privilégié des rois. Il met en scène des personnages masqués, richement costumés de brocarts de soie, qui exécutent des danses très codifiées, accompagnées par des musiciens, des chanteurs et des narrateurs. La très forte puissance évocatrice de cet art pictural vivant permet d’entrer en contact avec le monde invisible, de donner âme aux croyances magiques… Et aussi de fonder l’identité de la communauté, de la rassembler sur des temps forts. Le programme imaginé par Jordi Savall sous le titre de Ludi Musici : L’esprit de la danse participe du même paradoxe, pas dansés qui font à la fois la distinction et la communion des corps : il présente un répertoire composite, qui rassemble deux siècles de musiques dansées (de 1450 à 1650) en Europe occidentale, en Asie occidentale et en Amérique latine.
