‘During the last years I have been working on the interface between the choreographic and the opera material during the last research on this issue confronting the Macbeth material of Verdi’s opera with the choreographic one and also in a specific way using the material of the Puccinis’ Manon Lescaut within the work Victoria Beckham has migraine, so taking the research the step further was a logical one. There is something undiscovered and underapreciated in the opera for the choreographic practice which made a huge impact on my work in the field of dance. Although there have been some operas choreographed or some choreographies happened within the usual opera staging I still missed some essence to it, some basical understanding of on what plateau the choreography and opera actually meet and actual frictions. So in Vienna I decided to made some radical step away from the conventional and went completely over-the-top and off-the-shore. The result was a definitely hybrid performance where Kathleen Battle and Jessye Norman Ariadne on Naxos-rehearsal with James Levine find enough space as well as a Paris Hilton-Beach-Extravaganza. So the opera material was choreographing the complete set instead the set just framing the opera – this is what I called the Paris-Ariadne 1st Layout and it will be continued further during the 2007.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Placing the inscenation into an art gallery space brings forth the fluidity of its form, which is an exhibition\/orchestration\/inscenation hybrid in which all the immaterial elements and its static character resulting from the possibility of loop define it as an installation, while the music, as well as the direct streaming of visual materials from the Internet in real time, give the whole set the character of performance. <\/p>\n
So – roll the Strauss!<\/p>\n
