Romantic Ballet In 2 Acts |
|
| Description: | Orfa was Adolphe Adamâ??s penultimate ballet, with an intriguing
scenario based on Nordic mythology. It shares analogies with
Hesiodâ??s Theogony and Wagnerâ??s Ring cycle in depicting the
struggle between the older gods (Loki) and younger gods (Odin). Full
of archetypal Romantic elements, Orfa was mounted with the lavish
stage spectacle for which the Paris Opéra was famous, and featured
Fanny Cerrito in the title role. Adamâ??s writing shows increasingly
vivid orchestral imagination, drama and tonal colour, with roles for
several instrumental soloists. This world premiere recording uses a
new edition copied from Adamâ??s original manuscript score held at the
Bibliothèque nationale de France. - ROMANTIC BALLET IN 2 ACTSOrfa was Adolphe Adam's penultimate ballet, with an intriguing scenario based on Nordic mythology.
