Rite of spring
with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra
Clipa Theater adaptation of Rite of Spring is returning with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (conducted by maestro Yoel Levi) for a special series of nine performances between 17-26.2, in Tel Aviv, Haife and Jerusalem.
Inspired by the original production of the Ballet Russe, Clipa Theater's adaptation describes a society which has brought disaster upon itself, lost its land, with all it entails - gravity, fertility, center, hierarchy and direction.
Rite of Spring is a dance-theater piece that offers a bold interpretation of primal concepts, such as man's earthly urges opposing his mystic yearning towards the sky.
Rite of Spring premiered in collaboration with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra in 2003 conducted by Maestro Roni Porat.
The piece continues to run as a part of the Philharmonic Orchestra's program.
Rite of Spring is available also as an outdoor performance, in which the music is played by 2 pianists.
