Musica Viva Chamber Orchestra


The premiere of “Orfeo ed Euridice” was conducted by the author on October 5, 1762 at the Vienna City Theater. The first reaction of listeners was restrained: the composer was reproached that "passions are not expressed strongly enough". Later (in 1774) Gluck significantly revised the score of "Orfeo" for his production in Paris. Unlike the Viennese version, the party of Orfeo is lowered in the tessitura for the tenor (in the Italian version it was intended for castrati (alt), they wasn’t allowed to sing in the Paris opera);
- significantly recycled recitative dialogues and enriched instrumentation of the orchestra;
- in accordance with the traditions of the French Opera was included a lot of ballet numbers.
Concert-performance, which will be performed on the stage of the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall March 5, 2019, will present a modern interpretation of the Paris release of the opera using the expressiveness of the combination of motion of  3 soloists and chorus, ballet and light scores.
