»Orphée« (Trailer) - Anhaltisches Theater Dessau

Philip Glass used for Orphée the script of a famous film as a libretto , that of Jean Cocteau's Orphée from 1949. Unlike his first music-theatrical works, Orphée presents thus a plot with sharply defined characters, encounters and a dramaturgy full of tension. Glass created an opera about inner and outer distance, death and the sources of artistic inspiration. The celebrated poet Orphée meets death here in the form of a mysterious princess who cast a spell over him
pulls. After the accidental death of his wife Eurydice caused by the princess, Orphée is able to free her from the clutches of the princess and the realm of the dead - on condition that she never see her again in the realm of the living. But the couple's eyes meet. When Orphée finally falls victim to an attack by envious competitors, he meets Eurydice for the second time in the afterlife
