Serenata Italiana - ein barockes Tanztheater

Man stelle sich Venedig um 1700 während der Zeit des Karnevals vor: Die Paläste sind von Tausenden von Kerzen hell erleuchtet, es findet ein Ball nach dem anderen statt, die Strassen sind voll von Maskenumzügen und auf den Plätzen haben wandernde Theatergruppen ihre Bühnen aufgeschlagen, um ihr Publikum mit Spiel und Tanz zu unterhalten. Lassen Sie sich von den Ismaninger Hoftänzern und La Danza in diese lebendige Zeit entführen und erleben sie hautnah origniale Tänze aus dem frühen 18.Jahrhundert, eingebettet in eine Rahmenhandlung mit dramatischen Geschehnissen während eines Maskenballs.

Abgerundet wird das Programm mit Szenen aus der "Neuen und Curieusen Theatralischen Tantz-Schul" von Gregorio Lambranzi, die von einem der Wandertheatergruppen dargeboten werden.

Verpassen Sie nicht, sich um 19h30 im grossen Konzertsaal der Musikschule Ismaning einzufinden, denn die Vorstellung kostet keinen Eintritt.

The fantasy and the legend, which is a story of Ignacy Jan Paderewski, not only great pianist and composer, but also a statesman, who was an important person in the process of restoring Poland’s independence. The performance, showing life stages of celebrity pianist, is based on unpublished letters from Paderewski to his second wife, Helena Górska. ”Burn this letters Helenka” – he wrote. Luckily, she didn’t. This letters had been given to Jagiellonian University Institute of Musicology and are now kept in the treasury of Jagiellonian Library.

The music and dance performance will show the most important moments in artist’s life. There will be child joy, youthful longing, star’s auphoria and… Poland. All of it in the company of women – beautiful, attractive and smart – who played a huge role in the composer’s life.

At the same time, the cooperation of polish ballet with the pianist, who since 80. lives in USA, is a symbolic spotlight on the two countries, in which Paderewski lived and worked.
