Liebe, Leid und Eifersucht

Zu Lebzeiten Händels war Acis und Galatea sein populärstes Werk. Heute gehört es zu den selten aufgeführten Werken und eben diesen Werken hat sich die kammeroperschweiz verschrieben. Acis und Galatea aufzuführen lohnt sich gleich in mehrfacher Hinsicht. Die kammeroperschweiz kann es in einen ähnlich intimen Rahmen stellen, wie Händel das ursprünglich tat und nimmt sich in Acis und Galatea einem Werk an, das den Höhepunkt der Entwicklung der pastoralen Oper in Europa darstellt.

This is an intensive three-day workshop focusing on the dance technique of the serious and demi-caractère styles of early ballet circa 1680-1790. The material presented is based on very extensive but as yet largely unpublished scholarly research into early ballet technique. This workshop then is a unique opportunity for dance-students, musicians of early music, or simply curious lovers of ballet to be introduced to a more historically accurate reconstruction of the theatrical dance from the age of Bach, Rameau, and Mozart.
