Orpheus und Eurydike
By Christoph W. Gluck. Dance-opera by Pina Bausch

Choreography Pina Bausch. Music Christoph W. Gluck.

A co-production of Bayerisches Staatsballett and Pina Bausch Foundation

Orpheus und Eurydike by Christoph W. Gluck. Dance-opera by Pina Bausch ranks among dance theatre legend Pina Bausch’s most important pieces. The story is based on the ancient myth of Orpheus and Eurydike. In Pina Bausch’s interpretation of Gluck’s late baroque dance opera, dancers and singers are integrated into the action on stage on an equal footing. While orchestra and choir perform in the pit, a profoundly human romantic drama unfurls on the stage. The characters, Orpheus, Eurydike and Amor, are each embodied twice, through dance and song, thus overlapping emotional states and internal conflicts in multiple layers. Orpheus and Eurydike appears exclusively as part of the 2027 Ballet Festival Week in a total of eight performances.
