ARTEMIS IN ATHENS
|
|
Alessandra Ferri
|
Artemis in Athens, is a re-conceived production of Artemis, originally created by Lubovitch for American Ballet Theatre in 2003 and performed at the Metropolitan Opera House. Based on the Greek myth of the goddess of the hunt, this new production features the extraordinary star Alessandra Ferri in the title role, Lubovitch company dancer Tobin Del Cuore as Aktaion, and 10 top dancers from The Juilliard School as the ensemble. It is set to a new orchestration of Christopher Theofanidis’ original score, performed live by Le Train Bleu under the direction of Ransom Wilson. At the time of the earlier premiere at the Met, dance critic Jennifer Dunning wrote that Lubovitch has “created a delicate aura of mystery and magic that is unusual on the ballet stage today” (The New York Times).
