An evening dedicated to French music and song in a crescendo rhythm.<div> An evening dedicated to French music and song in a crescendo rhythm.</div><div><br></div><div> The first part is devoted to the famous chansonniers, to whom the most important and culturally established phenomenon of European song is linked. How could one not mention Edith Piaf, Yves Montand, or Jacques Brel? Or the one who is still considered the myth of French song, Charles Aznavour? It is poetic texts, speaking of love and indifference, joy and solitude, friendship and everyday life, that inspired the choreographic work, which unfolds in a succession of independent scenes. It is a work that, by playing with cultural stereotypes and moving from irony to nostalgia, tells everyday stories and speaks of emotions.</div><div><br></div><div> An evening of dance dedicated to French music could not be complete without Maurice Ravel's Boléro, a piece of explosive power and ingenious structure, an obsessive rhythm evoking seduction, immortalized by many great choreographers and performers. However, the Milan Ballet's version offers a different interpretation. It is not merely a game of seduction, but the timeless story of birth, of an inevitable attraction to a like-minded person, of a series of encounters. It is a life that, as it is born, fades away in solitude.</div><div><br></div><div> <strong><em>Part One</em></strong></div><div> La vie en rose... Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf, Yves Montand, Jacques Brel ... These are poetic texts that speak of love and indifference, joy and solitude, friendship represented in a choreographic work of extraordinary impact.</div><div><br></div><div> <strong><em>Part Two</em></strong></div><div> Bolero</div><div> Maurice Ravel's most famous work in a surprising choreography. It is not merely a game of seduction, but the eternal story of a birth, an inevitable attraction to a like-minded person, a series of encounters.
