GLUCK – DANCE OF THE FURIES [ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE]

Ο ζόφος δεν αποτελεί “προνόμιο” της σύγχρονης μουσικής, ούτε καν εκείνης της εποχής του ρομαντισμού. Ιδού ο Christoph Willibald Gluck [1714-1787], προαναγγέλλων μεταξύ άλλων τον …Μότσαρτ, στο ζοφερότατο Χορό των Ερινύων από την μεγαλειώδη όπερά του Ορφέας και Ευριδίκη. Ο Leopold Hager διευθύνει τη Munich Radio Orchestra.

    I feel the Furies! Love this.
    I adore the take on the myth in “Black Orpheus”, a Brazilian film from 1959.
    Have you seen it?
