VORTICE DANCE COMPANY | Carmina Burana (Like never before)

www.vorticedance.com CARMINA BURANA Like never before Under artistic direction by the choreographers Cláudia Martins and Rafael Carriço, VORTICE DANCE COMPANY is preparing an international tour of its reinterpretation of the classic "Carmina Burana" (Songs by Beuren). Taking it to a new level, it combines Dance and videomapping with Carl Orff's powerful cantata, taking us on an emotional immersive experience. The medieval poems and profane songs (12th, 13th century) written by monks in a German Bavarian Convent served as inspiration for Carl Orff's scenic cantata. They exalt love, sex, drinking and dance… An exciting journey, where the characters are truly given over to their “Fortuna” (Luck). Produced in collaboration with the production company UAU, its premiere in Lisbon was a tribute to the cultural legacy of the 100 years of Teatro Tivoli BBVA, as well as to the work of Carl Orff, in an exploration of the creative potential of contemporary dance, in an increasingly technological world.
