ANGELS AND DEMONSmusical and stage performance
Where does light end and darkness begin?
Where is the boundary between salvation and temptation?
And is it possible for a person to carry both an angel and a demon within him/herself at the same time?
State Opera – Burgas presents “Angels and Demons” – a large-scale musical and stage spectacle in which soloists, choir, ballet and orchestra build a dramatic journey through the strongest images of good, evil, guilt, temptation and salvation.
The stage becomes a cathedral that gradually collapses; a vision of Walpurgis Night; an empty space between the earthly and the otherworldly; a place where light and darkness struggle not outside of man, but inside him/her.
The performance is based on fragments of iconic works by Gounod, Verdi, Puccini, Mozart and Boito – music in which prayer meets curse, the choir becomes a judge, the ballet – a shadow and a temptation, and Mephistopheles is present as an invisible force that observes, tempts and reminds that evil rarely comes from outside.
“Angels and Demons” is not just a concert.
It is a stage experience.
A mystery about the human soul.
A clash between the cathedral light and the demonic fire.
Between forgiveness and the fall.
Between the voice of the choir and the silence after the last chord.
The program includes fragments of operas by Verdi, Gounod, Boito, Puccini.
