Romantic Ballet In 2 Acts

Description:

Orfa was Adolphe Adamâ??s penultimate ballet, with an intriguing scenario based on Nordic mythology. It shares analogies with Hesiodâ??s Theogony and Wagnerâ??s Ring cycle in depicting the struggle between the older gods (Loki) and younger gods (Odin). Full of archetypal Romantic elements, Orfa was mounted with the lavish stage spectacle for which the Paris OpÃ©ra was famous, and featured Fanny Cerrito in the title role. Adamâ??s writing shows increasingly vivid orchestral imagination, drama and tonal colour, with roles for several instrumental soloists. This world premiere recording uses a new edition copied from Adamâ??s original manuscript score held at the BibliothÃ¨que nationale de France. - ROMANTIC BALLET IN 2 ACTS
