In Oedipus Rex, Stravinsky’s imposing opera-oratorio in Latin, the city of Thebes is afflicted by the plague. The only way to end it is to find and punish the old king’s murderer. Under pressure from his desperate subjects, King Oedipus goes in search of the perpetrator and discovers the horrific truth – that he himself is the guilty man.

 

NEW COMPOSITION BY SAMY MOUSSA
While Stravinsky’s oratorio assigns a key role to the male chorus, the Canadian composer Samy Moussa features the female chorus in his new composition. His Antigone, sung in Ancient Greek, deals with the tragedy of Oedipus’s daughter. Moussa’s lively, colourful sound palettes have previously been performed by the Wiener Philharmoniker and London Symphony Orchestra, among others. Conductor Erik Nielsen, a specialist in the modern and contemporary repertoire, will lead the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra in the premiere of Moussa’s major vocal composition.


WAYNE MCGREGOR
Wayne McGregor is a big name in the international world of dance and opera. Dutch National Ballet has previously performed his Chroma and Yugen to great acclaim. He has also directed various opera productions, including for the Royal Opera House in London (Dido and Aeneas and Acis and Galatea) and the English National Opera (Gluck’s Orphée et Eurydice). His intense contemporary idiom of movement is a perfect match for the intense classical stories of Oedipus and Antigone.

During the performances of Oedipus Rex /Antigone there will be an intermission of approximately 25 minutes after Oedipus Rex (approximately 1 hour), followed by Antigone (approximately 30 minutes).

English

In Oedipus Rex, Stravinsky’s imposante opera-oratorium in het Latijn, zucht de stad Thebe onder de pest. Alleen als de moordenaar van de oude koning gevonden en gestraft wordt, zal deze plaag ophouden. Onder druk van het wanhopige volk gaat koning Oedipus op zoek naar de misdadiger, en ontdekt de gruwelijke waarheid: hij is zelf de schuldige. 

 

NIEUWE COMPOSITIE VAN SAMY MOUSSA
Waar in Stravinsky’s werk een prominente rol is weggelegd voor het mannenkoor componeerde de Canadese componist Samy Moussa voor het vrouwenkoor. In zijn Antigone, gezongen in het Oudgrieks, staat de tragedie van Oedipus’ dochter centraal. De levendige en kleurrijke klankwerelden van Moussa stonden onder meer bij de Wiener Philharmoniker en het London Symphony Orchestra op de lessenaar. Met dirigent Erik Nielsen, een specialist in het moderne en hedendaagse repertoire, houdt het Nederlands Philharmonisch Orkest Moussa’s grootschalige vocale compositie ten doop.

 

WAYNE MCGREGOR
Wayne McGregor is een grootheid binnen de internationale dans- en operawereld. Het Nationale Ballet danste eerder met groot succes zijn Chroma en Yugen. Ook heeft hij operaproducties bij onder meer het Londense Royal Opera House (Dido and Aeneas en Acis and Galatea) en English National Opera (Glucks Orphée et Eurydice) op zijn naam staan. Hij voorziet de klassieke verhaalstof van een aangrijpende, hedendaagse bewegingstaal.
