The hunt for whale oil and the search for light through dark arias on glisting ice. These are some of the ingredients in the innovative opera 'The last rites', which will be premiered in Østerbro Ice Skating Rink.
'The last rites' is a chamber opera which deals with exploitation as the driving force in the world. The story begins in 1721 - the year of the colonization of Greenland - and unfolds the theme of eternal over-exploitation of territories and people.

 

The brand new Østerbro Ice Skating Rink forms the framework of a monumental, sensuous and chilled opera experience where audience and artists alike are to experience the ice in all its forms. The cold and the score will slowly envelop, and the fatal story of man who ventures out to conquer new land is brought to life.

 

‘The last rites’ plays out as a form of baroque opera - the predominant style in Europe in the Age of Enlightenment. Based on the musical idiom of baroque, the award-winning composer Niels Rønsholdt creates a brand new and original work which takes us from the beginning of oil extraction to the destruction that we are clearly seeing the signs of today.

 

The opera is performed for the first time by some of the best singers in the country who specialize in performing new works: soprano Katinka Fogh Vindelev, mezzo-soprano Nana Bugge Rasmussen, counter-tenor Morten Grove Frandsen and bass-barytone Richard Låås.  They are accompanied by pianist James Sherlock and the ensemble Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen. The work is staged and performed especially for Østerbro Skøjtehal by OPE-N’s artistic manager Louise Beck in co-operation with performance artist Nana Fransiska Schottländer, who also appears in the performance.

 

The work is performed in an ice skating rink, so don't forget to bring warm clothes!

English

Jagten på hvalolie og stræben efter lys i formørkede arier på isen. Det er nogle af ingredienserne i den nyskabende opera 'Den Sidste Olie', som uropføres i Østerbro Skøjtehal.
'Den Sidste Olie' er en ny kammeropera om udnyttelse som verdens drivkraft. Handlingen tager udgangspunkt i året for koloniseringen af Grønland i 1721 og udfolder sig som en eviggyldig fortælling om rovdrift på territorier og medmennesker. 

Den spritnye Østerbro Skøjtehal danner rammen om en monumental, sansemættet og kuldslået operaoplevelse, hvor publikum og operasangerne er fanget i mørket på isen. Langsomt sniger kulden og musikken sig ind på dem, og den fatale fortælling om mennesket, der drog ud for at indtage nyt land, vækkes til live. 

Den Sidste Olie udfolder sig som en slags barokopera – den fremherskende stilart i oplysningstidens Europa. Ud fra barokkens tonesprog skaber den prisbelønnede komponist Niels Rønsholdt et helt nyt og originalt værk, der spændes ud mellem olieudvindingens begyndelse og den destruktion, vi så tydeligt ser omridset af i dag.

Operaen uropføres af nogle af landets bedste sangere med speciale i ny kompositionsmusik. Oplev sopran Katinka Fogh Vindelev, mezzosopran Nana Bugge Rasmussen, kontratenor Morten Grove Frandsen og basbaryton Richard Låås, akkompagneret af pianist James Sherlock og ensemblet Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen. Værket iscenesættes og udformes særligt til Østerbro Skøjtehal af OPE-N’s kunstneriske leder Louise Beck i samarbejde med performancekunstner Nana Fransiska Schottländer, som også medvirker i forestillingen.

Forestillingen er produceret af OPE-N I samarbejde med Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen.
