West Side Story

Rennes

France

In partnership with the Opéra de Rennes, a concert Revise your classics outside the walls, presented on Thursday March 15, 2018 at the Tambour of Rennes 2 University.

West side story  is a  Romeo and Juliet , brilliantly transposed to 1950s New York by Leonard Bernstein. The Afro-American rhythms give an astonishing topicality to this confrontation between two rival bands, as if to prove that the myth has not finished living and reviving.

The darkness of the theme, the sophisticated music, the importance of the dance scenes, the emphasis on social issues constituted a turning point in American musical theatre. Bernstein's score became extremely popular thanks to tunes like  Something's coming, Maria, America, Somewhere, Tonight, Jet Song , etc.

In the form of excerpts, this one-hour concert invites you to discover the most beautiful pages of this musical comedy that has become legendary.

With the participation of the Prolatio choir , under the direction of Manuel Simonnet . In collaboration with the Regional Conservatory of Rennes .
