SUMMARY:Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda
DESCRIPTION:One of the most extraordinary works by Claudio Monteverdi\, the most universally renowned figure in Italian Baroque music\, Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda\, which celebrates its 400th anniversary in 2024\, becomes the foundation of an innovative multidisciplinary project\, where music\, singing\, theater\, and dance blend to create a seamless hybrid of performance languages. The choreography is by Philippe Kratz\, while the direction is by Fabio Cherstich\, whose work combines a strong focus on imagery and a passion for visual languages. \nNaples – Certosa e Museo di San Martino\n03 October 2024 – 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM\nDuration of each performance: 25 minutes \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCREDITS\nDirection and visuals: FABIO CHERSTICH\nChoreography and stage movements: PHILIPPE KRATZ\nMusic: IL COMBATTIMENTO DI TANCREDI E CLORINDA by CLAUDIO MONTEVERDI\nDancers: GADOR LAGO BENITO\, ALBERTO TERRIBILE \nCoproduction: FONDAZIONE NAZIONALE DELLA DANZA / ATERBALLETTO\, TEATRO REGIO DI PARMA / FESTIVAL VERDI\, TORINODANZA FESTIVAL – TEATRO STABILE DI TORINO – TEATRO NAZIONALE\, GHISLIERIMUSICA – CENTRO DI MUSICA ANTICA \nIl Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda is a project aimed at enhancing live performance activities within institutes and cultural sites\, promoted by the Directorate General of Museums and co-financed by the Directorate General of Performing Arts. \nFor the realization of the project\, the National Museums of Perugia – Regional Directorate of National Museums of Umbria – and specifically the National Archaeological Museum and Roman Theatre of Spoleto – established\, with the support of the Directorate General of Museums\, a partnership shared by five other significant cultural sites: Villa Pisani in Stra\, the Castle and Park of Racconigi\, the Swabian Castle of Bari\, the Charterhouse of San Martino in Naples\, and the Archaeological Park of Venosa; joining them is Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome\, which will host the initiative as part of the summer festival Sotto l’angelo di Castello. \n \nSITE-SPECIFIC VERSION \n\nChurch of Sant’Agata – National Archaeological Museum and Roman Theatre of Spoleto (PG) – 12 September 2024 PREMIERE\n\nCastel Sant’Angelo in Rome – 13 September 2024\n\nMonumental Complex of the Castle and Park of Racconigi (CN) – 22 September 2024\n\nNational Museum of Villa Pisani\, Stra (VE) – 28 September 2024\n\nCharterhouse and Museum of San Martino\, Naples – 03 October 2024\n\nSwabian Castle of Bari – 05 October 2024\n\nNational Archaeological Museum “Mario Torelli” of Venosa (PZ) – 06 October 2024\n\nKosmos – Museum of Natural History of the University of Pavia – 12 October 2024\n\n\n \nTHEATRICAL VERSION \n\nPREVIEW: Turin – Torinodanza Festival\, Fonderie Limone – 20-21 September 2024\n\nPREMIERE: Parma – Festival Verdi\, Teatro Farnese – 18-19 October 2024\n\nThe project is part of Italia Danza\, a co-project curated by the Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy of Maeci and CCN/Aterballetto for the promotion of Italy’s artistic heritage abroad. \nBODIES AS MIRRORS \nIn my vision of Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda\, I imagine a confined\, circular space where the proximity and similarity of the bodies play a fundamental role. Together with choreographer Philippe Kratz\, we explore the idea of bodies as mirrors\, thus narrating the story of humanity in a struggle against itself. Eros and Thanatos emerge as equally powerful forces\, creating a paradoxical atmosphere in this perfectly balanced fight between human beings. \nIn conceiving this new creation\, I explicitly draw inspiration from body art\, particularly the work of Marina Abramović and Ana Mendieta\, who explore the connection between the body\, the earth\, and primordial rites. I want the combat to reflect the protagonists’ relationship with the surrounding space\, incorporating natural elements into their absurd dance of death. \nA single voice will give life to three characters: the text itself\, Tancredi\, and Clorinda will merge into the body and sound of a countertenor. This estranged and forced sound\, following a circular path\, creates a sense of constant repetition\, emphasizing the endless cycle of this love-and-death story\, tragically destined to repeat itself through the centuries\, reaching us in all its strength—the emanation of the poetic power of Tasso’s words and the magnificent music of Monteverdi. \nFabio Cherstich\, Director \nINNER STRUGGLEFrom Torquato Tasso’s story\, transposed into music by Claudio Monteverdi\, the most obvious themes are the battle between woman and man\, and religious conversion. However\, these are the aspects I find least intriguing: translating them into dance would result in a narrative of mere circumstances. \nA more philosophical or psychoanalytic reading of this struggle\, from which both protagonists emerge defeated\, deceived\, and solitary\, seems far more interesting to me. Within the opposition of the two roles\, there is already an entire world: the seeking\, the confrontation\, and the mutual wounding. The dynamic follows the warlike and conflictual ritual of two entities approaching each other. The absurdity of the act manifests when one person loses their life\, and we realize that the other\, nevertheless\, has not won… a strong\, shared wound that remains on both bodies. So\, are these two people fighting each other\, or perhaps is one person fighting against themselves? \nPhilippe Kratz\, Choreographer \nA NEW CULTURAL DIALOGUE \nThe dance and live music project in museums Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda represents a new milestone in the enhancement of cultural heritage through the languages associated with all the arts. With its expressiveness and ability to engage\, dance enriches the museum experience\, making it vibrant\, dynamic\, and accessible to everyone. The synergy among the numerous institutions that have collaborated on the project allows us to present the performance in various cultural venues across the country\, establishing this initiative among the best practices of the National Museum System. \nMassimo Osanna\, General Director of Museums\nMinistry of Culture \nWe are pleased that from a project – Italia Danza – born from the Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy to promote\, in partnership with Aterballetto\, contemporary Italian dance abroad\, has created the bridge that has enabled this format to also be brought into Italian museums through a collaboration between Aterballetto and the Directorate General of Museums. For us\, this new partnership confirms the value and modernity of the work that the Directorate General I represent pursues daily to promote Italian culture abroad. \nFilippo La Rosa\, Deputy General Director for Public and Cultural Diplomacy\nMinistry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation \nWe are honored to lead such a virtuous project: building a national network capable of bringing baroque melodrama\, live music\, dance\, and contemporary direction into our museums is undoubtedly a remarkable way to enhance our heritage.\nThe Church of Sant’Agata\, part of the National Archaeological Museum and Roman Theatre of Spoleto\, seemed to us the most suitable space to host Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda: a place capable of providing an exceptional stage to offer spectators a unique experience of the convergence of languages\, from the past to the present. The dancers will perform in an 11th-century environment\, in front of the new altarpiece created by the artist Stefano di Stasio\, a dialogue between the ancient and the contemporary that fits well with this project. \nCostantino D’Orazio\, Director of the National Museums of Perugia – \nRegional Directorate of National Museums of Umbria \nCERTOSA E MUSEO DI SAN MARTINOThe Certosa e Museo di San Martino\, located in the enchanting setting of Vomero in Naples\, is a place of extraordinary beauty and cultural richness\, offering visitors a fascinating journey through Neapolitan history and art. This remarkable monumental complex is not only a museum but also a vibrant center of cultural activities\, actively collaborating on educational projects with universities\, schools\, and associations.\nLive performances\, primarily focused on music\, followed by dance and theater\, have further enriched the museum’s cultural offerings. Notable thematic festivals include events like “ConCertosa” for youth orchestras\, “Tales of Sounds\, Colors\, and Emotions\,” a multidisciplinary cycle centered on the 18th century\, and “Sounds in Certosa!”\, events that have made the visitor experience truly unique.\nOn this occasion\, the Cloister of the Procurators will be a suggestive setting for the staging of “Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda\,” a work that promises to fascinate and engage the audience.\nDiscover more \n \n\nINFO&TICKETS \nInfo for booking and ticket purchase: \n– Tickets can be purchased on-site or online via the Italian Museums App or the Italian Museums Portal. \n– Ticket price: participation in the event is free with the purchase of the museum ticket (full price €6\, reduced price for ages 18 to 25 €2\, free for under 18 and according to legal benefits). \n– On-site ticket office hours: from 8:30 AM to 10:30 PM. \nWith the purchase of a ticket\, it is possible to visit the monumental complex with cloisters and courtyards\, the Church\, the Nativity Scenes\, the Carriages\, the Lani’s Altar\, the Prior’s Room\, and the Nativity section.
