Petite balade aux enfers

Orpheus is the foundation myth of western opera history It depicts music and chant as forces which are stronger than death and more powerful than Hell. The visual artist Valérie Lesort adopts an enchanting and humorous approach to Gluck’s work, regarding the performers and the puppets. A delightful performance to introduce children to lyrical chant.
