SOLO
Lamento,
solo for Gabriella
MICHÊLE ANNE DE MEY
Presentation
All that remains of Monteverdi’s Arianna is its central scene, Lamento. Abandoned by Theseus, Arianne mourns the part of herself that has been torn
away for ever. Michèle Anne De Mey has been inspired by this exquisite, ancient and tragic snippet to create a solo that has been tailor-made for
Gabriella Iacono, her prima donna. Initially the choreographer confines herself to a strict, choreographed transposition of the text carried by the
singing. Then the tableaux link together into a dance that transforms the first throes of a sense of abandonment through a veritable anatomy of
dereliction, a kind of universal écorché of the mindset of someone wounded by the loss of a beloved.
