After the great success of the 2012 and 2013 editions of “International Live Swing” and after “Jazz Broadway 2011”, the great gala dedicated to swing music and dance returns to Milan. The best performers on the international scene will "tell us", with music and dance, how Jazz was born from the contamination of a large number of musical and entertainment genres: from Broadway musicals to Hollywood music, up to the jazz reinterpretation of famous classical music pieces.
Special Guests: Dan Barrett (trombone, US), Rebecca Kilgore (vocal, US), Frank Roberscheuten (clarinet, US), Martin Breinschmid (vibraphone and drums, US) With the participation of: Rossano Sportiello (jazz piano, US), Paolo Alderighi (jazz piano, IT), Stephanie Trick (jazz piano, US) And with the extraordinary participation of: Karima Ballerini Swing: Vincenzo Fesi (dancer and choreographer of the stage area of the theater, IT), Marco Larosa and Sonia Salsedo (dancers and choreographers of the stalls areas, IT) and a dance group of international importance: Isabella Gregorio (IT), Katja Hrastar (Slovenia), Moe Sakan (Japan), Remy Kuoaku Kouame (France) and Pontus Persson (Swiden).
"Jazz Side Story" refers to the great "West Side Story", but it is also a metaphor for how Jazz interprets the theme of our life and other forms of musical expression. West Side Story is the famous musical adaptation of the great Leonard Bernstein of Romeo and Juliet (Shakespeare 1594).
The theme of the two lovers opposed by circumstances is much older and recalls dramas and legends of ancient Greece and the Celtic world, such as Troilus and Cressida, Tristan and Isolde, of course.
The theme is that of "overwhelming love", which through West Side Story, brings us to the role that Jazz has had in the world of music.
Overwhelming love is the "fil rouge" of the show: a narration of music and dance set in the America of the '30s and' 40s, through a path that intertwines the history of music, costume and vintage style, swing dances and by composers who in their time were great innovators.
On the stage of the Dal Verme the Big Band by Paolo Tomelleri, 20 brass to which is added a section of 12 strings, 2 opposing pianos, 2 drums and other instruments constitute a unique formation of its kind, which po jazz is transformed into a big band, until it becomes one of the largest symphonic rhythm orchestras in Italy.
The protagonists of the evening are jazz music and swing dance, the challenges between soloists on the international scene, which retrace Broadway musicals and certain themes of classical music.
It is known that that era was also linked to the world of dance. The orchestras addressed an audience of dancers, especially in New York. The Roseland, the Alhambra, the Savoy Ballroom were the places where most of the young people went to hear their idols. Ballrooms for 2000 people. Dancing also played a fundamental role in Broadway plays, vaudeville shows, the Cotton Club. There was no successful show that did not feature a group of dancers. It was precisely the dance, despite racial discrimination, that brought black and white boys and girls together. Swing dance became a kind of fever of the time and, subsequently, it was considered by historians to be an important element of social aggregation. At Dal Verme, as in the great shows of the time, a phenomenal dance troupe will be staged to revive the atmosphere of the great ballrooms in the America of the 1930s and 1940s. The dancers invited to the gala come from all over Europe. The choreographies are curated by Vincenzo Fesi, an internationally renowned artist and dancer.Translate By Google https://www.ipomeriggi.it/eventi/jazz-side-story-the-overwhelming-love/
