Currentzis conducts Mahler No. 5

What did Sellars do to anger critics and Neptune?
Musicologist Natalia Surnina on the opera KURENTZIS: IDOMENEI at the Moscow premiere of the opera in cinema.
The Power of the Dark Side
The first act is a chamber erotic thriller performed by two performers, the second is a gigantic attraction, as crowded as Babylon. Together, the expressive masterpieces of the early and late twentieth century form an apocalyptic diptych. Gloomy and incredibly beautiful: the sunset of the world is cool.

A powerful rest-the-soul
Currentzis is good at ancient sacred music... he has the keys to it, which is actually quite a rarity, not only in our conditions.

Those who follow Currentzis’s work know that he does not assemble programs based on external logic: old-new, monograph, contrast, chronology, etc. His programs are tied with other threads, more precisely, with a different dramaturgy, bringing him closer to the mystery of creativity, to the mystical layer where images are born, where "angels walk around the invisible city and look into the souls of people".
