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.
Currentzis conducts Mahler No. 5
The grand five-part structure of the Fifth Symphony encompasses a long journey from the Funeral March to its tumultuous finale – perhaps naive in its finality but a sincere attempt to resolve the tragic conflict with the surrounding world.

Mozart without complexes
Absolutely everything that happened in the music was not simply conveyed by the conductor with a gesture - he danced, called, acted comically, threatened. There were as many shades in his movement as there were nuances in Mozart's score...
Teodor Currentzis presented new interpretations of Mozart's symphonies
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".
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.
