Pastoral for the planet by La Fura dels Baus
Programme
Brace yourself for turbulence! Earthly disasters lie at the heart of the first half of this concert, which explores humankind’s relationship with nature. Fortunately, after the storm (by Reicha) comes the serenity of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 6. The “Pastoral” is given a fitting showcase in the staging by La Fura dels Baus, who, after the success of Haydn’s Creation, return with a participatory set-up and 360° projections, questioning our relationship with deep ecology.
Performances in February 2020.
