SUMMARY:REQUIEM: Journeys of the soul
DESCRIPTION:Jazzart Dance Theatre in collaboration with Cape Town Opera\, the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra and Phoenix Dance Theatre presents the new\, critically acclaimed 5-star production of ‘Requiem: Journeys of the Soul’ choreographed and directed by Dane Hurst with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Neo Muyanga.  \n  \nThe brand-new production premiered in the UK in collaboration with Opera North and Phoenix Dance Theatre and Cape Town Opera was hailed as a 5-star “knock-out double bill” and promises to be a thought-provoking and poignant expression of remembrance and rebirth in a post-pandemic society. Neo Muyanga’s new work entitled ‘After Tears’ was described as an “invocation of South African rituals of mourning and remembrance – ultimately celebrating the beauty of life – colourful\, joyous\, uplifting: food for the soul.” This new work was specially commissioned by Opera North to be performed along and as a companion piece to Mozart’s iconic masterpiece entitled\, ‘Requiem’. Muyanga writes – “My new work After Tears laments the palpable sense of loss after the dream of a utopia has been deferred. The piece is a rallying call for individual citizens to work collectively\, with empathy\, to rebuild after a period of distress and loss. It envisages this collective work as a vibrant ‘After Tears party’ where the blues of mourning are submerged and constrained by the reverie of a cleansing ceremony.”  \n  \nWith lighting design by Faheem Bardien\, the music to this production will be brought to life by the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra\, Schola Cantorum -The Stellenbosch University Chamber Choir\, Cape Town Opera’s soloists and award-winning chorus under the musical direction of Adam Szmidt.  \n  \n \n  \n
