At the Teatro Comunale di Bologna a dance in three parts in which painting, music, dance and interact with each other
May Dance, the dance company of the Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino puts on three choreographies that draw inspiration from the vast religious iconography present in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. It begins with Stabat Mater, Francesco Ventriglia - here both as a choreographer and artistic director of Dance in May - the same name with music by Pergolesi, performed live at the Teatro Comunale di Bologna. Ventriglia was inspired by La Pieta Giottino and succeeded, through linear and clean, to make the viewer focus on the piety of Mary and the Apostles. The poignant and profound interpretation of Christ's Alessandro Riga does nothing but increase its beauty. Annonciation, choreographed by Angelin Prelocaj of 1995 with music by Vivaldi and Roy, refers instead to the Annunciation by Leonardo Da Vinci. In a scene that for the linearity and the use of color may remember a picture of Modrian, Mary and the Angel graceful dance but at the time laid strong and decided, the score of the Magnificat by Vivaldi scratchy runs in unison with their movements the result is a sweeping story of a revolt, and finally acceptance. The third and last part of the show is Selon Désir, the greek Andonis Foniadakis music by Bach. Inspired by The Fall of the Rebel Angels by Andrea Commodi, the composer builds a whirling dance, chaotic, impulsive, which seems to hint at the same time to despair of heavenly beings who have lost paradise and the eternal power of this earth towards the spirit, holiness, perfection.

I think the May dance has did a great job of training dance to people.
