After more than six decades, an unprecedented score by Tom Jobim finally reaches the stage. The work, entitled “Water of Boys”, was composed by the conductor and genius of Bossa Nova at the request of the master ballet and choreographer Dalal Achcar, who now transforms the material into an unprecedented spectacle. The premiere takes place on November 22, in the City of Arts. The show “Water of Boys – Poetics Fantasy in Two Acts” marks Dalal’s return to choreographic creation after more than 20 years. The assembly is signed in partnership with Eric Frederic, ballet master of the Dalal Achcar Ballet Company.
On stage, 21 dancers tell, through dance, the story of friendship between Dalal Achcar and Tom Jobim. The original track was arranged for symphony orchestra by Radamés Gnattali, and the plot alternates between Rio and Salvador. The cast brings together prominent names of Brazilian dance, such as Claudia Mota, first dancer of the Theatro Municipal of Rio de Janeiro, in the role of Dalal; Manoel Francisco, as Tom Jobim; and Irene Orazem, as Madame Makarova, master of the choreographer. ric.
