Optimus Alive! 2011

Coldplay, Iggy Pop, Foo Fighters and Thirty Seconds To Mars are part of the huge poster Alive!2011, Which this year celebrates the fifth edition with an extra day of music. It will fit Algés Promenade between 6 and 9 July.

The Alive! distinguished from the rest by offering festival-goers live encounter between the three vertices: art, science (including through partnerships and events on site), and of course music. This is obviously the stronger plate.

And the corners of the musical activities also appear in trio. The Stage Optimus, the main names that are reserved for bigger crowds move. The Stage Super Bock, aimed more urban sounds, with the potential for dance rhythms and, above all, to discover new music, is becoming less a secondary stage: Grinderman, Primal Scream, Patrick Wolf, Dizzee Rascal, Fleet Foxes are some between the large entourage that goes there. On Stage Clubbing Optimus, the idea is to get into theme nights, which can range from presentation of the parade of Enchufada to Boyz Noise Records, through Love and Rage by Steve Aoki of Dim Mak. This year’s Alive! also has a bandstand, ready to receive the fighting men and several groups of traditional Portuguese music.

The strong aroma of the first day arrives from Jamaica, with “dancehall-hip-hop” by Sean Paul. But there are also Semba, rumba and the Angolan kizomba of Yuri da Cunha, and dance versions “chillantes” with the french Nouvelle Vague and a special encounter between two GNR ( Rui Reininho and the Guard ). On stageJogos Santa Casa, there is Love Electro, Zeca Always Cool and Maya. The duo Peter & Pete Tha Zouk Cazanova prolongs the evening in the Beck’Stage.

The second day is dominated by the feminine touch, he comes from R & B curves of the Luso-Canadian Nelly Furtado, the soul of disarming elegance of Aurea, the serious tone of the Nigerian wing or a “flying saucer” called the Clan. Lucia Moniz takes its “light wire” to another stage, which she shares with Brazil of Rodrigo Maranhão and the Contemporary Orchestra of Olinda. The rest of the night is due to Isilda Sanches.

Expensive Soul are the exception to the last day on the Stage Delta let it fall into the (good) hands of Brazilian music: Ney Matogrosso brings exuberance and restlessness, Maria Gadu proves to be the new favorite songwriter and fiddle with Parangolé do axé (and one such “Rebolation “…).

O Teatro S. Carlos, antecipando já a quadra natalícia, anuncia a estreia de La Sylphide, um espectáculo de bailado clássico que conta com a participação ao vivo da Orquestra Sinfónica Portuguesa sob a direcção musical do maestro Osvaldo Ferreira. La Sylphide estreou, numa primeira versão em 1832 na Ópera de Paris, com coreografia de Taglioni e música de Schneitzhoeffer, mas a versão que nos chega ao palco do S. Carlos foi a que aconteceu anos depois em Compenhaga com coreografia de Auguste Bournonville e com nova partitura de Hermann Löwenskjold datada de 1836. A trama enumera os principais traços do estilo do período romântico: o herói, James, oprimido e aborrecido com a sua existência burguesa vive dividido entre o amor fiel da sua noiva Effie e o desejo por Sylphide, um ser mágico de um outro mundo que morre quando James tenta aprisioná-la para a trazer para o mundo dos homens. Effie acaba por abandonar James e casar com o rival, deixando o herói só e vazio, numa espécie de morte em vida.
