Opera Futura Laboratori per un Nuovo Teatro Musicale is a project conceived and coordinated by Giordano Montecchi
*electronic musical instrument with a big floor-like keyboard practicable by one or more musicians
The two shows, a revisitation of opera’s languages, are the prosecution of the pluriennial research F&A is dedicating to “The Wizard of Oz”.
The protagonist, Dorothy, an avatar of the audience, is catapulted by her cyclone South and then North of the fantastic universe where her journey-adventure takes place.
Both the shows start from the Wizard’s well-known question: “I am Oz the great and powerful who are you?”
“North” is one of the two possible musical answers by two possible Dorothies.
It is is founded on a new and utopic musical instrument, the pedonium: a big “keyboard”, a very peculiar synthesizer.
It is a damaged floor, as if it was restless, maybe a disused stage, maybe a work of art.
From these floor boards, a sort of giant keys, voices, melodies, preverbal sounds, light phenomena and ghost of sounds burst out.
The protagonist, Dorothy, “plays” that floor crossing and walking it until it produces a proper musical score.
Starting from an initial research on opera’s great tradition, a real journey into sound, a descent through voice into the most intimate part of the self take place.
