The Castle Opera invites you on 
13 February 2021 at 7.00 p.m. to the ballet premiere of Visions of Love / Myths choreographed by Zofia Rudnicka to the music of Fryderyk Chopin and Karol Szymanowski. The performance is co-organised by the Institute of Music and Dance as part of the "Choreographic Comissions 2021" programme.
The first part of the evening is a dance story of five women of different ages. We will see them in the park, lost in thought and frozen in the frame. Gradually, we will learn about their dreams, hopes and expectations. The protagonists' desires are as timeless as Chopin's music. Selected works by the composer, including preludes – piano miniatures, belonging to the most beautiful musical works of the artist, will create an atmospheric background for the virtuosity of classical dance and an exciting journey into the depths of a woman's soul.
The second part of the performance is the world of ancient mythology, in which fantastic transformations of deities and heroes explain phenomena taking place in nature. We will see the tragedy of Narcissus in love with himself and the metamorphosis of forest nymphs fleeing from the advances of lustful idols. Each myth is a different picture, dance and mood. All of them perfectly reflect the poetry of Szymanowski's hypnotic music, characterized by unusual tonal colors and drama. Neoclassical dance will emphasize the value of brilliant music and fully illustrate the supernatural transformations of mythical heroes.
