Music joins fashion in a staged concert presented by Fondazione Carlo Felice di Genova with Roberto Capucci’s original costumes and choreographies by Simona Bucci.
On the 250th anniversary of the birth of Ludwig van Beethoven, Fondazione Carlo Felice di Genova presents “The Creatures of Prometheus | The Creatures of Capucci”. Two great protagonists of the stage: Ludwig van Beethoven’s only work composed for the ballet, in two acts “Le Creature di Prometeo” (Die Geschöpfe des Prometheus), Op.43 is matched with Roberto Capucci’s creations. Capucci stands on the international scene as the high fashion wizard, for his innovative style, his ability to place clothing in dialogue with nature, arts and architecture. On stage, a repertoire of 15 male costumes made from the original sketches by Capucci exhibited in 2018 at the Uffizi in Florence.
