The special landscape in the Valley of Flowers national park in the Himalayas is distinguished by its brilliant colours and the variety of its _x001D_flora and fauna. Marc Cunningham was deeply in_x001D_fluenced by the temple dances of this region. The theme behind these dances, which were originally religious performances and for which the dancers dress in colourful garb, is the tension between good and evil. In Himalayan Dances - Valley of Flowers, various aspects of this ancient dance form are brought into the spotlight.

Marc Cunningham haalde voor deze compositie voor jeugdorkest zijn inspiratie uit het natuurreservaat “Valley of Flowers” in het Himalaya gebied. De kleurenpracht van de fauna en _x001E_flora en de indrukwekkende lokale, oorspronkelijk religieus getinte dansen waren aanleiding tot het componeren van dit inspirerende en contrastrijke werk.

Diese besondere Landschaft im Nationalpark Valley of Flowers im Himalaya zeichnet sich durch ihre Farbenpracht und Vielfalt in Flora und Fauna aus. Marc Cunningham war von den Tempeltänzen dieser Region tief beeindruckt. Thema dieser ursprünglich religiösen Tänze, bei denen sich die Tänzer bunt verkleiden, ist das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Gut und Böse. In Himalayan Dances - Valley of Flowers werden verschiedene Aspekte dieser alten Tanzkunst ins Rampenlicht gerückt.

Les danses himalayennes ont profondément impressionné le compositeur Marc Cunningham. Les danseurs sont parés de costumes chatoyants et portent des masques colorés. Le fil conducteur de cet art populaire est la distinction entre le bien et le mal. Les minuscules mouvements des yeux, les gestes précis de la main et les expressions faciales jouent un rôle d’interprétation important. Dans l’oeuvre Himalayan Dances, divers aspects de cette danse folklorique sont mis en évidence. Haute en couleurs_x001E_!

Le danze della regione dell’Himalaya che hanno profondamente impressionato il compositore Marc Cunningham, traggono ispirazione dalla religione indù, ma non sono più praticate. Esiste però una versione più attuale nella quale le danzatrici, che spesso indossano costumi sgargianti e maschere colorate, si esibiscono in balli spettacolari. Il _x001E_filo conduttore di quest’arte popolare è la distinzione tra il bene e il male. I minuscoli movimenti degli occhi, le gesta precise della mano e le espressioni del viso rivestono un ruolo importante nell’interpretazione. Himalayan Dances evidenzia diversi aspetti folcloristici di questa affascinante cultura.
