«PIAF. Hymne à l’Amour,» the new choreography by Alberto Canestro performed on stage by the Lyric Dance Company, premiered on April 4 at the Teatro Puccini in Florence. After having explored great female figures, such as Artemisia Gentileschi, Frida Khalo, Tamara de Lempicka and Maria Callas, Alberto Canestro dedicates his latest work to Edith Piaf, the celebrated French singer. «The voice of Edith Piaf has always hurt my heart»— says the choreographer — «as well as her biography, which fluctuates between the numerous difficulties in her private life and the triumphs in the artistic sphere.» Through dance, the Lyric Dance Company creates an intense portrait not only of Piaf as a woman, but also as a unique and exceptional artist, who was always able to provoke emotions with her music.

«PIAF. Hymne à l’Amour», la nueva coreografía de Alberto Canestro interpretada en el escenario por la Lyric Dance Company, se ha estrenado el 4 de abril en el Teatro Puccini de Florencia. Después de haber explorado grandes figuras femeninas, como Artemisia Gentileschi, Frida Khalo, Tamara de Lempicka, María Callas…, Alberto Canestro dedica su último trabajo a Edith Piaf, la gran cantante francesa. «La voz de Edith Piaf siempre me ha herido el corazón —comenta el coreógrafo—, así como la biografía de esta irrepetible artista, que fluctúa entre las grandes dificultades de la esfera privada y los triunfos de la vida artística«. A través de la danza, Lyric Dance Company crea un retrato intenso de una mujer, y al mismo tiempo artista excepcional, que siempre fue capaz de provocar grandes emociones.
