“Da loucura, do Grotesco e da Morte em Peer Gynt” (About madness, grotesque and death in Peer Gynt) Peer Gynt is a canonical character. This Ibsen’s play is one’s life play. The range of expressions goes from grotesque to sublime, from comedy to tragedy, from real to imaginary, from Eros to Thanatos. These movements are a 17 minutes long selection from the original score (1 hour long) who could better survive without drama. The original score was commissioned by the new Teatro Aberto and premiered the 24th February of 2001. This stage music was composed with a close relation between João Lourenço, the director of Teatro Aberto, who made an amazing mise en scène of Peer Gynt, and me. The dramatic relation between live music for 13 instruments and drama had a very special impetus and gave a very strong rhythm to the Ibsen’s play, a true aesthetic experience. Orchestrutopica premiered this piece at the library of Mafra Monastery the 17th October 2004, conducted by Cesário Costa. Eurico Carrapatoso, Lisbon, the 15th May 2004
