Bernsteins Candide
som konsert –
med fullt orkester, kor og solister
Bli med inn på Hovedscenen og gå ut igjen med bakoversveis! Glitter and be gay!

KJØP
Glitrende musikk og skarp samfunnssatire
Candide tar oss med på en eventyrlig reise gjennom ulike land og kulturer – fortalt gjennom Leonard Bernsteins fengende musikk.

Her møter vi en verden for oss full av absurditeter, sprudlende humor og krass samfunnskritikk. Historien er basert på basert på Voltaires bitende satire fra 1755.

Den beste av alle verdener
Candide er en ung og naiv mann som tror på filosofen Pangloss' lære om at «dette er den beste av alle mulige verdener». Men da Candide blir utvist fra sitt hjem og opplever en rekke brutale og absurde hendelser, begynner han å tvile på Pangloss' lære og må lære seg å navigere i en verden full av urettferdighet og ondskap. Finnes det håp og muligheter for forandring?

En av verdens mest ikoniske musikaler
Candide hadde sin første premiere i New York City i 1956. Siden den gang har Candide blitt spilt på scener over hele verden, og blir ansett som en av de mest kjente musikalene fra det 20. århundre.

Bernstein selv kalte Candide for en operette. Musikkstilen er noe mer  kompleks enn det vi forbinder med musikaler, og er en blanding av klassisk musikk, opera, jazz og Broadway. Den er fryd for øret og inkluderer noen av de mest kjente sangene i musikalhistorien, inkludert «Glitter and Be Gay» og «Make Our Garden Grow».

Sparkling music and sharp social satire
Candide takes us on an adventurous journey through different countries and cultures - told through Leonard Bernstein's captivating music.

Here we encounter a world full of absurdities, exuberant humor and crass social criticism. The story is based on based on Voltaire's biting satire from 1755.

The best of all worlds
Candide is a young and naive man who believes in the philosopher Pangloss' teaching that "this is the best of all possible worlds". But when Candide is expelled from his home and experiences a series of brutal and absurd events, he begins to doubt Pangloss' teachings and must learn to navigate a world full of injustice and evil. Is there hope and opportunities for change?

One of the world's most iconic musicals
Candide first premiered in New York City in 1956. Since then, Candide has been performed on stages around the world and is considered one of the most famous musicals of the 20th century.

Bernstein himself called Candide an operetta. The musical style is somewhat more complex than what we associate with musicals, and is a mixture of classical music, opera, jazz and Broadway. It's a feast for the ears and includes some of the most famous songs in musical history, including "Glitter and Be Gay" and "Make Our Garden Grow."
