Momo e no tegami - Hiroyuki Okiura [2011]
A Letter to Momo [2011]
Clinging to an unfinished letter written by her recently deceased
father, young Momo moves with her mother from bustling Tokyo to the
remote Japanese island of Shio. Upon their arrival, she begins to
explore her new habitat, meeting local children and learning their
routines and customs. However, it's not long before several bizarre
occurrences crop up around the previously tranquil island. Orchards are
found ransacked, prized trinkets start disappearing and, worst of all,
each morning after her mother leaves for work, Momo hears strange
mumblings coming from the attic of their home. Annoyed by these creepy
goings-on and her mother's refusal to believe them, Momo embarks on a
strange and supernatural adventure to discover the source of the
mischief, which leads her to a trio of troublesome imps: the flatulent
lizard Kawa, the childlike Mame and their hulking ogre leader Iwa. Momo
also learns that her visit to the island is in some way connected to her
father's mysterious letter.

Signes - Ballet de l'Opéra National de Paris - Carolyn Carlson & Olivier Debré [2004]
Signs
Recorded at the Opéra national de Paris "Signs" is about Painting and Dance, and must be viewed as the outcome of two creative processes which followed and complemented each other: Painter Olivier Debré designed the sets before work on the choreography even started. Olivier Debré's painted "landscapes" are more than just sets, they structure the ballet, defining seven sections. Carolyn Carlson's inspiration draws on the impressive visual material - trying to express what cannot be said with words, what belongs to spirituality, the ballet touches on the essence of life: relationships, the crossing of individual paths, death and the rebirth of Nature. With original music by René Aubry, the ballet is reminiscent of Baudelaire's "Correspondances" where colours, gestures and sounds echo each other.
