Family Portrait The Cullberg Ballet

Birgit Cullberg's ballet to Tchaikovsky's Piano Trio in A minor Op. 50 is set in the 1860s and concerns four people locked in a complex family conflict � a father (Niklas Ek), a mother (Eva Evdokimova), their daughter (Liselott Svalberg) and her beau (H�kan Mayer). Conflicting emotions make them virtual strangers to each other, but they are bound together by a profound love. Chromakey techniques allow the dancers to move in and out of Impressionist paintings by Manet, Monet, Turner and others.
