The
piece is part of the
ballet Wild Swans,
choreographed by Meryl
Tankard at the Sydney
Opera House in 2002,
based on the fairy tale
The Wild Swans by Hans
Christian Andersen.
Originally scored for
soprano and orchestra,
Eliza Aria introduces
Princess Elisa and
expresses her pure soul,
innocence and belief in
the goodness of the
world: Without saying a
word, she must weave
stinging nettles into
cloth to save her
enchanted brothers. The
short, enchanting
vocalise is perhaps Elena
Kats-Chernin's best-known
creation and went around
the world as music in a
promotional video on
YouTube. It is now
available in numerous
versions for `ifferent
instruments and
instrumentations.
