WERG O is going to release another highlight in the 'Carl Orff' DVD edition series: A film version of Orff's first stage work 'Gisei - Das Opfer' by the film director Peider A. Defilla. 'Gisei' is set in the year 902 in a village school in Japan and is about the sacrificial death of a child. Both the subject and the Japanese culture greatly inspired the young Carl Orff, and he remained an aficionado of Japan all his life. In the Japanese tragedies, Orff also found numerous references to the ancient Greek tragedies by Sophokles with which he concerned himself decades later. The DVD shows the world premiere production of John Dew (who was awarded the Carl Orff Prize 2012 only recently) at the Darmstadt State Theatre. Lavish costumes as well as carefully rehearsed facial expressions and gestures convey a deep impression of this tragedy. The following 15-minute bonus film includes interesting additional information on Orff's oeuvre and particularly on his work on 'Gisei'. Language: German?/English? Sound format: Dolby Stereo Picture format: 16:9? Disk type: DVD 9? Country code: (0) PAL Length: ca. 65+15 min.

The great Greek composer Theodorakis (who turns 90 in 2015) worked on this lyric tragedy for years, in his house opposite the Acropolis, and, according to him, immersed himself in the universal harmony he was looking for.

The director and film maker Peider A. Defilla devotes himself to Carl Orff again: WERGO is now going to release his film 'Antigonae' based on a production of the Darmstadt State Theatre. This DVD edition 'Carl Orff' presents a new view of the significant 20th-century composer Carl Orff (1895-1982). -Creon, new ruler of Thebes, issues a burial ban for Polyneices, Oedipus's son. Antigonae disobeys Creon's orders and buries her brother, so as to abide the laws of the Gods. Despite the warnings of the citizens and the seer Tiresias, Creon sentences Antigonae to death by walling her in. However, by annihilating Antigonae, Creon also destroys his very own existence: in quick succession, his son, who is engaged to Antigonae, and his spouse commit suicide.
