it looks fantastic
I want to watch this as well, but can’t find anything either. I sent a mail to the opera house asking how I can get a recording.
Edit: got a reply. They don’t have the recording and told me to contact the choreographer as he apparently owns the rights. Will try to do so later today (at work now)
Update 2: Found the instagram of the choreographer (Edward Clug) and sent him a message
Update 3: After checking his instagram a bit further, it turns out that there still are performances now and then (averaging at 1 per year, last one was in April). This led me to some more internet searching and I found where you can watch the most recent one (at La Scala in Milan): https://www.medici.tv/en/ballets/edward-clug-peer-gynt-grieg-la-scala
Last update: he blocked me without responding. But hey, I found it so I still call it a win.
How dare you reach out to inquire how to view his art! The nerve!
Great job tracking it down. It’s too bad Latvia doesn’t have any rights to their performance.
This is this first time I’ve missed “watch post” as an option on Lemmy. I want to know if you find it!
PieFed has this feature. Just click the little bell icon on the post.
Making a top comment for this. I have found a recording on medici.tv from April 2025 (same choreography): https://www.medici.tv/en/ballets/edward-clug-peer-gynt-grieg-la-scala
It’s a subscription service, but if you really want to watch it, it’s worth it (and you can cancel after a month anyway)
