ORCHESTRA TEBAIDE in "DISNEY OPERA "

**DISNEY OPERA**
Symphonic concert-show blending music, theater, and imagination.

Disney Opera is a concert-show born from the desire to bring back to the stage the magic of the most beloved Disney soundtracks, transforming them into a symphonic, theatrical, and immersive experience. It is not just a simple concert of music from animated films. It is a journey. A journey into the stories that have accompanied entire generations, into those worlds that do not belong only to childhood but continue to thrive even in adulthood. Disney music, in fact, possesses a unique strength: it is immediate, recognizable, yet profoundly narrative. Each piece contains a story, a character, an emotion. Disney Opera stems precisely from this awareness: transforming that music into a live experience, where orchestra, voice, and theater become a singular language. At the heart of the project is the idea of restoring concert and narrative dignity to this repertoire without losing its ability to astonish.

The Tebaide d'Italia Symphony Orchestra is an artistic entity distinguished by a contemporary approach to music production that unites high-quality performance, theatrical projects, and a strong connection with the audience. In recent years, it has developed original formats dedicated to music for images and the pop-symphonic repertoire, creating shows that go beyond mere musical performance to become true scenic experiences. In Disney Opera, the orchestra plays a central role: it doesn’t merely accompany; it constructs the sound world in which the show takes life. The production is characterized by: original symphonic arrangements, a strong integration between music and stage, and the ability to adapt to different theatrical contexts. The project is conceived and written by Raffaella Balestra, with musical direction and arrangements by Cosimo Maraglino.

**ARTISTIC IDEA**
The Disney world represents one of the most powerful and shared imaginations of our time. Its stories speak of growth, courage, love, and transformation. But what makes them universal is the music. Disney soundtracks are not just simple accompaniments: they are an integral part of the narrative, true emotional engines capable of transcending time. Disney Opera is created to bring this music back to the forefront, transforming it into an experience to listen to, see, and live. The project is based on three main elements:
• Original symphonic arrangements that expand the scope of the music and enhance its orchestral dimension, making it the absolute protagonist.
• A theatrical dramaturgy that connects the pieces and transforms them into a continuous narrative capable of guiding the audience.
• An emotional direction that alternates energy, poetry, and suspension, creating a balance between performance and listening.

It is a narrative journey. A space where imagination comes back to life.

**STRUCTURE OF THE SHOW**
The show is structured as a continuous musical narrative. The songs intertwine through: recited moments, narrative passages, and thematic connections. Each piece represents a story, a character, an emotion. The audience is taken on a journey that traverses heroism, discovery, love, and growth. The experience is designed to be immersive, thanks to: a live orchestra, solo voices, and scenic and visual elements. It is not just a concert, but a musical narrative capable of moving all generations.
