Alberta Ballet Company - Mitchell:The Fiddle Drum

Joni Mitchell's The Fiddle and the Drum explores Mitchell's life-long concerns about environmental neglect and the warring nature of mankind within a ballet performed to a select soundtrack of her eternal songs. The unique combinations of three art forms - music, dance and art - comprise an engaging spectacle that Joni calls ...the best project of her career. Legendary Canadian artist Joni Mitchell and internationally acclaimed choreographer Jean Grand-Ma�tre of the Alberta Ballet Company are the co-creators of Joni Mitchell's The Fiddle and The Drum. This narrative ballet was performed to an especially re-mastered soundtrack of Mitchell's compelling music - her musical selections are from her earliest to latest recordings such as: For the Roses, Passion Play, Slouching Towards Bethlehem, The Beat of Black Wings, Sex Kills, The Three Great Stimulants and The Fiddle and The Drum. BONUS: Special Features (Behind the Scene / Interviews / Image Galleries + Video Installations from the set).
