竹夢 (Bamboo Dream, 2003, Dance)

『竹夢』是一齣沒有劇情,沒有特定角色的抒情之舞。 『竹夢』美麗如畫,魅惑人心,是林懷民最傑出,最別出心裁的作品。不以情節敘事,而託『晨霧』、「春風」、「夏喧」、「秋徑」、「雨霽」、「午夜」、「冬雪」等舞段,抒論飄邈意象,乃雲門林懷民又一靈感泉湧之作!
嚴寒之下,修竹挺俊,長青如玉:中國自古以此喻君子氣節,譬之以凜然風骨,傳之以高妙神韻!竹林化境,似夢超遠,既有觀音大士,如意自在悠坐,更見魏晉南北之竹林七賢,清談玄學於其間。
The Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan interprets one of composer Arvo Part's paeans to the mythology surrounding bamboo in Asia. In Eastern folklore, bamboo features in many stories and symbols, and choreographer Lin Hwai-min has composed some vigorous and dynamic expressions to accompany the Staatorchester Stuttgart, the Twelve Strings of the BPO, and the improvisations of Chinese flute player Huang Sheng-Kai (黃聖凱).
