The more biographical research I did, the more I became interested in Lenya and the role she played in Weill/Brecht's creative aesthetic, the totally unique stage-creature that she was, as well as the role she continued to play with Weill's music well after he died. From Russia With Love (1963) Agent 007 faces off against bad guys played by Robert Shaw and Lotte Lenya. When Balanchine choreographed Sins in 1933 and revived it in 1958, a single ballerina committed all seven sins (Tilly Losch in '33 and Allegra Kent in '58, with Lotte Lenya singing Weill's original tunes on stage both times), which must have given the ballet a certain consistency. |
