La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, with Konzertmeister Saténik Khourdoian, was conducted by Koen Kessels. For the first stage interpretation of this opera, the stage director and choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, with set design and video by Eugenio Szwarcer, did use contemporary dancers of his own company Eastman, sometimes forming a heroic statue, but in general absorbing, underlining and accompanying the vocal soloist characters in their role to focus on the traumatic effects war has on individuals.[17]The version of this world premiere has been broadcast on the French-German Arte television.[18] Roles
