Lynne Glazer > The French Canada-based Cavalia performance has been described variously as a “ballet between man and horse,” “a gentle, romantic dance,” “a civilized showcase of precision horsemanship and courtly behavior,” and “a constant yearning to be airborne.” It is indeed the “magical encounter between horse and man” that it is billed, opening to sold-out crowds and standing ovations at the engagements scheduled so far in Canada, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Seattle. [Magali & Estelle Delgado, Dao & Penultimo]
Lynne Glazer > For artistic reasons, Latourelle installs them in a darkened booth above the back of the set, made transparent from time to time and lit by projections of a forest so musicians and singer are silhouetted against trees. The effect of the music coming from almost nowhere is haunting.
Lynne Glazer > At an early age she began training with some of Europe’s finest riding masters, and distinguished herself in competition at the Grand Prix level and also in haute école.
Lynne Glazer > Magali Delgado will tell you proudly that her parents, Pierre and Joëlle Delgado, have dedicated their lives to raising these intelligent, sensitive Lusitano horses that show a rare willingness to connect with and engage with humans.
Lynne Glazer > The screen behind the stage provides the dreamscapes, variously bearing ancient imagery of horses and their riders, or of a beautiful fall forest, or a centuries-old European town square, or the ruins of a coliseum. At one point, a very thin sheet of water begins to fall from the ceiling to the sanded floor of the stage, making a misty veil-between-the worlds to separate two riders who look through it toward each other. Daring roman riders race at devilish speeds, taunting and goading. Delgado rides her glorious white stallion Dao, who has a pan-European recognition as a Grand Prix horse as well as being a performer in Cavalia, in several acts. Especially fascinating is a “twin” act with her sister Estelle and her stallion Penultimo, where they ride in complex patterns—every movement in opposite image.
Lynne Glazer > Here they developed not only new shows but ever more perfect communication with horses, based on the language of horses themselves, and mutual trust and respect.
Lynne Glazer > Having this impressive background provided preparation for Delgado to pursue her dream of communicating with horses at an ever-higher level, as she and Pignon moved the performance horses from the family farm to create a stable of their own. [Magali & Dao backstage at Glendale]
