Oltremare

Oltremare is a contemporary ballet created by choreographer Mauro Bigonzetti for the New York City Ballet. It is set to an original musical score by Bruno Moretti and forms the third work in a three-ballet collaboration between Bigonzetti and Moretti commissioned by the company. The other two works in the sequence are Vespro and In Vento. Oltremare premiered on January 23, 2008, at the New York State Theater at Lincoln Center in New York City. The production used costumes designed by Bigonzetti and Marc Happel, with lighting by Mark Stanley. The ballet was presented as part of the New York City Ballet's 2008 repertory season. Contemporary coverage included reviews by Alastair Macaulay in The New York Times, Clive Barnes in the New York Post, and Joel Lobenthal in the New York Sun. Available reference material identifies Oltremare as a stage work rather than a consumer-goods brand or commercial company; consequently, details such as ownership, headquarters, product lines, operating markets, corporate structure, and current activity are not applicable or are not established.

Oltremare was created within a sequence of commissions from the New York City Ballet pairing choreographer Mauro Bigonzetti with composer Bruno Moretti. It followed Vespro and In Vento, making it the third work in their three-ballet collaboration for the company. The ballet received its premiere on Wednesday, January 23, 2008, at the New York State Theater in Lincoln Center, New York City. Bigonzetti was responsible for the choreography and also shared responsibility for the costume design with Marc Happel. Mark Stanley designed the lighting. The work entered the New York City Ballet's spring 2008 repertory, with repertory documentation identifying it among the company's scheduled performances for that season. Its early reception was recorded in reviews by Alastair Macaulay of The New York Times, Clive Barnes of the New York Post, and Joel Lobenthal of the New York Sun. The available references do not provide a detailed synopsis, cast list, later revival history, recording history, or information about any commercial brand activity. Because the authoritative subject is the ballet rather than an Italian food or consumer brand, corporate fields and commercial taxonomy are not applicable on the available evidence.
