"The music is divine and the ballet, divided into four parts, 'In Mourning', 'Violence', 'Peace', and 'Death' is a masterpiece. Bausch has invented dual roles, representing Orpheus, Eurydice and Love not only by the dancers, but also by singers on stage who form an integral part of the action. Orpheus, the myth goes, equals the gods with his song and music, so when Eurydice, his lovely young wife, dies from a snake-bite shortly after their wedding, the grief-stricken musician goes down into the Underworld to bring her back to earth."
