Famous White adagio Siegfried and Odette - gentle, subtly sensual. Extraordinary expressiveness of support in transverse twine. Snow-white tutus of ballerinas of the swan corps de ballet, framing the dance duet of the premiere and prima ballerinas, seem to glow in the darkness of the night. Exceptionally romantic Siegfried in this dance - Ivan Negrobov, good and Odette - Yulia Nepomnyashchaya.

The luminaries in the dance of the little swans are very touching - Tatyana Goloveyko, Daria Abrosimova, Ksenia Blazhchuk, Vera Tkachenko. pas de quatre in their performance he looked, indeed, charmingly diligent, like real chicks. Linked crossed hands, chains entrechat-six And sissonne simple, smooth emboiter le pas, synchronous profile head turns, second fading in Arabesque…
In some kind of intellectual game, some expert once could not answer the question of how many little swans perform this dance. - Four! Padequatre!

Good characteristic divertissements - Spanish dance, Russian dance, Polish dance, Neapolitan dance. Gentle and airy Dance of the brides.

In black pas de dois Yulia Nepomnyashchaya demonstrates a more convincing power of movement, her Odile is filled with offensive, confident victoriousness. Again a series of brilliant and very beautiful duet lifts, strokes and rotations in the adagio, wonderful solo variations of the Prince and the Black Swan, and here, in this dance, all balletomanes are looking forward to the 32 culminating victorious fouettes of the triumphant Odile, a heartless coquette, aware of the power of her beauty. The prince is blinded by the resemblance, and being under the power of confusion, calls the sorcerer's daughter his bride. At the moment when he gives her a bouquet, the suffering Odette appears in the background, wringing her hands in despair, and the spell is instantly dispelled.

The ingenious music of the great Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky!

The choreographic drawing of the dance in this ballet was created by Marius Petipa, an outstanding choreographer, the founder of Russian classical ballet, and Lev Ivanov, a famous Russian ballet dancer and choreographer.

"Summer Ballet Seasons" at RAMT are presented by the troupe of the National Classical Ballet under the direction of Anna Nekhlyudova.

Tchaikovsky wrote music for three ballets, among which Swan Lake is perhaps the most beloved and most famous. It always seemed to me that Swan Lake was a rather long statuary ballet, but here all four acts flew by in one breath. Although, perhaps, the reason for this was the Russia-Spain match, which could not help but divert the attention of the audience to furtively viewing the score on their mobile phones.

Every time you watch "Swan Lake" you discover new meanings in this wonderful love story.
What is real feeling and false infatuation. How difficult it is to find love and how easy it is to lose it.
How difficult it is to correct a mistake, but what happiness gives the acquisition of true feelings.
What is our life? - Love!

Summer Ballet Seasons 2018

RAMT (Russian Academic Youth Theater)
(2 Teatralnaya Square)

July 1 – August 28, MOSCOW – Russian Academic Youth Theater is about to host the 18th annual fixture of Summer Ballet Seasons 2018. When repertory theaters go off-season, a unique ballet marathon starts on Moscow’s cultural map. Every day over two months, the RAMT stage will be home to masterpieces of global ballet art. This includes three ballets by Pyotr Tchaikovsky – Swan Lake (traditionally opening and completing the Seasons), The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker, as well as Giselle by Adolphe Adam, Don Quixote by Ludwig Minkus, Romeo and Juliet and Cinderella by Sergei Prokofiev, etc . These will be shown in classical versions by Russia’s top choreographers – Marius Petipa, Vasili Vainonen, as well as in modern choreography reserving the classical basis. This concentration of world’s best masterpieces is the crown jewel of this city’s summer cultural life! Summer Ballet Seasons feature leading choreographic troupes with repertory based on ballet classics.

The ballet "Swan Lake" by P. I. Tchaikovsky is one of the most striking phenomena in musical culture, the world symbol of Russian ballet. The masterpiece created by the great composer at the end of the 19th century continues its triumphal procession around the world in the 21st century and, as before, conquers everyone with its lyrical beauty, the triumph of the ideas of goodness and humanism. The plot is based on an old German legend about the beautiful Princess Odette, who turned into in a swan by the curse of the evil sorcerer Rothbart. The premiere of Swan Lake took place at the Bolshoi Theater in 1877, and 18 years later choreographers Lev Ivanov and Marius Petipa created a new edition of the production, which became a classic. It was then that the world-famous “dance of the little swans”, the quivering snow-white tutus of the second “white act” and the diabolical 32 fouettes of the Black Swan first appeared. This phenomenal amount of fouettes - quick kicks and turns on one leg - were first performed by Pierina Legnani at the Mariinsky Theater, and since then they have become a must-have skill for any contender for the main role. At various times, the role of the swan queen Odette was performed by ballet legends Galina Ulanova Marina Semenova, Maya Plisetskaya, Raisa Struchkova, Natalia Bessmertnova.
