The role of Giselle is an iconic role for every ballerina. It requires not only a virtuoso performance of the most complex elements, but also mastery of the art of reincarnation. After all, Giselle from the first act - young, tender, in love - in the second act must turn into a vilisa, cold, restrained and mournful. Our prima ballerina Priska Zeisel has created a truly special image of the ballet's protagonist, which is a must-see. On February 16, the ballerina's partner in the performance will be Viktor Lebedev, a premier of the Mikhailovsky Theatre, and the role of the Lady of the Wilis will be performed by soloist Marfa Fedorova.

The ballet "The Nutcracker" choreographed by Yuri Grigorovich. The Waltz of the Snowflakes is one of the most famous and beautiful scenes of this ballet. Tchaikovsky added a children's chorus part to the orchestra's melody - and it seems that these gentle voices convey the feeling with which we look up into the sky when huge airy snow flakes fall from it....
The court jeweler Carl Fabergé received from the Emperor complete freedom in the choice of subjects and design of Easter eggs, so he must have been well aware of the tastes and artistic preferences of the Empresses. Carl Fabergé was probably well aware of Maria Feodorovna's love of birds. There were many of them in the tsar's country residences, and in St. Petersburg's Anichkov Palace the dowager empress had a huge cage with countless feathered birds. In 1911 Fabergé made an Easter gift for the mother of Nicholas II called "Laurel Tree" with a "little bird" in its branches. Over 100 years later, with the help of a golden key, you can wind up the mechanism and hear it sing and flap its wings! 📸: Easter egg "Laurel Tree". St. Petersburg, 1911. The firm of Carl Fabergé.
About 200 works by Boris Grigoriev, a painter of bright talent, myristic, decadent and modernist, who emigrated after the revolution and is still little known to the general public in Russia, are waiting for you. The large-scale exhibition is designed to demonstrate the talent of the painter, the breadth of subjects and the unique expression of graphic images. The exhibition features portraits of prominent figures of Russian culture of the early 20th century (Maxim Gorky, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Miron Sherling and others), images of the Russian peasantry from Grigoriev's famous cycles "Raseya" and "Faces of Russia", Breton types, Parisian scenes, Latin American landscapes and other masterpieces. The main hits of the exhibition are the first display in Russia of a huge canvas "Revizor" based on Nikolai Gogol's immortal play, as well as 58 sheets of the graphic suite "The Brothers Karamazov" based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel
The Bolshoi ballet in Oman After five years, the Bolshoi returns to Oman. Three performances of the ballet Raymonda by A. Glazunov (choreography by M. Petipa, version of Y. Grigorovich) will be shown on the stage of the Royal Opera House Muscat. And, as in 2019, the Bolshoi Orchestra is also taking part in the tour. The Royal Opera Muscat dates back to 2011. It is the first opera house on the Arabian Peninsula (the second opened in Dubai in 2016), which has become the main theatre and concert venue in Oman, and the intersection of the cultural traditions of the East and West. Even though opera is the main subject of interest (an incredible number of opera companies, including the Bolshoi and Mariinsky theatres have toured there), a taste for ballet is also being gradually established there. The first ballet that Muscat audiences saw, literally two and a half months after the theatre opened, was Swan Lake performed by the ballet troupe of the Mariinsky Theatre. Since then, Muscat has been visited by the American Ballet Theatre/ABT, the Stuttgart Ballet, the Hamburg Ballet, the English National Ballet, the Boris Eifman Ballet Theatre, the Perm Opera and Ballet Theatre, and again the Mariinsky Ballet. And finally, the Bolshoi Ballet is coming there too. One of the leading ballet troupes in the world was asked to show an example of Russian classics, and the choice fell on Raymonda. 25th of January, 19:00 Raymonda - Yulia Stepanova Jean de Brienne - Dmitry Vyskubenko Abderakhman - Mikhail Lobukhin 26th of January, 19:00 Raymonda - Alyona Kovalyova Jean de Brienne - Artemy Belyakov Abderakhman - Nikita Kapustin 27th of January, 14:00 Raymonda - Ekaterina Krysanova Jean de Brienne - Dmitry Smilevski Abderakhman - Mikhail Lobukhin The Bolshoi Orchestra Conductor - Pavel Sorokin 📸 Katerina Novikova
Eccezzionale la fibrillazione dei passi sulle punte in veloce eundo della ballerina e la impressione astante e praesens di facilità esecutiva d'acchito sorprendente. Ottimo l'impadronimento imperativo del proscenio da parte del ballerino a balzi falcati amplissimi ed a rotazioni volanti raccolte. Ottimo quello che con un mio neologismo mi piace chiamare convolo aereo ed elanista della ballerina ottimamente indotto e tenuto dal partner con bilico di difficoltà massima ed eseguito con una non chalance esecutiva d'acchito sorprendente. Superlativi tutti gli agenti in proscenio.Bighin Giulio Renzo 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Oh this was so amazing. Im a ballet dancer as well and I absolutely love watching different performances because I love seeing all the different styles of ballet. When I was younger I was trained in Royal but now I'm dancing Balanchine.
@@CultureOfRussia I see how russia(org. - Moskovia) shows its culture in Bucha, Mariupol and many other cities of Ukraine. There is no respect for international statutes in russia(org. - Moskovia)
How does your comment relate to the Mikhailovsky Theatre? You have the wrong channel a little bit. Channel Description: A project devoted to the culture of Russia.

If you have anything to say on the subject, please say so.
@@CultureOfRussia Then call it "Mikhailovsky culture", not russia. The russians now follow no culture but barbarism, and use your innocence for political purposes.
