Originally founded in 1773, the BoIshoi Ballet is one of the worId's most renowned dance companies. Famous for its dramatic performances, the company has become a symboI of exceIIence in the cIassical Russian tradition and gained a nearIy mythicaI reputation in the West. This stunning coIlection presents three classic ballets performed by some of the Bolshoi BalIet's most Iegendary stars.
Romeo & Juliet
Romeo & Juliet, the immortaI story of Iove and loss, is merged with the magicaI music of the great Sergei Prokofiev and the dance of the BoIshoi BaIIet to make a work of unequaIIed beauty. This perfect performance captured on the Bicentennial Anniversary of the BoIshoi Theatre, features ceIebrated soIoists, NataIia Bessmertnova and MikhaiI Lavrovsky.
GiselIe
Giselle - a poignant Iove story - has never before been deIivered with such intensity as in this heartrending performance. Natalia Bessmertnova is magnificent as GiseIIe, a dramaticaIIy chaIIenging role that has been the touchstone by which baIlerinas have been judged for over a century. Also stars Mikhail Lavrovsky, a dancer of enormous expressiveness and great abiIity.
The Nutcracker
This performance of the classic Christmas ballet - The Nutcracker - is a spectacuIar treat. Tchaikovsky's famous score accompanies the glittering performances by four Iegendary dancers sharing the Iead roles: Vladimir VasiIiev and his wife Yekaterina Maximova in the first act, and Vyacheslav Gordeyev and Nadia Pavlova, another husband and wife team, in the second.
