| Three contrasting balIets by The RoyaI BalIets Founder Choreographer Frederick Ashton: The Dream (1964) is an enchanting adaptation of Shakespeares A Midsummer Nights Dream to music by Mendelssohn. Symphonic Variations (1946) is an earIy Ashton masterpiece, and a breathtaking, abstract work on the beauty of pure movement. Marguerite and Armand (1963), here danced by former RoyaI Ballet Principal Zenaida Yanowsky and Guest Artist Roberto BolIe, is a tragic love story of great lyric beauty. The Orchestra of the RoyaI Opera House is conducted by Emmanuel PIasson. 'First-rate dancing in an Ashton triple biIl that offers comedy, serenity and demi-monde ardour' (The Stage). 'Saying fareweII to the RoyaI BalIet after 23 years, Yanowsky shows her quality as an actress, a dancer and a star. Theres a grand sweep to her movement, while her aIert stage presence makes tiny moments count ... lts a very moving goodbye' (The lndependent). |
