“Swan Lake” – that is a promise. It is by far the most important ballet. Accompanied by an excellent live orchestra, it is now coming to your region. Admire this top-class danced, purely classically staged “Swan Lake”!
Whether in a magnificent ballroom or in the great outdoors: the opulent backdrops with colorful three-D effects let you immerse yourself in a strange but fascinating world. The stage dream of “Swan Lake” seems almost realistic here.
Added to this is the timeless magic of the music. When the composer Peter I. Tchaikovsky completed the ballet music in 1877, he had no idea that his melodies would soon be among the most loved works in the world. And the original choreography, created in 1895 by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov, is still an absolute benchmark today.
This version corresponds to the fairytale original. It is about the great love between the noble Prince Siegfried and Princess Odette, who has been transformed into a swan. But the magician Redbeard with all his cunning and his not unattractive daughter stand between them.
As a battle between good and evil, as a magnificent ballet with a festive character, as a "ballet blanc" with a graceful group of dancers in swan tutus and, last but not least, as a breathtaking love story that is exciting right up to the orchestra's final triumph, "Swan Lake" offers many opportunities to learn to love classical music anew.
Virtuosity and stylistic purity are the highest seals of quality. All generations find their bliss here. Because this "Swan Lake" is intoxicatingly beautiful.
