Sabre Dance - Music by Aram Khachaturian, Ballet “Gayane”, Choreography by Nina Anisimova

The Sabre Dance is a movement in the final act of the ballet «Gayane», written by Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian and completed in 1942. It evokes a whirling war dance in an Armenian dance, where the dancers display their skill with sabres. Its middle section incorporates an Armenian folk song. Due to its exceptionally exciting rhythm, the “Sabre Dance” established a place for itself in common con-cert practice, leading also to various adaptations in popular music. Its recognizable ostinato and popular melodies have made it a popular concert band piece.

Nina Anisimova was a Russian dancer and choreographer. She studied at the Petrograd (later Lenin-grad) Ballet School with Maria Romanova, Alexander Shiryaev, and Agrippina Vaganova. In 1926 she graduated into the Maly Theatre of Opera and Ballet, then from 1927 to 1958 danced with GATOB (later Kirov Ballet). In 1936 she choreographed her first major ballet, Andalusian Wedding (music by Chabrier) for the Len-ingrad Ballet School. Her subsequent works include Gayane (music by Khachaturian, 1942) for the Kirov, Perm in which she danced the lead in the ‘Sabre Dance’. She also choreographed Songs of the Crane (music by Stepanov and Ismagilov, 1944) for Bashkir Opera, The Magic Veil (music by Zaranek, 1947), and her own version of Scheherazade (music by Rimsky-Korsakov, 1950), both for the Maly Theatre, Leningrad. In 1964 she staged Swan Lake for the Royal Danish Ballet. Between 1963 and 1974 she taught at the choreographic department of the Leningrad Conservatory.

Amour de la Vie - Music by Yann Tiersen, Choreography by Cara Copper

Yann Tiersen is a musician from France. His musical career is split between studio albums, collabora-tions and film soundtracks with a distinctive sound that is always involved. It can be recognized by its use of a large variety of instruments; primarily the guitar, synthesizer or violin together with instruments like the melodica, xylophone, toy piano, harpsichord, accordion and typewriter. Tiersen is often mis-taken as a composer of soundtracks, himself saying “I’m not a composer and I really don’t have a classical background,” but his real focus is on touring and studio albums which just happen to often be suitable for film. His most famous soundtrack for the film Amélie was primarily made up of tracks taken from his first studio albums.

Cara Cooper is from Jackson Hole, Wyoming and trained at the Colorado Ballet Academy where she received the Florence Rustin Award for Excellence. Ms. Cooper joined Colorado Ballet in 2005, and during the 2007-2008 season Ms. Cooper danced with the English National Ballet in London, England. Ms. Cooper has performed several leading roles including Rum and Cola in Paul Taylor’s Company B, Arabian in The Nutcracker, the Pas de Trois in Swan Lake, Flower Girl and Gypsie Queen in Don Quix-ote, Brown Woman in Celts and the Haughty Stepsister in Cinderella. In 2009, Ms. Cooper was invited to perform in the Gala Performance for the New York International Ballet Competition in the Rose Theater at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City.

Swan Lake - Music by Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Choreography by Marius PetipaNew choreographic version by Konstantina SergeevaFemale variation by Yuri Grigorovich

Swan Lake (Russian: Lebedinoye ozero) ballet, op. 20, by Pyotr Tchaikovsky, was composed 1875–1876. The scenario, initially in four acts, was fashioned from Russian folk tales and tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer’s curse.Pyotr Tchaikovsky was a Russian composer whose works included symphonies, concertos, operas, bal-lets, and chamber music. Some of these are amongst the most popular concert and theatrical music in the classical repertoire. He was the first Russian composer whose music made a lasting impression inter-nationally, which he bolstered with appearances as a guest conductor later in his career in Europe and the United States. One of these appearances was at the inaugural concert of Carnegie Hall in New York City in 1892. Tchaikovsky was honored in 1844 by Tsar Alexander III, and awarded a lifetime pension in the late 1880s.

Victor Marius Alphonse Petipa was a French ballet dancer, teacher and choreographer. Petipa is consid-ered to be the most influential ballet master and choreographer of ballet that has ever lived.

Marius Petipa is noted for his long career as Premier Maître de Ballet of the St. Petersburg Imperial Theatres, a position he held from 1871 until 1903. Petipa created over fifty ballets, some of which have survived in versions either faithful to, inspired by, or reconstructed from the original — The Pharaoh’s Daughter (1862); Don Quixote (1869); La Bayadère (1877); Le Talisman (1889); The Sleeping Beauty (1890); The Nutcracker (which was most likely choreographed by Lev Ivanov, perhaps with Petipa’s coun-sel and instruction) (1892); Le Réveil de Flore (1894); Le Halte de Cavalerie (1896); Raymonda (1898); Les Saisons (1900), and Les Millions d’Arlequin (a.k.a. Harlequinade) (1900).

Konstantin Sergeyev a former director of the Kirov Ballet who was also one of Soviet ballet’s leading male stars through the 1950’s. Soviet and Russian choreographer. He was the Kirov’s Ballet artistic direc-tor from 1951 to 1955 and from 1960 to 1970. Mr. Sergeyev was a driving force in Soviet ballet. He was born on March 3, 1910 in St. Petersburg and in 1930 joined the Kirov, then known as the Leningrad Bal-let, after attending night ballet classes and its regular school. As a choreographer, he created such ballets as “Path of Thunder” (1957), based on a South African story; “Cinderella” (1946), and “Hamlet” (1970), with Mikhail Baryshnikov.

Yuri Grigorovich was the soloist of the Maryinsky Theatre for 18 years and later for a short time headed its ballet. His first productions at the Kirov were «The Stone Flower» and «The Legend of Love». They marked the birth of a new choreographer soon to be known all over the world and of a new trend that many years determined the development of ballet in Russia.

Since 1964 and for over 30 years Grigorovich has been the choreographer-in-chief of the Bolshoi Theatre. It was the time of the greatest achievements in the artistic activity of the company, when it won the world acknowledgment and authority. The Bolshoi Theatre with Grigorovich at the head made international tours over than 90 times. He established the leadership of Russian Classic Ballet everywhere in the world and brought to the world stage brilliant dancers. In Moscow Yuri Grigorovich created ballets which won the world-wide reputation, among them «The Nutcracker», «Spartacus», «Ivan the Terrible», «Angara», «Romeo and Juliet», «The Golden Age». He also choreographed new versions of such masterpieces of the past as: «The Sleeping Beauty» and «Swan Lake», «Raymonda», «La Bayadere» and «Don Quixote», «Giselle» and «Le Corsaire».

Baсh- Music by Ástor Piazzolla, from ballet ”9 Tango and Bach”, Choreography by Dmitriy Bryantsev

Ástor Piazzolla was an Argentine tango composer and bandoneón player. His oeuvre revolutionized the traditional tango into a new style termed nuevo tango, incorporating elements from jazz and classical music. A virtuoso bandoneónist, he regularly performed his own compositions with different ensembles.

Dmitry Bryantsev was a Russian choreographer, dancer and writer. Chief choreographer of the Moscow Academic Music Theatre. Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko (1985 - 2004). Member of the Union of Theatre Workers (since 1981). Honored Artist of the RSFSR (1983), People’s Artist of the RSFSR (1989). A member of ISPA (1996).

Romeo and Juliette - Music by Sergei Prokofiev, Choreography by Anatoly Shekera

Romeo and Juliet (Op. 64) is a ballet by Sergei Prokofiev based on William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet. It is one of the most enduringly popular ballets. Music from the ballet was extracted by Prokofiev as three suites for orchestra and as a piano work.

Based on a synopsis created by Adrian Piotrovsky (who first suggested the subject to Prokofiev) and Ser-gey Radlov, the ballet in its original form was completed by Prokofiev in September 1935, on commission by the Kirov Ballet, since when he first presented the music to the Bolshoi Ballet that year, they claimed it was “undanceable”. The original version had a “happy” ending, but was never publicly mounted, partly due to increased fear and caution in the musical and theatrical community in the aftermath of the two notorious Pravda editorials criticising Shostakovich and other “degenerate modernists” including Piotro-vsky. Suites of the ballet music were heard in Moscow and the United States, but the full ballet premiered in the Mahen Theatre, Brno (then in Czechoslovakia, now in the Czech Republic), on 30 December 1938. It is better known today from the significantly revised version that was first presented at the Kirov Ballet in Leningrad on 11 January 1940, with choreography by Leonid Lavrovsky and with Galina Ulanova and Konstantin Sergeyev in the lead roles.

Sergei Prokofiev was a Russian composer, pianist and conductor who mastered numerous musical genres and is regarded as one of the major composers of the 20th century. His best-known works include the March from ‘Love for Three Oranges’, the suite ‘Lieutenant Kijé’, the ballet ‘Romeo and Juliet’ – from which “Dance of the Knights” is taken – and Peter and the Wolf. He also composed amongst many other works five piano concertos, nine completed piano sonatas and seven symphonies.

A graduate of the St Petersburg Conservatory, Prokofiev initially made his name as an iconoclastic composer-pianist, achieving notoriety with a series of ferociously dissonant and virtuosic works for his instrument and his first two piano concertos. Prokofiev’s first major success breaking out of the composer-pianist mould was with his purely orchestral Scythian Suite, compiled from music originally composed for a ballet commissioned by Serge Diaghilev of the Ballets Russes; Diaghilev commissioned three further ballets from Prokofiev – Chout, Le pas d’acier and The Prodigal Son – which at the time of their original production were all highly successful. Prokofiev’s greatest interest, however, was opera, and he composed several works in that genre, including The Gambler and The Fiery Angel. Prokofiev’s one relative success in that genre during his lifetime was The Love for Three Oranges, composed for Chicago and subsequently performed over the following decade in Europe and Russia.

Anatoly Shekera was a Ukrainian choreographer. This master of choreography made more 17 ballets and 9 choreographic scenes in operas on the Kiev stage. His best productions, Romeo and Juliet, Sparta-cus, Swan Lake, and Coppelia, all considered masterpieces of Slavic choreography. In fact, these ballets are included in repertoire The National Opera of Ukraine on every tour abroad. Several generations of dancers have gone through the Shekera school.

The Walpurgis night - Music by Charles-François Gounod, opera “Faust” Choreography by Leonid Lavrovskiy

Walpurgis Night is found at the beginning of the last act of Faust. Mephistopheles shows Faust the folk celebration before May Day when the souls of the dead are released briefly to wander as they will. The bal-let does not directly depict Walpurgisnacht but builds on a sense of joyful revelry.

Charles-François Gounod was a French composer, known for his Ave Maria as well as his operas Faust and Roméo et Juliette. Gounod was born in Paris, the son of a pianist mother and an artist father. His mother was his first piano teacher. Under her tutelage, Gounod first showed his musical talents. He entered the Paris Conservatoire, where he studied under Fromental Halévy and Pierre Zimmermann (he later married Zimmermann’s daughter). In 1839, he won the Prix de Rome for his cantata Fernand. He was following his father; François-Louis Gounod (d. 1823) had won the second Prix de Rome in painting in 1783. During his stay of four years in Italy, Gounod studied the music of Palestrina and other sacred works of the sixteenth century; these he never ceased to cherish. Around 1846-47 he gave serious consid-eration to joining the priesthood, but he changed his mind before actually taking holy orders, and went back to composition. During that period, he was attached to the Church of Foreign Missions in Paris. Gounod wrote his first opera, Sapho, in 1851, at the urging of a friend of his, the singer Pauline Viardot; it was a commercial failure. He had no great theatrical success until Faust (1859), derived from Goethe. This remains the composition for which he is best known; and although it took a while to achieve popularity, it became one of the most frequently staged operas of all time, with no fewer than 2,000 performances of the work having taken place by 1975 at the Paris Opéra alone, not counting other theatres. The romantic and melodious Roméo et Juliette (based on the Shakespeare play Romeo and Juliet), premiered in 1867, is revived now and then but has never come close to matching Faust’s popular following. Mireille, first per-formed in 1864, has been admired by connoisseurs rather than by the general public. The other Gounod operas have fallen into oblivion.

Leonid Lavrovskiy In 1922, after the ballet school for thirteen years danced in the company of the Lenin-grad State Academic Opera and Ballet (now Mariinsky). In 1935-38 was the Artistic Director of the Lenin-grad Academic State Opera (now St. Petersburg State Opera and Ballet Theatre named after Mussorgsky). In 1938 he headed the ballet troupe of opera and ballet theatre named Kirov (Mariinsky). In 1944 - 1964. was the Artistic Director of the Bolshoi Ballet. In 1959 he organized the first group “Ballet on Ice”, which combined the management of their activities in the theater. The final goodbye to the Bolshoi Theatre, was the artistic director of the Moscow State Academic Choreographic School.

Gypsy Dance - Music by Ludwig Minkus, ballet ‘Don-Quixote’. Choreography by Alexey Chichinadze

Ludwig Minkus was an Austrian composer of ballet music, a violin virtuoso and teacher. Minkus is most noted for the music he composed while serving as Ballet Composer of the St. Petersburg Imperial Theatres in Russia, where he wrote for the original works and revivals of the renowned Ballet Masters Arthur Saint-Léon and Marius Petipa. Among the composer’s most celebrated compositions for these Ballet Masters were La Source (1866; composed jointly with Léo Delibes), Don Quixote (1869); and La Bayadère (1877). During his career Minkus wrote a substantial amount of supplemental material for insertion into already existing ballets. Among these pieces, Minkus is most noted for the Grand Pas classique, Pas de trois and Mazurka des enfants written for Marius Petipa’s 1881 revival of the ballet Paquita. Today, Minkus’s ballet music is some of the most popular and performed in all of ballet, and is a most integral part of the tradi-tional classical ballet repertory.

Alexey Chichinadze is a famous Russian dancer and choreographer. 1971 - 1984 years - the chief choreog-rapher of the Moscow Musical Theatre named after K. Stanislavsky and V. Nemirovich-Danchenko.

The Dying Swan - Music by Camille Saint-Saëns, Choreography by Mikhail Fokin

The Dying Swan (originally The Swan) is a ballet choreographed by Mikhail Fokine in 1905 to Camille Saint-Saëns’s cello solo Le Cygne from Le Carnaval des Animaux as a pièce d’occasion for the ballerina Anna Pavlova. The short ballet follows the last moments in the life of a swan, and was first presented in St. Petersburg, Russia in 1905. Pavlova performed the dance about 4,000 times. The ballet has since influenced modern interpretations of Odette in Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake and has inspired non-traditional interpreta-tions and various adaptations.

Charles-Camille Saint-Saëns was a French Late-Romantic composer, organist, conductor, and pianist. He is known especially for The Carnival of the Animals, Danse macabre, Samson and Delilah, Piano Concerto No. 2, Cello Concerto No. 1, Havanaise, Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso, and his Symphony No. 3 (Organ Symphony). Saint-Saëns began his musical career as a musical pioneer, introducing to France the symphonic poem and championing the radical works of Liszt and Wagner at a time when Bach and Mo-zart were the norms. By the dawn of the 20th century, Saint-Saëns was an ultra-conservative, fighting the influence of Debussy and Richard Strauss while defending the reputations of Meyerbeer and Berlioz. This is hardly surprising—Saint-Saëns’s career began while Chopin and Mendelssohn were in their prime, and ended at the commencement of the Jazz Age; but his image endured for years after his death.

Mikhail Fokin was a groundbreaking Russian choreographer and dancer. Fokine was born in Saint Pe-tersburg, as son of a prosperous, middle-class merchant and at the age of 9, he was accepted into the Saint Petersburg Imperial Ballet School (Vaganova Ballet Academy). In 1898, on his 18th birthday, he debuted on the stage of the Imperial Mariinsky Theatre in Paquita, with the Imperial Russian Ballet (now the Mariin-sky Ballet). In 1902, he became a teacher of the ballet school. Among his students were Desha Delteil and Bronislava Nijinska. Fokine aspired to move beyond stereotypical ballet traditions. Virtuoso ballet techniques to him were not an end in themselves, but a means of expression. He also believed that many of the ballets of his time used costuming and mime that did not reflect the themes conveyed in the ballets. Therefore, Fokine sought to strip ballets of their artificial miming and outdated costumes. In addition, as a choreographer, he initiated a reform that took ballerinas out of their pointe shoes and also experimented with a freer use of the arms and torso. He presented his reformist ideas to the management of the Imperial theatre, but did not win their support. Some of his early works include the ballet Acis and Galatea (1905) and The Dying Swan (1907), which was a solo dance for Anna Pavlova, choreographed to the music of Le Cygne.

In 1909, Sergei Diaghilev invited Fokine to become the choreographer of his Ballets Russes in Paris. How-ever, Fokine broke off the collaboration in 1912, jealous of Diaghilev’s close association with Vaslav

Fokine staged more than 70 ballets in Europe and the United States. His best known works were Chopini-ana (later revised as Les Sylphides), Le Carnaval and Le Pavillon d’Armide. Among his works for the Ballets Russes were The Firebird, Petrushka, Le Spectre de la Rose and Daphnis et Chloé. Also, for the Ballets Russes, he created a ballet out of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade. His pieces are still performed by the leading ballet troupes of the world, the Mariinsky Ballet having performed a retrospective of his works at London’s Covent Garden in late July 2011.

Giselle - Music by Adolphe Adam, Choreography by Jean Coralli, Jules Perrot

Giselle (French: Giselle ou les Wilis) is a ballet in two acts with a libretto by Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges and Théophile Gautier, music by Adolphe Adam, and choreography by Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot. The librettist took his inspiration from a poem by Heinrich Heine. The ballet tells the story of a peasant girl named Giselle whose ghost, after her premature death, protects her lover from the vengeance of a group of evil female spirits called Wilis (a type of Slavic fairy also spelled Vila, Wila, Wiła, Veela). Gi-selle was first presented by the Ballet du Théâtre de l’Académie Royale de Musique at the Salle Le Peletier in Paris, France, on 28 June 1841. The choreography in modern productions generally derives from the revivals of Marius Petipa for the Imperial Russian Ballet (1884, 1899, 1903).

Adolphe Charles Adam was a French composer and music critic. A prolific composer of operas and bal-lets, he is best known today for his ballets Giselle (1844) and Le Corsaire (1856, his last work), his operas Le postillon de Lonjumeau (1836), Le Toréador (1849) and Si j’étais roi (1852, often regarded as his finest work), and his Christmas carol “Minuit, chrétiens!” (“O Holy Night”) (1847). Adam was also a noted teacher. Léo Delibes was among his pupils.

Jean Coralli was a French dancer and choreographer and later held the esteemed post of First Balletmas-ter of the Paris Opera Ballet. He is best known for the creation of the Romantic ballet Giselle (1841) which he choreographed in tandem with another French dancer, Jules Perrot.

Jules-Joseph Perrot was a dancer and choreographer who later became Balletmaster of the Imperial Ballet in St. Petersburg, Russia. He created some of the most famous ballets of the 19th century including Pas de Quatre, La Esmeralda, Ondine, and Giselle with Jean Coralli.

Le Corsaire - Music by Adolphe Adam, Choreography by Marius Petipa

Le Corsaire is a ballet typically presented in three acts, with a libretto originally created by Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges loosely based on the poem The Corsair by Lord Byron. Originally choreographed by Joseph Mazilier to the music of Adolphe Adam, it was first presented by the ballet of the Théâtre Impé-rial de l´Opéra in Paris on 23 January 1856. All modern productions of Le Corsaire are derived from the revivals staged by the Ballet Master Marius Petipa for the Imperial Ballet of St. Petersburg throughout the mid to late 19th century.

The ballet has many celebrated passages which are often extracted from the full-length work and per-formed independently: the scene Le jardin animé, the Pas d’esclave, the Pas de trois des odalisques, and the so-called Le Corsaire pas de deux, which is among classical ballet’s most famous and performed excerpts.

Don-Quixote (Grand-pas) - Music by Ludwig Minkus, Choreography by Marius Petipa

Don Quixote is a ballet originally staged in four acts and eight scenes, based on an episode taken from the famous novel Don Quixote de la Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes. It was originally choreographed by Marius Petipa to the music of Ludwig Minkus and was first presented by the Ballet of the Imperial Bolshoi Theatre of Moscow, Russia on 26 December [O.S. 14 December] 1869. Petipa and Minkus revised the ballet into a far more expanded and elaborated edition in five acts and eleven scenes for the Imperial Ballet, first presented on 21 November [O.S. 9 November] 1871 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre of St. Petersburg.

Don Quixote was brought from Russia to other countries first by Anna Pavlova’s company in 1924 in an abridged version of Gorsky’s 1902 production, though the full-length work was not staged abroad for many years. The famous Grand Pas de Deux from the ballet’s final scene was staged in the west as early as the 1940s, given first by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. The first full-length production mounted out-side of Russia was a completely new staging, produced and choreographed by Ninette de Valois for The Royal Ballet in 1950. The first full revival of the original Russian production to be staged in the West was by Ballet Rambert in 1962. In 1966 Rudolf Nureyev staged his version for the Vienna State Opera Ballet, with Minkus’ score adapted by John Lanchbery. In 1973, Nureyev filmed his version with the Australian Ballet, and Robert Helpmann as Don Quixote. Mikhail Baryshnikov mounted his own version in 1980 for American Ballet Theatre, a production that has been staged by many companies, including the Paris Opera Ballet. Today the ballet has been staged by many companies all over the world in many different versions, and is considered to be among the great classics of the ballet.
