Bolshoi theatre will show the "Don Quixote" ballet online today at 9 PM. You may watch it on the official YouTube-channel.
Use is made in the production of choreography by Rostislav Zakharov (Dance with Guitars and Jig to music by V. Soloviev-Sedoy); by Kasiyan Goleizovsky (Gipsy Dance to music by V. Zhelobinsky); by Anatoly Simachev (Fandango to music by E. Napravnik).
Moscow has a special relationship with this ballet. Don Quixote is the only great classical ballet to be born in Moscow, rather than in Paris or Petersburg. Its bubbling torrent of joie de vivre, bold infringement of the canons, impulsive temperament and infinitely complex technique make it a model of the “Moscow style”. Balletomanes describe DQ as the visiting card of the Moscow school of ballet. In the course of 140 years, it has been presented at the Bolshoi Theatre nearly one thousand times.
The video will be available in 24 hours.
