Toward the close of the 103rd theatrical season in the repertoire of our theater will play in all respects perfect. "Swan Lake" edition of Konstantin Sergeyev (1950.), Which is based on choreography by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov (1895), will receive a visual representation thanks to the tandem of artists Andrei Voitenko and Tatiana Noginova in total serve more than half a century at the Mariinsky Theatre.

"Swan Lake" - one of the most fantastic and perfect works of art, without exaggeration, the most famous ballet in the world. Of course the product is considered to be a recognized masterpiece of world classics, one of the great achievements of Russian culture. A White Swan has become a way of Russian Ballet, the symbol of its beauty and grandeur.

It is difficult to believe that the very first experience staging of "Swan Lake", which took place during the life of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, was unsuccessful. And only in the late 19th century, when for the play took Marius Petipa with Lev Ivanov, ballet suddenly seemed experienced a rebirth, there was a new, transformed from the German eclectic tales in the romantic ballet with strong emotions that excite the audience today, as well as one hundred and fifty years ago, and win the hearts of new fans around the world.

Petipa-Ivanov version, which viewers first saw at the Mariinsky Theatre in 1895, is considered a classic and is the basis of most subsequent productions of "Swan Lake", with the exception of modernist.

At present, there is sufficient editorial of this ballet, deserved authority and recognition, but the artistic director of the Ekaterinburg Ballet Vyacheslav Samodurov, a graduate of the Academy of Russian Ballet Vaganova, former Prime Minister of the Mariinsky Theatre and the direct heir to the academic traditions of the Imperial Ballet, of course, I could not stop the choice on any Alternatively, in addition to St. Petersburg. Received by Konstantin Sergeyev, based on choreography by Marius Petipa and Vyacheslav Ivanov, and that can be seen today at the Mariinsky Theatre, the stage was moved at the Yekaterinburg choreographers Dmitry Korneev & Irina Ivanova (St. Petersburg).

Variants of registration of "Swan Lake" is also not considered, but the performance of our artists had to find his own, original stage solution. "Fortunately, we did not need to invent anything special, - says artistic director Andrei Voitenko. - We made a beautiful vintage performance, in fact, the traditional ".

However, if the old production of "Swan Lake" at the stage of our theater was not sham swans, invariably causing delight of the audience, but now they appear. The artist decided to return to the childhood favorite of many spectacular reception - swans proplyvut front of an audience for a minute until the dancers onstage in the form of enchanted birds. Themselves as dancers costume designer Tatiana Noginova will put the pack, stylized antique, such as those in which the dart on the scene a romantic heroine in the late 19th century.

"These special packs silhouette - said the artist, - This is not a Moscow flat" pancakes ", leaving open the groin area, and not a" clove "30-40-ies, resembling a flower for its lush edge and nastrizhennymi teeth that are so loved in Bolshoi theater during the Stalin era. Vintage packs were much longer than those who are accustomed to modern dancers are omitted and therefore look more soberly, they had more decor. In the 19th century on the tires skirts "read" hints at the real wings that gave the "Swan" pictures of an idyllic view. All of our dancers will pen "head" and decorated with feathers corsages, "- promised to the artist.
