The Firebird

Choreographer Alexei Miroshnichenko

The director of The Firebird, principal ballet master of the Perm Ballet Alexey Miroshnichenko, promises to take audiences through the styles of the main choreographers of the XX-XXI centuries in reverse chronological order ― from the present back to Mikhail Fokine, the creator of the first choreographed version of The Firebird in 1910.

 

Petrushka

Choreographer Vladimir Varnava

Working with the character of Petrushka, Vladimir Varnava, the winner of the first Competition for young choreographers CONTEXT. Diana Vishneva and the youngest dancer to win the Golden Mask award in 2010 and who already holds two national awards, focuses on two topics: the opposition to creative individuality of the aggressive crowd and the free will of the artist in the context of a lifelike scenario. He defines the genre of his performance as "devil's clowning". The visual concept, developed by Galya Solodovnikova, is constructed using the device of “a theatre within a theatre”: the staging of the puppet show is inserted into the real space of the stage. Here, now going out into the light, now hiding in the shade, is the Creator who could be seen to resemble Igor Stravinsky. At the festival, the main role of Petrushka will be performed by Diana Vishneva.

 

The Fairy's Kiss

Choreographer Vyacheslav Samodurov

 

The choreographer of the first ballet is Viacheslav Samodurov, the artistic director of the ballet troupe of the Ekaterinburg Opera and Ballet Theatre, two times winner of the Golden Mask award.

The Fairy's Kiss is the latest of Stravinsky’s aforementioned ballets (1928; new revision 1950) and most romantic in mood. The libretto is based on some of the plot motifs of Andersen’s story The Ice-Maiden.The epigraph to the publication of the score was an acknowledgment of the composer: “I dedicate this ballet to the memory of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, identifying his Muse with the fairy. The ballet thus becomes an allegory. This Muse similarly branded Tchaikovsky with a kiss, whose mysterious imprint made itself felt in all the work of this great artist.”
