    Swan Lake Study Guide 2017---18-18 Presented By the Department of Community Engagement Table of Contents The Quintessential Ballet 3 Milwaukee Ballet’s Swan Lake 4 Choreographic Birds of a Feather – Petipa, Ivanov & Pink 5 Did You Know? – Matthew Bourne 14 Behind the Music – Pyotr Tchaikovsky 15 Appendix A: Being A Good Audience Member 16 Sources and Special Thanks 17 2 The Quintessential Ballet Welcome to the Study Guide for Swan Lake , perhaps the world’s most widely recognized ballet aside from The Nutcracker . It has been called the “quintessential ballet” (quintessential means the purest and most perfect or the embodiment of, in this case, ballet!) and is often the show that pops into people’s minds when the word ballet is mentioned. Since its premiere in Moscow, Russia, it has been presented in over 150 versions by more than 100 companies in at least 25 different countries. That’s a lot of swans! Swan Lake didn’t start out successfully – which is surprising, considering its fame today. It premiered on February 20, 1877, and although Tchaikovsky’s spectacular music was used from the beginning, the choreography, originally done by Julius Reisinger, was less than stellar. A critic who was at the performance wrote, "Mr. Reisinger’s dances are weak in the extreme.... Incoherent waving of the legs that continued through the course of four hours - is this not torture? The corps de ballet stamp up and down in the same place, waving their arms like a windmill’s vanes - and the soloists jump about the stage in gymnastic steps." Ouch! Unfortunately Reisinger failed to mesh his choreography with the psychological, beautiful music Tchaikovsky created.

    Teacher’s Handbook 1 Edited by: Carol Meeder – Director of Arts Education February 2006 Cover Photo: Jennifer Langenstein – Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre Principal Dancer Aaron Ingley – Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre Corps de Ballet Dancer Ric Evans – Photographer 2 Introduction Dear Educator, We have often thanked you, the academic community and educators of our children, for being partners with us in Arts Education. We have confirmed how the arts bring beauty, excitement, and insight into the experience of everyday living. Those of us who pursue the arts as the work of our lives would find the world a dark place without them. We have also seen, in a mirror image from the stage, how the arts bring light, joy, and sparkle into the eyes and the lives of children and adults in all walks of life. Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre strives not only to entertain but to demonstrate the significance and importance of presenting our art in the context of past history, present living, and vision for the future. In this quest we present traditional ballets based on classic stories revered for centuries, such as Coppelia and Cinderella; and contemporary ballets by artists who are living, working, and creating everyday, such as our jazz program Indigo In Motion and the premiers we have done to the music of Sting, Bruce Springsteen, and Paul Simon. In this way we propel our art into the future, creating new classics that subsequent generations will call traditional. It is necessary to see and experience both, past and present. It enhances our life and stirs new ideas. We have to experience where we came from in order to develop a clear vision of where we want to go.

    TchaikovskyTchaikovsky BiographyBiography Piotr Ilich Tchaikovsky was born in 1840 in Vótkinsk, Russia, and he died in 1893. He was a composer from the romantic period and he composed many classical works, however I am only going to focus on two of them, the ballets of Swan Lake and The Nutcracker Suit. He was born in a middle class family and his education was focused on preparing him to be a civil servant, in spite of his musical talent. But against his familiy’s wishes, he decided to persue his musical career in the Saint Petersburg Conservatory. His life had many personal crises and times of depression due to his repressed homosexuality and to his fear of others finding out about it. The Swan Lake is a ballet composed by Tchaikovsky in 1876. It consists in four acts and it’s inspirated in Russian folk tales. It tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer's curse. The choreographer of the original production was Julius Reisinger. The ballet was premiered by the Bolshoi Ballet on 4 March 1877 at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow.

  • EUGENE ONEGIN Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
    EUGENE ONEGIN Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Opera in 3 acts Sung in Russian Recorded August 2007 at the Salzburg Festival Act 1: 73 minutes, Act 2: 42 minutes, Act 3: 42 minutes. TOTAL: 157 minutes. Conductor | Daniel Barenboim Director | Andrea Breth Sets | Martin Zehetgruber Costumes | Silke Willrett & Marc Weeger Lights | Friedrich Rom Orchestra Wiener Philharmoniker Starring Eugene Onegin | Peter Mattei Tatyana | Anna Samuil Olga | Ekaterina Gubanova Lensky | Joseph Kaiser Prince Gremin | Ferruccio Furlanetto Larina, Lady of the Manor | Reneé Morloc Presentation Tchaikovsky is best known for his symphonic scores and ballets such as the “Nutcracker,“ “Swan Lake” and “Sleeping Beauty.“ Yet his operas also occupy a place of honor in his oeuvre, and two of them, “Eugene Onegin” and “The Queen of Spades,” both based on novels by Pushkin, are among his very finest works. The plot of “Onegin” is quickly told: on a Russian country estate, awkward, inexperienced young Tatyana is seized by a sudden passion for the handsome, blasé new neighbor Eugene Onegin. She writes him a love letter, but he makes it clear to her that he is not interested. Later, Tatyana‘s sister flirts with Onegin, her fiancé challenges him to a duel and is killed by Onegin. Years later, Onegin returns, finds that Tatyana has married an aged prince, and tries to win her back but fails... Tchaikovsky called his opera a sequence of “lyric scenes.” Its structure prefigures narrative techniques that later came into use in cinema: abrupt cuts and chronological leaps, intimate close-ups, atmospheric interjections... Bearing this practically cinematic structure in mind, director Andrea Breth has produced an intimate chamber play that mines the depths of veracity, precision and charisma of her singer-actors.
