At the beginning of last year, the presentation of the Paris Opera’s 2015/16 This season was denoted by extremely strong moments. In addition to the season was dedicated to audacity, for our artists and all the Opera’s teams, but also for performances in themselves, and to the many new productions of which I will not bring audiences, encouraged to come through the doors of the Palais Garnier and the Opéra up one in particular here, I recall first and foremost the Pre-openings reserved for young Bastille. The first season under a new management team is always a singular moment, audiences, for I see in them an efficient means to open our doors: nearly 60% of these an encounter, a discovery of others, of their expectations, of their dreams, and this is younger audience had never been to the Opera, and our mission now is to keep them with us. particularly true at the Paris Opera, with its numerous, diverse, and open audiences. The free concert for the Fête de la musique – another first for the Opera – is part of the same will for openness. I am also elated about the birth of the Opera Academy in September 2015, The time has come to look back on the past season with this report, the and about the progress that our institution has made over a few months on social media and, presentation and content of which are entirely renovated. The following pages offer an on a more original note, on our 3e Scène.

The first, very comforting observation is that audiences have answered the call.

  • Neoclassical Choreographer GEORGE BALANCHINE (1904–83) (Program 01: Symphony in C) Is One of the 20Th Century’S Most Influential and Innovative Artists
    Neoclassical choreographer GEORGE BALANCHINE (1904–83) (Program 01: Symphony in C) is one of the 20th century’s most influential and innovative artists. Born in St. Petersburg, he trained at the Imperial Ballet School and joined the Mariinsky Ballet before leaving Russia to become ballet master for Serge Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes in Paris. There, Balanchine choreographed several ballets, including Prodigal Son and Apollon Musagète (later renamed Apollo). After Diaghilev’s death, Balanchine worked in Europe until arts patron Lincoln Kirstein invited him to start a company in the U.S. “But first a school,” was Balanchine’s famous reply, and he founded the School of American Ballet in 1934. In 1946, he and Kirstein started Ballet Society, which later became New York City Ballet. As ballet master and principal choreographer, Balanchine created more than 400 dance works, many of which are in the repertory of SF Ballet. AUGUST BOURNONVILLE (1805–79) (Program 04: La Sylphide) was a Danish dancer, choreographer, ballet master, and director of the Royal Danish Ballet from 1848–77. After training in Copenhagen with his father and choreographer Vincenzo Galeotti at the Royal Ballet School and in Paris with dancer Auguste Vestris, he joined the Royal Danish Ballet as a soloist. In 1830, he shifted his attention to choreography, creating a unique style that emphasized lightness, beauty, quick footwork, and expressive mime work. At a time when European ballet favored female dancers, Bournonville’s ballets gave equal weight to male and female roles. Only a few of his ballets have survived, including La Sylphide (1836), Napoli (1842), and The Kermesse in Bruges (1851).
