Foto: Arnaud Stephenson El llac dels cignes va ser la primera partitura de ballet escrita per un compositor simfònic: Piotr I. Txaikovski. Amb la revisió definitiva que Marius Petipa i Lev Ivanov van fer de la coreografia original, l’any 1895 aquest ballet esdevingué immediatament sinònim de la gran escola russa i, per extensió, del ballet clàssic. Per bé que en la seva llarga història hi ha hagut intents reiterats d’actualitzar-ne l’argument romàntic –basat en contes tradicionals russos–, la versió de Petipa ha resistit perfectament els embats de la modernitat i sempre ha respectat la perfecció etèria assolida pel mestre. Teresa Lloret Filòloga El lago de los cisnes fue la primera partitura de ballet escrita por un compositor sinfónico: Piotr I. Tchaikovsky. Con la revisión definitiva de Marius Petipa y Lev Ivanov de la coreografía original, en 1895 este ballet se convierte de inmediato en sinónimo de la gran escuela rusa y, por extensión, del ballet clásico. Aunque en su larga historia han existido reiterados intentos de poner al día su romántico argumento –basado en cuentos tradicionales rusos–, la versión de Petipa ha resistido perfectamente los embates de la modernidad, respetando siempre la perfección etérea lograda por el maestro.

We’re glad you’re here. The holiday season is always a busy time for the Dayton Performing Arts Alliance, and I want to make sure that you don’t miss any of it. We’re excited to be offering these performances of Dayton Ballet’s The Nutcracker with the sensational Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, and we’re also looking forward to a special presentation of the wonderful jazz music from “A Charlie Brown Christmas” with the Jim Martinez Quartet on December 28. Attending The Nutcracker with family and friends is a cherished holiday tradition. Other December traditions include the Philharmonic’s presentation of Handel’s Messiah on December 18 and our New Year’s Eve concert on December 31. There’s also our free “Bach’s Lunch” concerts with the Carillon Brass; two performances at the Loft Theatre on Friday, December 13. Mainstage performances like The Nutcracker are some of our most visible offerings, but equally important performances take place in classrooms all around the Miami Valley. Over 70,000 young people in the Miami Valley benefited from DPAA education programs in the past year, including the Dayton Ballet School, Philharmonic Ensembles, Opera on the Road, Q the Music, Young People’s and Magic Carpet Concerts, ArtsConnect, and the Dayton Philharmonic Youth Orchestra, Youth Strings, and Junior Strings. Those programs are made possible through the support of generous contributors to our Annual Fund Campaign.

Over the centuries, dancers and dance makers have shaped and changed ballet, taking its technique to fresh and exciting places. In every generation a handful of visionaries can inspire us to see ballet through a new lens, and in turn inspire others to create. Volt is a celebration of this process. I first saw Wayne McGregor’s work in the early 2000s. The piece, brainstate, featured Deborah Bull, then a principal of The Royal Ballet, and it was riveting. Wayne went on to create works for the world’s most prestigious ballet companies.
