ULIANA LOPATKINA AND “THE WORLD BALLET STARS”
GRAND BALLET GALA
“GREAT DUETS”
DEDICATED TO RUDOLF NURIEV AND MARGO FONTEYN
On April, 24 and 25 in Moscow Musical Theatre named after Staniskavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Russian ballet prima Uliana Lopatkina will unite her forces with “The world ballet stars” to present a Grand Ballet Gala “The Great Duet”, dedicated to the Russian ballet legend Rudolf Nuriev and his stage partner, a great English ballet dancer Margo Fonteyn.
Rudolf Nuriev is an absolute icon in the ballet world and his duet with the brilliant Margo Fonteyn will forever remain among one of the most astonishing in the ballet history! She was 43 and he was 24 when they first met in 1962 and they have continued to work together for the next 15 years. They have first performed together in the Royal Opera Ballet production of “Giselle”, then the great ballet master Ashton has specifically for them created a “Margaret and Arman” ballet. After the “Swan Lake” in the Vienna Opera House in October, 1964, they gave 89 encores – an absolute record!
Uliana Lopatkina, a contemporary symbol of classic ballet, dedicates this show to Nuriev’s and Fonteyn’s beautiful duet!
Programme includes masterpieces from Nuriev’s repertoire, performed by him in Grand Opera Garnier, Covent-Garden, La Scala, Mariinsky and Bolshoi theatres. Uliana Lopatkina will be joined on stage by the most famous stars of modern days ballet, including the soloists from Mariinsky and Bolhoi theatres, Grand Opera (Paris), Royal London Ballet, La Scala (Milan).
