Russian Seasons of XXI Century - Special Matinee: Cleopatrea - Ida Rubinstein/Chopiniana/The Firebird archiveFollowing its triumphant Coliseum debut in 2011 and four successful seasons in Paris Theatre des Champs-Elysees Saisons Russes du XX1e Siecle returns to London. Cleopatra - Ida Rubinstein - An original idea by Andris Liepa this exquisite production recounts the story of the creation of Fokine's ballet Cleopatra, for Ida Rubinstein in 1909. Choreographer Patrick de Bana makes some great choreography in this new ballet, and has chosen music by composers including Glazunov, Rimsky-Korsakov, Gabriel Faure, Maurice Ravel and the wonderful music of new composer Omar Faruk Tekbilek. The world premiere was staged on 28th June 2012 at Paris Champs-Elysees Theatre to press reviews of ?beautiful' ?interesting' ?wonderful' ?great work in the choreography' ?a real study of Egyptian style'. Chopiniana - In 1909 Anna Pavlova, Tamara Karsavina, and Vaslav Nijinsky conquered Paris in this Romantic one-act ballet then entitled Les Sylphides. Consisting of four scenes to the music of a polonaise, nocturne, mazurka and tarantella by Glazunov, the ballet has no plot, but conveys the mood of reverie and melancholy between dream and reality of a young poet in the world of the Sylphides. The Firebird - Based on the Russian folk tale of the Firebird... the mythical character who protects Prince Ivan, the hero of the tale. Originally created for Tamara Karsavina and choreographed by Michel Fokine. It was Stravinsky's breakthrough work of 1910.
