Ballet «Don Juan, or The Feast with the Statue»: From conception to implementation

Abstract

The article is devoted to the innovative ballet by G. Angiolini and K. Gluck «Don Juan, or The Feast with the Statue», created in the middle of the 18th century. For the first time in Russian musicology, the stages of Angiolini’s work on the performance, from the script concept to its numerous stage incarnations, are recreated. The paper considers copies of versions of musical manuscripts of K. Gluck’s ballet, made in the second half of the 18th century, and focuses on the author’s version of the musical score. This article examines the individual main components of the performance «Don Juan», which played a significant role in transforming the ballet genre and had a huge impact on composers and choreographers of the second half of the 18th century.
