George Balanchine’s ballets based on the «Raymonda»

Abstract

The article considers the compositions of Balanchine inspired by Petipa’s «Raymonda». Structural analysis of the «Pas de dix» - Balanchine version of the Hungarian grand pas - is given in comparison with the form, recorded at the Mariinsky Theatre («Raymonda» in ed. K. Sergeev) and in the reconstruction of S. Vikharev («Raymonda» at La Scala). In the description of Balanchine’s ballet «Raymonda Variations» the autor explores music and dance parallels and differences with the original.
