Two premieres of the ballet Raymonda
Abstract
The paper is devoted to two premieres of the ballet Raymonda by A. K. Glazunov, which took place in May 2023 at the Primorsky Stage of the Mariinsky Theater in Vladivostok and in June at the Samara Academic Theater named after D. D Shostakovich. Both performances were staged by the artistic directors of the ballet companies Eldar Aliev in Vladivostok and Yuri Burlaka in Samara. The first one is based on the historical production by Marius Petipa (1898) edited by Konstantin Sergeev (1948), the second one is a reconstruction of the lost Moscow production by Alexander Gorsky (1908). The review noted the originality of each production, its artistic merits, and evaluated the work of the performers.
