Revival of choreodrama (reviews of the performances The Pour Bride by M. Bolshakova and Iakinf by A. Polubentsev)

Abstract

The article is devoted to the premiere performances of two famous St. Petersburg choreographers. These are The Pour Bride by Maria Bolshakova at the Chelyabinsk Opera and Ballet Theater and Iakinf by Alexander Polubentsev at the Kazan Opera and Ballet Theater named after Musa Jalil. The Pour Bride is based on the famous drama by A. N. Ostrovsky. Iakinf is the story of the amazing fate of the scientist-monk Nikita Bichurin, Father Hyacinth (Iakinf), who discovered China to Russia. Analysis of ballets reveals the originality of artistic solutions of performances while observing the genre principles of choreodrama. Clear, dramatically intense action, psychologically reliable images of the heroes are embodied with the help of pantomime scenes and all kinds of dance forms — solo, ensemble, mass. In both ballets original librettos, music and choreography form an artistically significant narrative about the pressing problems of human existence.
