Tschaikowsky, Peter - The Sleeping Beauty

Marius Petipa

DVD

' The Sleeping Beauty' erzählt die Geschichte der Prinzessin Aurora, die - einem alten Fluch folgend - in hundertjährigen Schlaf fällt, als sie sich an einer Spindel verletzt. Erst der Kuss eines Prinzen kann sie wieder zum Leben erwecken. Der lange Schluß-Akt des Balletts bringt die Hochzeitsfeier auf die Bühne, zu der Tchaikovsky eine Reihe weiterer Märchenfiguren eingeladen hat. Tchaikovsky, der allgemein als schwermütig bekannt war, lebte während der Arbeiten an ' The Sleeping Beauty' sichtlich auf. Die regelmäßigen Besuche der dreijährigen Tochter eines Bekannten weckten in dem fast fünzigjährigen Komponisten die Lust am Spiel - und am märchenhaften Stoff der ' Sleeping Beauty'. " Interpreteurs" Princess Aurora - Irina Kolpakova Prince Desire - Sergei Berezhnoi The Lilac Fairy - Lubov Kunakova King Florestan - Vladimir Ponomaryov The Queen - Angelina Kabarova Carabosse - Vladimir Lopukhov Orchestra of the Leningrad Theatre of Opera and Ballet Conductor - Viktor Fedotov
