"Music of Russian ballet" Automatic translate

Thursday, July 21, 20:00

By writing music for the ballet, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky created a miracle. And the point here is not even that this music (like everything with him!) Is brilliant. But the fact that ballet music sounded worthless turned out to be new and unexpected. Instead of the usual rhythmic, unobtrusive accompaniment of the dance, the surprised audience heard a work of symphonic scope. Music: with an infinitely beautiful melody… climaxes comparable to mountain ranges… a rhythm pulsating like life itself. And all this turned out to be extremely convenient for dancing. It is logical that the suites from Tchaikovsky’s ballets immediately sounded from the concert stage. And they still sound with great, unflagging success. The twentieth century has made significant adjustments to the art of stage dance. Listen how interesting and unexpected the traditions of the great predecessor were reflected in the work of Sergei Prokofiev!
