| When one goes to the ballet today to see Sleeping Beauty, the chances are that he will not see The Sleeping Beauty. Even in the big cities the professional are more likely to produce a consolidation or an amalgam. Peter Martins of New York City Ballet does a condensed version. Few remain who can or will undertake the classic ballet in three acts with prologue, created in the most-notable-ever collaboration of choreographer, composer, And book-writer. Tchaikovsky wrote the music measure-by-measure to suit perfectly the each dancing step as choreographed by the great Petipa. On 15 January 1890 in St. Petersburg, Russia, the ballet was first performed in the very theater where Andrei Bossov grew up. The ballet stands today as the singular quintessence of classical ballet. Bossov Ballet Theatre’s artistic staff is one of the few capable of handing down to its students “the real thing”. Bossov Ballet Theatre performed The Sleeping Beauty in its entirety in the summer of 2004. |
