The Gala Concert of Ballet Stars of the Alexandrinsky Theatre, held as part of the Classical Ballet Festival, is a unique event that brings together the brightest artists on the stage of the country’s oldest theatre. The concert features winners of international competitions, People’s Artists, and leading soloists of the Mariinsky and Bolshoi Theatres. Opera and ballet stars, members of renowned companies, including Viktoria Tereshkina and Farukh Ruzimatov, consider it an honor to take part in this event. The first edition of this showcase of talent took place in St. Petersburg in 2013, while the international festival “Dance Open” is being held for the 25th time.
By tradition, “Dance Open” presents to residents and guests of St. Petersburg the finest achievements in ballet art. Gala concert programs traditionally include excerpts from classical ballets such as “Swan Lake,” “The Nutcracker,” and other legendary productions, as well as contemporary interpretations. Each spectator will witness how tradition and modernity intertwine within the cultural life of St. Petersburg, as fragments of dances and ballets create an emotionally насыщенная atmosphere.
On an April evening, audiences will once again enjoy beautiful music and appreciate the performances of soloists in both full productions and gala concerts — the level of Russian and international ballet stars is, without exaggeration, admired by thousands.
The event takes place at the Alexandrinsky Theatre, which is nearly 300 years old. This legendary temple of the arts has hosted premieres of Russian ballets such as “The Meek One,” “Crime and Punishment,” “Swans,” “Meditation,” and many others.
