Finally, under the guidance of the fairy, the handsome Prince fremont met the sleeping and beautiful Princess Aurora and fell in love with her at first sight. With the help of great love, he overcame many difficulties and awakened the princess who had been sleeping for a hundred years with a sacred kiss. The whole kingdom woke up, and in a grand wedding, all's well that ends well.
Characteristics and state
The director of Sleeping Beauty is Marius Pitipa, the most outstanding Russian ballet master. Pitipa is known as "the pinnacle of classical ballet" because of its extraordinary dance creation and musical interpretation ability, as well as its unique artistic means of expressing people's rich emotions with body movements and dance modeling. There are many classic dances in the ballet Sleeping Beauty, such as Adagio Rose and Wedding Duet in the first act, Bluebird Duet, wreath waltz and so on. Some paragraphs have always been a must-have item in international ballet competitions. They fully show the charm, movement, coordination and balance of ballet art, giving people unlimited beauty enjoyment.
The music of Sleeping Beauty is equally wonderful, which was created by the famous Russian composer Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky. Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky once said in a letter to his good friend Nadezhda von Meek: "... I seem to think this ballet music is my best creation. The theme is so poetic and musical that I write it with great enthusiasm, and a valuable musical work depends on this enthusiasm. " It is based on this enthusiasm that Sleeping Beauty's music can last forever. For example, the waltz selected from the first act has become one of the most famous waltzes in the world.
Besides, the ballet Sleeping Beauty is not only beautiful in dance and music, but also famous for its luxurious costumes, props, scenery and lighting. In particular, the version of the British Royal Ballroom selected for this performance is extremely exquisite in dance beauty and costume design, which complements the whole music and dance and highlights the luxury of the royal nobility. You can definitely enjoy a visual feast outside the elegant dance art.
/kloc-For more than 0/00 years, the ballet Sleeping Beauty has created an unprecedented spectacle of theater dance with its shocking music, magnificent dancing posture, elegant costumes and luxurious scenery, attracting dancers and audiences all over the world. Sleeping Beauty is a classic representative of "classical ballet", but after modern packaging and interpretation, this somewhat dignified ballet adds a gorgeous modern atmosphere. Vividly expressed the victory of light over darkness, the victory of justice over evil and the praise of faithful love, giving people a refreshing feeling.
I believe that after reading this version of the ballet, you will have a clearer and deeper understanding of the immortal position of Sleeping Beauty in the history of ballet art, and you will also enjoy its unparalleled artistic enjoyment.
Nutcracker ballet
Waltz of flowers
Overview of dance drama
The ballet The Nutcracker is one of the best ballets in the world. On the one hand, it attracts thousands of audiences in Qian Qian because of its magnificent scenes and humorous performances, but more importantly, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky's music endows ballet with strong attraction. The Nutcracker is adapted from the fairy tale The Nutcracker and the Mouse King by the famous German writer Hoffman. The play is divided into two acts, depicting the children's unique world. The music of ballet is full of pure and mysterious myths and has strong characteristics of children's music. The plot is roughly as follows: At Christmas, the girl Mary got a nutcracker. At night, she dreamed that the nutcracker turned into a prince and led a group of her toys to fight against the mouse soldiers. Later, she was taken to Jam Mountain, where she was welcomed by the candy fairy and enjoyed toys, dances and feasts.
Characteristics of dance drama
The Nutcracker is a typical work of Tchaikovsky in his later period. It skillfully uses strings to make the background of the work shine brightly, showing a kind of realism that is rare in general music, especially the children's voice in Snowflake Waltz and the children's instruments in other music in the first act. The music created for traditional musical instruments is also full of creativity, especially in the episode of the second act, Spanish dance represents chocolate, Arabic dance represents coffee, and China dance represents tea; However, the most beautiful part of the whole song is the piano solo in "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy", which, according to the description of the script, is a charming suggestion that water drops "splash from the fountain".
Where the melody is relatively dull, Tchaikovsky's handling method is still outstanding. The motivation of the second act "Dancing for Couples" is only a simple descending scale, but the harmony and clause mode and the warm timbre of strings give it strong feelings. Tchaikovsky's orchestra went beyond the theme in the overture: instead of cello and bass instruments, it was divided into six parts with violin and viola, and he added triangle iron and piccolo to simulate the sound of classical music orchestra. This overture is sparkling and full of childlike interest. Although the scale is not large, the timbre is full and clear, which is just suitable for Christmas Eve.
The premiere was held in St. Petersburg on March 1892. Nine months before that, Tchaikovsky created a suite from the whole song, which made the most distinctive tune in The Nutcracker popular. The suite begins with the overture, the first act is the March, and the second act is the dance of the candy fairy. Then there is the second act. During the intermission, there are four programs: Russian dance, Arabic dance, China dance and Milliton dance. The finale is the Waltz of Flowers in the second act, which is also one of Tchaikovsky's most famous waltzes.

dance drama
Arranging a work without real plot and cliche, almost completely according to Petipa's instructions, Tchaikovsky did not have to worry about the plot, but showed his talent with unforgettable melody and burned his imagination as an orchestral composer. Although sometimes I can't help but feel that this ballet is empty-a child's fantasy of the candy kingdom on Christmas Eve (Martha got many presents on Christmas Eve, but her favorite is The Nutcracker. But the naughty brother took it away and broke it. Little Martha put him to sleep like a patient, but she didn't feel asleep. During her sleep, many mice came out of the room and all the cake toys moved. The nutcracker leads the toy against the mouse, and she is going to lose. Martha took off one of her little shoes and killed the mouse king. All the mice have escaped. Then the magic was lifted and the nutcracker became a beautiful prince. In order to thank Martha for her help, he took her through the snow-covered forest in winter and came to the kingdom of the candy fairy. Here, Tchaikovsky decorated the dance music with the most attractive and melodious orchestral colors. At this time, the third of the three ballets created by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, according to the music of the ballets, formed a suite, which was divided into three sections and eight songs:
