The first point is the king of beautiful melody. Swan Lake was written by Tchaikovsky, a great Russian composer, in 1876. He constructed a grand music scene by symphonic writing, and many pieces of music became classics handed down from generation to generation.
In this ballet, there is a whimpering wind music that expresses the pure inner world of Princess Aogueta. There are gorgeous and clear dance music, which shows the sunshine and vitality of Prince Ferid.
The second point is pure fairy tales. The story of Swan Lake is based on folk stories, that is, the devil turned a beautiful girl into a swan, but the power of love and justice finally defeated evil.
At first, Swan Lake had two different endings, usually mixed performances: in the first version, the prince was fascinated by hallucinations and finally died with Princess Aogueta; However, in the famous St. Petersburg version, although the music at the end is sad, it is a happy ending in which love triumphs over evil.
The third point is the shock of 32 "whipping". In the third act of Swan Lake, the black swan has to do 32 one-legged spins called "whipping" in one breath.
This stunt was created by Italian ballerina Pirina Legna in 1892 and appeared in the performance in St. Petersburg. Dancers use delicate feelings, light dancing, tenacious endurance and perfect skills to interpret the completely different spiritual worlds of white swan and black swan. This stunt is still preserved in Swan Lake and has become a touchstone to measure the strength of ballerinas and dance troupes.
