Székesfehérvár Ballet Theatre: Swan Lake, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 2 October
- 2 Oct 2021 7:45 PM
- contemporary
Compared to Swan Lake, the well-known version of the classical ballet, I wished to rephrase the piece from another aspect, in a different light. In my interpretation, Siegfried is a young man with a split mind, who is being held captive by the traumas of his childhood as a result of his relationship with his mother.
Each character and event in the piece is, in fact, a projection of ...

The Capriccio for piano and orchestra was composed by Stravinsky between 1926 and 1929. The piece was revised in 1949.
