Act I Scene 1: The Park of a Castle Prince Siegfried and his friends are celebrating his coming of age at a private party. The guests drink to his health and the jester entertains them with his antics. The Prince is warned that his mother, the Princess Regent, is approaching. She is displeased with her son’s behavior and she presents him with a crossbow. After the Princess has gone, the partying begins anew. Twilight falls. The guests depart and the Prince is left alone in the park. High above, Siegfried catches sight of a flock of white swans and the vision stirs the hunter’s urge in him. Seizing his bow, the Prince makes his way off into the heart of the forest.
White swans are swimming near the shore; they are beautiful young maidens who have been trans- formed by the evil magician von Rothbart. Only at night can they assume human form and the only power on earth which can break this evil spell is devoted love. Siegfried appears. He sees one of the white birds come to shore and draws his bow to shoot it. The bird suddenly turns into a beautiful woman—it is Odette, Queen of the swan-maidens. Odette’s beauty enthralls the Prince and he tries to capture her. She, however, is afraid of the evil magician and, as she avoids Siegfried, she disappears in the midst of the swan-maidens. Siegfried runs after Odette and vows eternal love and fidelity to her. Odette’s heart responds in the same way to Siegfried’s passionate love. Dawn breaks. Odette bids Siegfried a tender farewell and the white swans glide slowly away across the lake. Act II
Scene 3: A Ball at the Castle Siegfried must choose a bride from among the well bred maidens who have been invited, but he re- mains indifferent to them all because he has given his heart to Odette. Only at his mother’s insistence does he dance with any of the prospective brides. He must, however, choose one of them, and as a token of his love he must give his chosen bride a bouquet. As he faces this dilemma, however, a fanfare of trumpets heralds the arrival of new guests— the magician von Rothbart and Odile, his daughter. The Prince is struck by her resemblance to Odette. Von Rothbart wants the Prince to fall in love with Odile so that he will break his vow of eternal love and fidelity; Odette will then remain in the sorcerer’s power forever. It is for this reason that he has given his own daughter Odette’s form and features. Odile seduces Siegfried, who is fascinated by her charm. He announces to his mother that the beautiful Odile is his choice. The wicked magician is jubilant. cont. Swan Lake Suddenly Siegfried sees a vision of the true swan-maiden outside the castle window and realizes that he has been deceived into breaking his vow. In despair, he rushes to the lake to find his beloved Odette.
Act III Scene 4: The Lakeside, at Night The swan-maidens stand dejected and sad. Odette has told them what has happened. Siegfried rushes in. He begs Odette to forgive him and he professes his undying love for her, but the enraged sorcerer summons the black swans and commands them to separate Odette and Siegfried. Siegfried grapples with the sorcerer. Fearless in the encounter, he breaks von Rothbart’s wing. The sorcerer col- lapses, his power gone, and he dies. Love has broken the evil spell. The sun rises and shines radiantly on the Prince and Odette, and on the maidens whom Siegfried has rescued.

Maestro! Travel & Touring Hotels Who’s Who Mariinsky Orchestra Who’s Who THE MARIINSKY BALLET is closely linked with the entire history of the development of Russian choreographic art which began more than two and a half centuries ago. An important role in the establishment and evolution of Russian ballet was played by foreign dance masters. At the end of the 18th century, Franz Hilverding, Gasparo Angiolini, Giuseppe Canziani, and Charles le Picq were all working in St. Petersburg. As far back as the 1790s, however, the first Russian ballet teacher, Ivan Valberkh, came to the fore. The main sphere of his activities was in a small mime ballet company. He sought to make his productions rich in subject matter and to create recognizable, lifelike images. Ballet divertissements, reflecting his response to the events of the Napoleonic War, occupied a special place in his work. The history of St. Petersburg ballet in the 19th century was associated with the activities of Charles Didelot, Jules Perrot, and Arthur Saint-Léon. In 1869, the position of principal ballet master was entrusted to Marius Petipa who markedly raised the professional standards of the company. The peak accomplishments of this famous choreographer were ballets staged in the period of his collaboration with the composers Pyotr Tchaikovsky and Alexander Glazunov—The Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake, and Raymonda. The talents of many generations of ballerinas have been revealed in these works —from Yekaterina Vyazem, Marina Semenova, and Galina Ulanova to younger dancers who are just starting their careers at the Mariinsky Theatre. At the turn of the 19th century, the Mariinsky Ballet produced such great dancers as Anna Pavlova, Mathilde Kschessinska, Tamara Karsavina, Olga Preobrazhenskaya, Olga Spesivtseva, Vaslav Nijinsky, and Nikolai and Sergei Legat. Many of them brought glory to Russian ballet during the legendary Saisons russes in Paris which brought the pioneering works of Michel Fokine to Europe. The first years following the Russian Revolution ushered in difficult times for the Mariinsky Theatre. Almost all of its leading artists abandoned the company. Nevertheless, the classical repertoire was retained during this period. In 1922 when Fyodor Lopukhov—a daring innovator and a brilliant connoisseur of the past—became head of the company, its repertoire was enriched with new productions, in particular ballets dealing with contemporary life. Galina Ulanova, Alexei Yermolayev, Marina Semenova, and Vakhtang Chabukiani all danced at the Mariinsky Theatre during that period. Ballet in the 1930s was largely influenced by dramatic theater, and this was reflected in such productions as Rostislav Zakharov’s The Fountain of Bakhchisarai, Vakhtang Chabukiani’s The Heart of the Hills and Leonid Lavrovsky’s Romeo and Juliet.
The 1960s saw Spartacus and Choreographic Miniatures by Leonid Yakobson being staged, as well as productions of The Stone Flower and The Legend of Love by Yuri Grigorovich, and The Coast of Hope and The Leningrad Symphony by Igor Belsky—ballets which revived the traditions of symphonic dances. The success of these productions would obviously have been impossible without superb performers. During the period of the 1950s to 1970s, the company’s dancers included Irina Kolpakova, Natalia Makarova, Alla Osipenko, Irina Gensler, Alla Sizova, Rudolf Nureyev, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Valery Panov, Yuri Soloviev, and Anatoly Sapogov. La Sylphide and Napoli by August Bournonville appeared in the repertoire towards the end of the 1970s, as did fragments of old choreography by Perrot, Saint-Léon, and Coralli. Roland Petit and Maurice Béjart came to work with the company for a period. The present-day repertoire of the Mariinsky Ballet includes, along with Petipa’s legacy—Swan Lake, Raymonda, Le Corsaire, La Bayadère, and The Sleeping Beauty—ballets staged by Michel Fokine, George Balanchine, Frederic Ashton, William Forsythe, Alexei Ratmansky, Angelin Preljocaj, and Wayne McGregor. Ever since 2001, the Mariinsky Theatre has hosted the annual International Ballet Festival Mariinsky. Its participants include the greatest soloists from leading ballet companies from all over the globe.
was born in Votkinsk, Russia. His family moved from the Ural Mountains to St. Petersburg when he was eight, and he took up law studies on the Mariinsky Ballet urging of his parents, despite his musical talents. He eventually entered the St. Petersburg Con- servatory, and moved to Moscow to teach at the conservatory which is now named for him. (His talent attracted the support of a patron, who paid him a monthly stipend until 1890.) He made his debut as a composer in 1865 with Characteristic
of his oeuvre of nearly 170 works, including The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker, many of which remain staples of the ballet canon. MARIUS PETIPA (1818—1910, choreogra- pher) was a Marseille-born choreographer and dancer whose 60-plus years of work at the Mariinsky profoundly influenced classical ballet, shaping it into the art form familiar today. He was trained at a young age by his father, and made his performance debut in Nantes, France in 1838, and then toured in Europe and the US before alighting in Spain, whose influences can be found in his later ballets produced in Russia. He debuted at the Mariinsky in 1847 in
was appointed chief choreographer in 1969, creating more than 60 ballets that have become the foundation of contemporary classical ballet. He worked on productions of The Nutcracker,
ballet’s audeinces. LEV IVANOV (1834—1901, choreographer), born in Moscow, was a ballet dancer and as- sistant to Marius Petipa at the Imperial Russian Ballet. Ivanov joined the Imperial Ballet after completing school there in 1852, and eventually was promoted to principal dancer in 1869. He also was a rehearsal master, stage manager, and assistant ballet master, staging approximately 20 new ballets or revivals, most often taking second billing to Petipa. He implemented some impor- tant innovations, placing an emphasis on the compositional and emotional aspects of the mu- sic, rather than focusing primarily on the abilities of the soloists’ virtuosity. Among the best-known of his ballets: portions of The Nutcracker (Snow Flake Waltz), Swan Lake, Cinderella, La Fille mal gardée, and Coppélia. VALERY GERGIEV is artistic and general direc- tor of the Mariinsky Theatre. He established and directs festivals including the Stars of the White Nights, the Gergiev Festival (the Netherlands), and the Moscow Easter Festival. In 1997 follow- ing Sir Georg Solti’s death, Valery Gergiev took over the World Orchestra for Peace. The maestro is principal conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra and, starting in 2015, will become principal conductor of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra. At the Mariinsky Theatre Gergiev has overseen the emergence of a plethora of world- class singers. Under his direction the theater’s opera and ballet repertoires have become much richer and more diverse, now including a broad range of works from 18th- to 20th-century classics as well as music by contemporary composers. In 2006 the Concert Hall opened on the site of workshops that had burned down, and May 2, 2013 saw the opening of the new Mariinsky Theatre (Mariinsky-II) alongside the historical building—thus the Mariinsky Theatre was transformed into a theater and concert complex unparalleled in Russia. Established by Gergiev in 2009, the Mariinsky recording label has already released more than 25 discs that have won praise and acclaim from critics and audiences alike across the globe. He works with the Metropolitan Opera; the Vienna, New York, and Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestras; and the Filarmonica della Scala. In 2014 the Children’s Chorus of Russia, founded on the initiative of Gergiev on the basis of the All-Russian Choral Society, first performed a program at the Mariin- sky-II and subsequently took part in the Closing Ceremony of the XXII Olympic Games in Sochi. Gergiev’s numerous awards and prizes include prestigious government decorations from Russia, Germany, Italy, France, Japan, the Netherlands, and Poland. He is dean of the faculty of arts of the St. Petersburg State University, co-chairman of the Organizational Committee of the XV International Tchaikovsky Competition, chairman of the All-Russian Choral Society, and honorary president of the Edinburgh International Festival. In 2012 the maestro was awarded the titles of Who’s Who Photo by Valentin Baranovsky, courtesy Mariinsky Theatre Who’s Who honorary doctor of the Moscow State University and honorary professor of the St. Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatoire.
