SUMMARY:Odessa National Opera Ballet-Les Sylphides
DESCRIPTION:The ballet Les Sylphides\, by the ingenious Frédéric Chopin\, is a refined example of neo-Romantic ballet from the early 20th century\, an era in which dance-theatre was seeking new means of expression. The great choreographer and dance reformer Michel Fokine revives the traditions of Romanticism with great respect\, seeking\, as he himself noted\, “to restore conventional ballet dance to the moment of its highest development.” Based on Cervantes’s novella “La Gitanilla\,” Marius Petipa’s “Paquita” goes beyond the bounds of a simple ballet performance; it is a historical treasure that preserves\, unaltered\, the authenticity and grandeur of nineteenth-century classical ballet. The performance stands as a tribute from a new generation of dancers to the aesthetic of this great choreographer and unsurpassed master of the classical style. \nWith the Principals\, Soloists\, and Corps de Ballet of the Odessa National Opera Ballet \nhttps://www.megaron.gr/en/event/odessa-national-opera-ballet-les-sylphides/

SUMMARY:GYSO – Vassilis Varvaressos – Dionyssis Grammenos
DESCRIPTION:Although today they rank among the leading works of the symphonic repertoire\, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 and Symphony No. 5 did not have an untroubled beginning. When the composer presented his Concerto to the pianist Nikolai Rubinstein\, the latter dismissed it as “trivial and clumsily written.” And yet the Concerto — with its distinctive melody following the opening chords\, a folk tune the composer had heard from a blind beggar on the streets of Kyiv — was destined to become one of the most beloved works in the history of music. The Fifth Symphony becomes the arena in which Tchaikovsky confronts fate. The motif of destiny runs through all four movements of the work\, carrying the music from anguish to triumph. \nThe Greek Youth Symphony Orchestra and Vassilis Varvaresos — one of the most significant Greek pianists of his generation — are conducted by the inspired maestro Dionysis Grammenos. \nhttps://www.megaron.gr/en/event/gyso-vassilis-varvaressos-dionyssis-grammenos/
