This collection is a video version of “Spartacus” and “Romeo and Juliet” ballets and “Aida” opera.


Spartacus

"I'm starting with a great creative excitement", wrote A. Khachaturian on the first page of "Spartacus" ballet score.

The premiere night of "Spartacus" occurred in 1956 on the stage of the Mariinsky Theatre and was followed by a number of stagings either in the Soviet Union or abroad. Theatre witnessed three different interpretations of "Spartacus", though none of the stagings met with success and soon were sidelined in the theater’s repertoire. It took over ten years altogether for the ballet to find its worthy choreographic embodiment. The staging referring to 1968 by an outstanding choreographer Yuri Grigorovich became a real triumph and is still reasonably considered the most successful one.
