Description
Kicking off the programme will be the Grand Pas Classique from Marius Petipa’s elegant classical ballet Paquita. Petipa is often cited as ‘the father of classical ballet’. His renowned Paquita sets the stage for a great mixed bill.
Next comes the world première of Bolero, set to Maurice Ravel’s famous orchestral piece of the same name. Created by Yuh Egami and Ricky Hu, two of The Hong Kong Ballet’s most talented dancers and choreographers, this will be a memorable début for the Company.
Last, but by no means least, another highlight of the programme will be The Hong Kong Ballet’s première of Alexei Ratmansky’s charming and fun one-act ballet, Le Carnaval des Animaux (The Carnival of the Animals). Ratmansky is an internationally acclaimed choreographer who is currently the Artist in Residence at American Ballet Theatre, New York.
This challenging ballet will showcase the Company’s seamless blend of vitality, technical precision and regal grace. Not to be missed!
