Presentation
A ballet of ultimate beauty and a score of unparalleled perfection born at the Bolshoi in 1877. In the dual role of white swan Odette and her rival black swan Odile, prima ballerina Svetlana Zakharova exudes both vulnerability and cunning through superb technical mastery, alongside the powerful and emotional Siegfried, Denis Rodkin. Including breathtaking scenes with the Bolshoi’s corps de ballet, this is classical ballet at its finest.Captured live on Jan 25, 2015Bookings in the US and Canada: www.bolshoiballetincinema.comBookings in the UK: www.bolshoiballetcinema.co.ukPlease see map below for our other partners worldwide.
