http://3d-building-models.com/bolshoi-theatre-for-free/
The Bolshoi Theatre is a historic theatre in Moscow, Russia, designed by architect Joseph Bové, which holds performances of ballet and opera. The theatre's original name was the Imperial Bolshoi Theatre of Moscow, while the St. Petersburg Bolshoi Theatre (demolished in 1886), was called the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre.
At that time, all Russian theatres were imperial property. Moscow and St. Petersburg each had only two theatres, one intended for opera and ballet (these were known as the Bolshoi Theatres), and one for plays (tragedies and comedies). Because opera and ballet were considered nobler than drama, the opera houses were named "Grand Theatres" ("Bolshoi" is Russian for "large" or "grand") and the drama theatres were ca...

Ballerina to Teacher [1] - Elizaveta Gerdt
As her name might suggest, Elizaveta Gerdt (1891-1975) was the daughter of Pavel Gerdt (1844-1917), famed Premier Danseur Noble of the Imperial Ballet, the Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre and the Mariinsky Theatre for 56 years. Pavel made his debut in 1860 and retired in 1916, creating nearly all the lead male parts throughout the latter half of the C19th. He was the first Prince Désiré in ‘The Sleeping Beauty’ and Prince Coqueluche in ‘The Nutcracker’. As a teacher, his pupils at the Imperial Ballet School included Michel Fokine, Vaslav Nijinsky, Tamara Karsavina, George Balanchine and Anna Pavlova.
Elizaveta Gerdt was a ballerina of some note whose career bridged the Russian imperial and Soviet ballet schools. She studied with Mikhail Fokine, and was the principal partner of Vaslav Nijinsky at ...

Русский балет. Танцуют Вахтанг Чебукиани и Наталья Дудинская в киноконцерте, 1940-й год. редкое видео HD rare video HD. Russian Ballet. Cchebukiany. Kinokontsert 1940. Kirov Ballet. Superb performance.
There are a million trillion uploads of the great Georgian dancer Vakhtang Chabukiani partnering Natalia Dudinskaya in part of 'The Kingdom of the Shades' from 'La Bayadere’ - and my only excuse for another is that this 1940s footage clearest I've ever seen.
As everyone will know, the ballet was choreographed initially by Marius Petipa to music by Ludwig Minkus. It was originally staged in four acts and seven tableaux, with its premier being at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre in St. Petersburg on the 4th February 1877.

The Pas de trois from Act 1 of Petipa's final revival of "Paquita", reconstructed by Alexei Ratmansky and Doug Fullington, performed by Evgenia Dolmatova, Mai Kono and Javier Amo (2015).

"La Bayadère", a classical ballet #ballet #dance #youtubeshorts
La Bayadère is a classical ballet that was first performed in 1877 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia.

The main building of the theatre, rebuilt and renovated several times during its history, is a landmark of Moscow and Russia (its iconic neoclassical facade is depicted on the Russian 100-ruble banknote). On 28 October 2011, the Bolshoi was re-opened after an extensive six-year renovation. An official cost for the renovation is 21 billion rubles ($688 million). However, other Russian authorities claimed much more public money were spent.$1.1 billion according to Der Spiege The renovation included restoring acoustics to the original quality (which had been lost during the Soviet Era), as well as restoring the original Imperial decor of the Bolshoi.

He was the first Prince Désiré in ‘The Sleeping Beauty’ and Prince Coqueluche in ‘The Nutcracker’. As a teacher, his pupils at the Imperial Ballet School included Michel Fokine, Vaslav Nijinsky, Tamara Karsavina, George Balanchine and Anna Pavlova.
Elizaveta Gerdt was a ballerina of some note whose career bridged the Russian imperial and Soviet ballet schools. She studied with Mikhail Fokine, and was the principal partner of Vaslav Nijinsky at the Imperial Ballet School.
In 1928, Elizaveta took up teaching in Moscow, with her pupils numbering Alla Shelest, Sulamith Messerer, Maya Plisetskaya, Ekaterina Maksimova and Raisa Struchkova.
This video contains two pieces of film.
In the first, we see Elizaveta Gerdt taking class - the ballerina is working close up with Ekaterina Maximova in one section of footage, and we see Maya Plisetskaya in the front row of students in another section. It is interesting to try to glean anything specific about the way she conducts her class.
And in the second, we see the ballerina and teacher being honoured at the Bolshoi with a gala - she is initially in a box watching the proceedings on stage, and then moves to the stage herself and is feted by a number of ballet luminaries of the day, including Maya Plisetskaya, Ekaterina Maximova, and Raisa Struchkova.
The female talking head is famed Bolshoi ballerina Raisa Struckkova.

The Bolshoi Theatre is a historic theatre in Moscow, Russia, originally designed by architect Joseph Bové, which holds ballet and opera performances. Before the October Revolution it was a part of the Imperial Theatres of the Russian Empire along with Maly Theatre in Moscow and a few theatres in Saint Petersburg (Hermitage Theatre, Bolshoi (Kamenny) Theatre, later Mariinsky Theatre and others).
The Bolshoi Ballet and Bolshoi Opera are amongst the oldest and most renowned ballet and opera companies in the world. It is by far the world's biggest ballet company, with more than 200 dancers. The theatre is the parent company of The Bolshoi Ballet Academy, a world-famous leading school of ballet.
The main building of the theatre, rebuilt and renovated several times during its history, is a landmark of Moscow and Russia. On 28 October 2011, the Bolshoi re-opened after an extensive six-year renovation. The official cost of the renovation is 21 billion rubles ($688 million). The renovation included restoring acoustics to the original quality (which had been lost during the Soviet Era), as well as restoring the original Imperial decor of the Bolshoi.
The company was founded on 28 March 1776, when Catherine II granted Prince Peter Urusov a licence to organise theatrical performances, balls and other forms of entertainment. Urusov set up the theatre in collaboration with English tightrope walker Michael Maddox. Initially, it held performances in a private home, but it acquired the Petrovka Theatre and on 30 December 1780, it began producing plays and operas, thus establishing what would become the Bolshoi Theatre. Fire destroyed the Petrovka Theatre on 8 October 1805, and the New Arbat Imperial Theatre replaced it on 13 April 1808, however it also succumbed to fire during the French invasion of Moscow in 1812.
The Bolshoi is a repertory theatre, meaning that it draws from a list of productions, any one of which may be performed on a given evening. It normally introduces two to four new ballet or opera productions each season and puts a similar number on hold. The sets and costumes for most productions are made in the Bolshoi's own workshops. The performers are drawn primarily from the Bolshoi's regular ballet and opera companies, with occasional guest performances.
The Bolshoi Theatre is world-famous and attracts large numbers of tourists. As a result, prices can be much higher than in other Russian theatres. This is especially the case for ballet, where prices are comparable to those for performances in the West. For local citizens, concerts and operas are still relatively affordable, with prices ranging from 100 rubles (≈$1.5) (for students, for balcony seats for matinée performances) to 15,000 rubles (≈$230) (for seats in the orchestra or stalls).

'Big Theater') is a historic theatre in Moscow, Russia, originally designed by architect Joseph Bové, which holds ballet and opera performances. Before the October Revolution it was a part of the Imperial Theatres of the Russian Empire along with Maly Theatre (Small Theatre) in Moscow and a few theatres in Saint Petersburg (Hermitage Theatre, Bolshoi (Kamenny) Theatre, later Mariinsky Theatre and others).
The Bolshoi Ballet and Bolshoi Opera are among the oldest and best known ballet and opera companies in the world. It is by far the world's biggest ballet company, with more than 200 dancers. The theatre is the parent company of The Bolshoi Ballet Academy, a leading school of ballet. It has a branch at the Bolshoi Theater School in Joinville, Brazil.
The main building of the theatre, rebuilt and renovated several times during its history, is a landmark of Moscow and Russia (its iconic neoclassical façade is depicted on the Russian 100-ruble banknote). On 28 October 2011, the Bolshoi re-opened after an extensive six-year renovation. The official cost of the renovation is 21 billion rubles ($688 million). However, other Russian authorities and other people connected to it claimed much more public money was spent. The renovation included restoring acoustics to the original quality (which had been lost during the Soviet Era), as well as restoring the original Imperial decor of the Bolshoi.

The Pas de trois from Act 1 of Petipa's final revival of "Paquita", reconstructed by Alexei Ratmansky and Doug Fullington, performed by Evgenia Dolmatova, Mai Kono and Javier Amo (2015).
History
"Paquita" was originally created by the French Ballet Master Joseph Mazilier and French composer Edouard Deldevez. The ballet premiered on the 1st April 1846 at the Salle Le Peletier in Paris with the great Carlotta Grisi as Paquita and Lucien Petipa (Petipa's brother) as Lucien d'Hervilly.
A year later, the ballet was premiered in Russia in a staging by Marius Petipa and Pierre Frederic Malevergne for the Imperial Ballet of Saint Petersburg. Petipa had arrived in Saint Peterbsurg months before and was commissioned by the Director of the Imperial Theatres, Count Alexander Gedeonov to stage "Paquita" for his Imperial Ballet debut. The ballet premiered in Saint Petersburg on the 8th October [O.S. 26th September] 1847 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre, with Yelena Andreyanovna as Paquita and Petipa as Lucien d'Hervilly.
In 1881/82, Petipa staged his own revival of "Paquita" with new musical additions by Ludwig Minkus, who was Ballet Composer of the Imperial Theatres at the time. For this revival, Petipa and Minkus added new numbers, which became the ballet's most famous passages - the Pas de trois of Act 1 and the Grand Pas Classique of Act 3. Petipa's revival of "Paquita" premiered on the 9th January [O.S. 27th December] 1881/82 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre with Ekaterina Vazem as Paquita and Pavel Gerdt as Lucien d'Hervilly.
For almost a century, the Pas de trois has often been mistakenly referred to the "Minkus Pas de trois", but the majority of the music is actually by Deldevez, not Minkus. Minkus actually arranged the Pas de trois from various pieces composed by Deldevez, Cesare Pugni and Adolphe Adam and only composed the coda.
(a) Entrée - the entrée from a Pas de deux in Act 2 of Mazilier's original production of "Paquita" composed by Deldevez
(b) Solo for two dancers - from Pugni's score for "The Naiad and the Fisherman"
(c) Variation I - from Deldevez's original Pas de deux in Act 2
(d) Variation II - from a pas de trois composed by Deldevez for Act 1 of "Paquita"
(e) Variation III - by Adolphe Adam from his score for Mazilier's 1845 ballet "Le Diable de Quatre"
(f) Coda - composed by Minkus for Petipa's revival
"Paquita" was notated in 1904 during rehearsals in which Petipa was coaching Anna Pavlova in the title role. The Pas de trois was notated when performed by Tamara Karsavina, Agrippina Vaganova and one of the Legat brothers, possibly Nikolai Legat. According to Nikolai Legat, the “Paquita Pas de trois” was one of Petipa’s favourites of his many compositions. In his memoirs, Legat writes that Petipa called it his “golden pas de trois”.
Enjoy! :)

La Bayadère is a classical ballet that was first performed in 1877 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia. Created by the renowned choreographer Marius Petipa, with music composed by Ludwig Minkus, it tells a captivating tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set in exotic India.
The ballet unfolds in three acts, taking the audience on a journey through vibrant and mystical landscapes. Act I introduces us to the opulent Kingdom of the Rajah, where the beautiful temple dancer Nikiya, also known as "La Bayadère," captivates all with her graceful movements. She is deeply in love with the valiant warrior Solor, who returns her affection. However, their love is forbidden as Solor is betrothed to Gamzatti, the Rajah's daughter.
In Act II, during the betrothal ceremony between Solor and Gamzatti, the High Brahmin, who also harbors feelings for Nikiya, reveals her love for Solor. Distraught and filled with jealousy, Gamzatti schemes to eliminate her rival. She presents Nikiya with a basket of flowers, unknowingly laced with a venomous snake. As Nikiya begins to dance with the basket, the snake emerges and bites her. Although the wound is fatal, Nikiya's love for Solor gives her the strength to hide her suffering and dance until she collapses.
Act III transports us to the realm of the gods, where Nikiya's spirit finds solace. Solor, devastated by Nikiya's death, is consumed with grief and guilt. In his despair, he is visited by the gods who allow him to see Nikiya one last time in a dream. The dream sequence showcases the iconic "Kingdom of the Shades," where a hauntingly beautiful procession of ghostly ballerinas appears, representing Nikiya's spirit and the unbreakable bond between her and Solor.
In the finale, the gods grant Solor a chance for redemption. The Kingdom of the Shades crumbles, and Solor is awakened in the real world. Overwhelmed with remorse, he rejects his arranged marriage to Gamzatti and seeks refuge in the temple, where he is confronted by the vengeful Gamzatti. As the temple collapses, the lovers find themselves united in death and eternal bliss.
