Göteborgs Konserthus Swan Lake – Grand Ukrainian Ballet

Information from Julius Production & Highlight Concerts:

“If I was able to exress my feelings with words, I wouldn’t have to dance at all” – Prima ballerina assoluta Margot Fonteyn.

The Grand Ukrainian Ballet consists of star soloists who joined the ensemble and is today one of the leading ballet companies. The story revolves around the bewitched swan princess who can only be freed from the evil wizard’s spell through true love. Prince Siegfried is expected to marry a suitable girl to carry on his dynasty. He falls in love not with any of the girls who would be a good match, but with a strange girl, Odette, who enchants him with her beauty. Siegfried swears eternal love to Odette. The curse that rests on Odette means that she can only take human form for a few hours each night. The evil sorcerer sees his chance, he lets his own daughter go to a party at the castle in the guise of Odette to trick the prince. The plan succeeds and the blinded prince unknowingly breaks his oath of allegiance. When Siegfried realizes he has been tricked, he begs Odette to forgive him, and she does.

Be enchanted by the myth of Swan Lake and immerse yourself in a world full of beauty, elegance and harmony to the tune of Tchaikovsky’s music.

The performance is performed to recorded music.
