79 – Russian ballet

Text in Russian:

Русский балет

Балет в России стал одной из визитных карточек нашей страны. Согласно источникам, первое представление прошло еще в 1670-е, во время царствования царя Алексея Михайловича.

Настоящий расцвет русского балета пришёлся на рубеж 18-19 веков, и к началу 20 в. он занял ведущее место в мировом балетном театре.

Всемирно известные русские балеты – «Лебединое озеро» и «Щелкунчик» П.И. Чайковского, «Ромео и Джульетта» С. Прокофьева и «Спартак» А. Хачатуряна.

Если вы когда-нибудь будете в России, обязательно сходите в Большой театр в Москве или Мариинский театр в Санкт-Петербурге.

World-famous Russian ballets - "Swan Lake" and "The Nutcracker" P. Tchaikovsky, "Romeo and Juliet" by S. Prokofiev and "Spartacus" A. Khachaturyan.
