From 4 April by 9 May 2008

This spring, three internationnally renowned dancers, Rudolf Noureev, George Balanchine and William Forsythe, will be staging their shows at the Opéra Bastille…

Great heirs of the Russian school tradition initiated by Marius Petipa, those grand dance masters have influenced and energised classical ballet through their different styles. The Etoiles, the Premiers Danseurs and the Corps de ballet de l’Opéra de Paris will interpret the “Four Temperaments” by George Balanchine, extracts from “Raymonda” by Rudolf Noureev and “Artifact Suite” by William Forsythe, presenting the audience with this artful classical dance rejuvenation. Don’t miss it !
