One-act ballet “Falling Angels” at the Astana Ballet Theatre
A masterpiece of modern ballet: “Falling Angels” will be shown for the first time in the capital On April 1 and 2, the premiere of the one-act ballet “Falling Angels” will take place on the stage of the Astana Ballet Theatre. One of the most famous works of Czech choreographer Jiří Kylian, included in the program “Black and White Ballets”, which has been shown on the best stages of the world for more than 30 years, will be presented in the capital for the first time. Famous theatres compete for the right to include the performances by Kylian in their repertoire, and every dancer dreams of performing his choreography at least once.
The symbiosis of Jiří Kylian’s choreography and Stephen Reich’s drum composition resulted in a delightful flight of eight ballerinas. The choreographer himself says the following words about his ballet: “Falling Angels is a ballet about our profession.” It is worth noting that his work is distinguished by extraordinary musicality, monochrome aesthetics, and world-class level of performance. Kylian’s ballet is a whirlwind of emotions: it gives shivers from sensuality and amazing plasticity.
