A ballet classic

Informace

Don Quijote, a comic ballet by Ludwig Minkus based on Miguel de Cervantes’ novel, is one of the most popular works of world ballet. Choreographed by Marius Petipa, the ballet was first presented in 1869 in Moscow and was hugely successful from the very beginning. The main plot of this story of forbidden love mingles with the portrayal of the bizarre world of Don Quijote, who has set off for knightly adventures with his loyal friend Sancho Panza. A comedy swiftly becomes an opportunity for a beautiful and vibrant work of dance. Sunlit Spain, Ludwig Minkus’ music, and thrilling dances are a perfect showcase for virtuoso ballet technique.
