Swan Lake with the Washington Ballet
11 April 2015 @ 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM
Mélanie is thrilled to join the stellar players of the Evermay Chamber orchestra for the SOLD OUT Washington Ballet’s production of Swan Lake. The music by Tchaikovski is gorgeous and features the harp beautifully
Mesmerizing audiences for over 100 years, Swan Lake is considered by many to be the greatest classical ballet of all time. Now The Washington Ballet will take on this mysterious, lyrical and dramatic ballet. The classical enchantment of Swan Lake involves the beautiful Princess Odette, a passionate prince, and the wicked sorcerer von Rothbart who captures Odette and turns her into a swan by day. The evil spell can only be broken when a young man pledges his love and marries her. Should he betray her, she will remain a swan forever. This program includes accompaniment by The Evermay Chamber Orchestra, an ensemble group presented by S&R Foundation under the patronage of Dr. Ryuji Ueno.
Music: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky performed by Evermay Chamber Orchestra
Choreography: Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov
