The Russian National Ballet Theatre
was founded with the help and support of the Ministry of Culture of the
Russian Federation.
The necessity to have a young, promising
and vibrant theatre with a unique potential in both kinds of dance, Classical
and Modern, was the main reason for its foundation.
Talent and devotion to Art is its
major principal. This is supported by the outstanding talent and devotion
of the celebrated masters of the Russian ballet, such as, People's Artist
of the USSR Professor Igor Moiseev, People's Artist of Russia Professor
R. Stuchkova, People's Artist of USSR M. Lavrovsky, People's Artist of
USSR Y. Vladimirov and others.
The Russian National Ballet Theatre
has given ballet a new lease of life. The theatre's repertoire includes
not only classical performances such as Swan Lake, Nutcracker, Sleeping
Beauty, Scotland Suite, Don Quixote and Gala Concert, but also modern ballets
to music of Mozart, Bach, Ravel and others.
The company numbers more than 35
ballet dancers, and is the result of the pain staking search for dedicated
and talented dancers. A great effort has gone into providing the correct
atmosphere and conditions in which to develop and perfect the artists'
mastery and creative research.
The company's main soloists are
:
Honoured Artist of Russia M. Bogdanova,
E. Berezina, O. Pavlova and Prize winners of International ballet competitions
M. Romanov, K. Pavinskaya, N. Ivanova, S. Kkaoukov, J. Usin, and others.
The General Director of the theatre
is the Honoured Artist of Russia and soloist of the Bolshoi Theatre of
Russia, Vladimir Moiseev. The Ballet's Artistic Director is the Honoured
Artist of Russia Evgeny Amosov. The theatre's soloists were invited to
perform principal roles in the leading theatres of Russia, Italy, Spain,
Japan, USA, Mexico, Australia, South Korea and China.
The major creative principal and
direction of the theatre is, not only careful preservation of the Russian
Classical ballet school, but also the development of the never ending search
for new forms of choreographic expressiveness, discovering new models of
direction and possibilities of dance.
