LE LAC DES CYGNES

The International Ballet Festival presents a magical spectacle of beauty, elegance, and grace. A masterful work of art accompanied by a live orchestra. For many, “Swan Lake” is synonymous with ballet. This romantic tale of the young Prince Siegfried, who falls in love with the swan princess Odette and seeks to free her from the curse cast by Duke Redbeard, is a story about the power of true love. This ballet is part of the standard repertoire of all major companies. The Allegro Moderato from the swan dances in the secondact, in particular, has been the subject of countless parodies in Lev Ivanov’s choreography and is therefore known as the “Dance of the Four Little Swans” far beyond the ballet-loving public. In short: a brilliant work by a brilliant composer that has been captivating audiences for centuries.
