Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

In the strange and turbulent times that we live, and even more so at Christmas, it is always nice to keep the classics, full of sweetness and enchanting dreams. Enjoying a classic ballet night is always a good time that allows you to disconnect from reality and immerse yourself in an ideal fantasy world. But also, if it's one of Tchaikovsky's most wonderful titles, pleasure multiplies by a thousand.

The nutcracker is a Christmas classic, but despite having seen it a thousand times, in this work we always find details and ideas to think. This is the third ballet composed by Tchaikovsky, behind the lake of the Cisnes and the beautiful Loti, and the choreography was created by Marius Petipa and Δ Ivanov. It premiered in 1892, but it's curious that its fame began in 1960. About fifty years after its premiere, Walt Disney used a musical part of the Cascanueces in the 1940 Fantasy film. People liked the film and started to get interested in ballet. Interest increased when the installation of George Balanchine's Nutcracker was broadcast on television in the late 1950s. Ballet has since been represented in many places, and perhaps has become the best known of all ballets in Western countries, especially at Christmas.

On this occasion we were able to enjoy the assembly offered by the Ballet Royal Russian. Group founded in 2008 by Anatoliy Kazatskiy that gathers the entire school tradition of classical ballet in Russia. On the other hand, it is a group that intends to introduce new choreographic trends and also promotes new dance talents in its country.

We were able to see and enjoy the best tradition of Russian ballet. Karina Telvar (in the role of Clara) and the leading dancers of Arsen Marusenko (in the one of El Príncipe) made delicious pas à deux, full of coordination and sensitivity. He also highlighted the elegance of the dance of Mykola Steshenko, in the role of Cascanueces, and the virtuosity of Anatoliy Kazatskiy, in the role of Drosselmeier, surprised us.

Perhaps the most distorted were group sessions, without coordination or in-depth work. On the other hand, the decor and the clothing did not match the quality of the work and the soloists. But that, as you know, is a matter of money. They certainly offered us a play and an assembly to enjoy.

Atmosphere of cabaret in the Arriaga

The Arriaga Theatre sometimes offers us shows that have no place in large theatres due to their uniqueness, demand for a more intimate space or for other thousand reasons. That doesn't mean they're not that interesting. The opposite is often the case.
