The Golden Age - T338657748The Golden Age was Shostakovich's first ballet, commissioned in 1929 when he was only 23. It was premiered in 1930 by the Mariinsky Theatre (known at the time as the Leningrad State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre). The original story of The Golden Age concerns the adventures of a group of Soviet sportsmen and their victory over capitalist opponents during showcase contests. Written in the wake of his first visit to the Weimar Germany, Shostakovich's exuberant and witty score uses many dance forms including polkas, tangos and foxtrots and has all the brilliance of a Buster Keaton movie. For the Shostakovich centenary the Miriinsky is commissioning a new production of this ballet. Presented by The Mariinsky Theatre Trust. Supported by Peter Moores Foundation | |

The Budbug/The Young Lady and the Hooligan/Leningrad Symphony - T01716030282The premiere of Leningrad Symphony took place April 14, 1961 at the Mariinsky (Kirov) Theatre, a good 16 years after the victory that it commemorates. Set to the first movement of Shostakovich's Seventh Symphony, it quickly became established as a classic of Soviet ballet. It commemorates the struggle with the Nazis, celebrates the victory over fascism, and honours those who perished. After its only London performance in recent years The Times described Leningrad Symphony as 'a stunning work...a resonant, stirring ballet, full of heartfelt images and burning choreography'. In contrast The Bedbug is based on Mayakovsky's satirical tale about a petty official who, together with a bedbug, is brought back to life 50 years in the future, into a world he cannot recognise.
