Raymonda,  Alexander Glazunov

Overdådige kostumer, forførende musik og et stort kompagni af balletdansere på scenen

Raymonda er et dramatisk trekantsdrama om den skønne Raymonda og hendes to tilbedere. Hun er forlovet med en ungarsk adelsmand, den galante Otto, men den mauriske prins Abderam forsøger også at vinde hendes gunst. Da Raymonda ikke falder for hans bejlen, må han tage hårdere midler i brug, men hun får heldigvis hjælp fra de højere magter.

Balletten er Marius Petipas sidste store værk – en spektakulær fremvisning af dans i sin reneste og fineste form. Hvor Petipas originale version udspiller sig i middelalderen, har Nikolaj Hübbe i sin udgave valgt at flytte historien frem til 1700-tallets sydeuropæiske rokoko.

I Raymonda præsenterer Marius Petipa os for tre meget forskellige akter, der tilsammen giver et indblik i ikke kun tre slags trinsprog, men også tre nedslag i dansens historie. Raymonda bugner af dans, pas de deux’er, divertissementer, czardas og mazurkaer, og Petipa blander med elegant hånd karakterdans, nationaldans og klassisk dans, ikke mindst sammenfattet i tredje akts berømte Grand Pas Classique Hongrois.

dansk

Sumptuous costumes, seductive music and a large company of onstage ballet dancers

Raymonda tells the story of a dramatic love triangle with the beautiful Raymonda and her two admirers. She is engaged to a Hungarian nobleman, the gallant Otto, but the Moorish prince Abderam also seeks her favour. Since Raymonda fails to fall for his wooing, he resorts to harsher means. Luckily, higher powers come to her rescue.

The ballet is Marius Petipa’s last major work – a spectacular display of dance in its purest and finest form. Whereas Petipa’s original version takes place in the Middle Ages, Nikolaj Hübbe has opted to set his version in the southern Europe of the eighteenth century, during the Rococo period. 

In Raymonda, Marius Petipa presents us with three very different acts, which combined offer insight not only into three different choreographic vernaculars, but also into three periods of the history of dance. Raymonda abounds in dance, pas de deux, divertissements, czardas and mazurkas, and Petipa elegantly mixes character dance, national dance and classical dance, not least in combination in the third act’s famous Grand Pas Classique Hongrois.
