Swan Lake is the first ballet composition by Peter I. Tchaikovsky from 1875-1877, considered by ballet audiences and music lovers worldwide as the greatest and, not without reason, the most popular and most performed classical-romantic fairy-tale ballet of the international ballet repertoire. As the famous ballerina Galina Ulanova stated, "the most beautiful ballet you can imagine."
The worldwide success of Swan Lake is not only based on Tchaikovsky's catchy and captivating music but also on the now world-famous choreography by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov from the St. Petersburg production of 1895. The dance ensemble "Usti," which has received multiple awards, is now known throughout Europe and is considered a training ground for young, talented artists. The ensemble remains true to the classical ballet tradition with its staging and creates a very own version of the classic.
