Raymonda (Russian: Раймонда) is a ballet in three acts, four scenes with an apotheosis, choreographed by Marius Petipa, with music by Alexander Glazunov, his opus 57. First presented by the Imperial Ballet at the Imperial Mariinsky Theatre on 19 January 1898 in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Act II - "Cour d'amour"
The courtyard of the castle of the Countess de Doris.
The feast in honour of the arrival of Jean de Brienne is taking place. Paladins, knights, lords from neighbouring castles, eminent ladies, troubadours, minstrels and other guests at the Cour d'amour enter. Raymonda welcomes her guests. She is happy with the decorations of the courtyard, but she cannot hide her uneasiness caused by Jean de Brienne's delay. Accompanied by a rowdy train of followers, Abderahman makes his entrance. Raymonda immediately recognises the Saracen seen in her dream. She is agitated and gives orders for him to be stopped from entering the castle courtyard. The countess Sybille, however, advises her niece to provide hospitality for anyone on that day (Grand Pas d'action). Captivated by Raymonda's beauty,Abderahman reveals his passion for her, but remembering the warnings of the White Lady, Raymonda rejects him with contempt. She prefers the attentions of other knights who do not frighten her. Abderahman becomes even more insistent. He calls his slaves and he has them perform oriental dances for Raymonda (Pas des esclaves Sarrasines, Pas de Moriscos, Danse sarrasine, Panadèros). After the dances, Abderahman orders his cupbearers to enter. They pour a potion into everyone's cup, causing all the guests to become drunk (Danse de échansons). Once he realises that the only way to possess Raymonda is by force, Abderahman orders his shield bearers to abduct her. But at that moment, de Brienne arrives at the castle accompanied by king Andrew II, his followers and army. Jean de Brienne frees Raymonda from the hands of the Saracens and tries to seize Abderahman. The king commands the two rivals to put an end to the matter in a duel, during which the ghost of the White Lady appears on the castle tower. Abderahman is dazed and de Brienne deals his fatal blow (Dénouement). The king joins the hands of Raymonda and Jean de Brienne.

Some of Glazunov's ballet music has all the magical enchantment/excitement one gets from Tchaikovsky - esp. in the piece starting 16:13

@dartmilano gentil signore/a le cinque stelle del Times :-D!
ma dice sul serio o scherza? ma ha mai visto l'impeccabilità di certe operazioni e di certi corpi di ballo?Opera di Parigi ad esempio.
I russi oggi comprano anche il Duomo di Milano se vogliono e in un paese come il nostro pensa non si trovi qualcuno amico dell'amico dell'uomo della fidanzata di un signore che lavora per il Times? Sia serio.
A propos: lei è dart fenner? forse no!

@dartmilano mi dispiace che non si riesca più a trovare la bellezza in quello che si va a vedere o che passa in televisione( in questo caso una fortuna).
Lei trova bella una danzatrice come la Novikova che balla la variazione del 3 atto con un costume che sembra una camiciola e un fagiano in testa? le brave soliste sembravano nane con quei tutù al ginocchio, ecc. il corpo di ballo non era insieme e non è stato curato nello stile, ragazzi giovani ai quali abbiamo tolto una possibilità:ballare!

@dartmilano dispiace a me per lei!( scusi ma per educazione non do del tu a chi non conosco).
Di ricostruzioni nella mia carriera di danzatrice ne ho ballate e sempre ho avvertito che i danzatori in certi allestimenti, costumi e orpelli non sono mai valorizzati.
Queste operazioni fanno perdere di vista l'essenza e il fascino di certi balletti, come in questo caso. Raymonda è un balletto raffinato e non il circo che ho visto, io guardo non solo con gli occhi ma anche con l'anima...
silvia1911 3 months ago
@silvia1911 ne deduco, con tutto rispetto, che tu ne capisca poco di ricostruzioni dall'originale per dire cose di questo genere. Del resto prendere 5 stelle di critica dal Times non succede tutti i giorni e non danno stelle per nulla perchè quando hanno avuto da criticare la Scala lo han fatto eccome. Mi spiace per te

Una performance deludente del corpo di ballo, si salvano gli allievi della scuola... Una Raymonda vecchia e senza stile.
Peccato!
