HAVANA, Cuba, April 1 (acn) The Cuban National Ballet’s performance of Swan Lake in a packed Coliseum Theater in London, England, was rewarded with an ovation by an audience of 2,500 people.
According to the CubaDebate website, the choreographic version of the classic ballet by Cuban prima ballerina assoluta Alicia Alonso excelled for its high technical and artistic level.
Each of the dancers on the leading roles, Viengsay Valdés as Odette-Odile, Carlos Acosta as prince Sigfrido and Javier Torres as
sorcerer Von Rothbart, were able to seduce the public with their enthusiasm.
Backed by the Symphonic Orchestra of the Theater directed by maestro Giovanni Duarte, the evening reached its climax when Alicia Alonso, escorted by the dancers, went out on stage to wave at the spectators.
The Cuban National Ballet is scheduled to perform at the Coliseum until April 4, and then they will travel to Manchester to debut in the Lowry Theater, as part of a Great Britain tour.
