At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the talented choreographer Mikhail Fokine was a person who expressed new trends and new ideas in the Russian ballet. He greatly contributed to the Russian ballet art, expanded the circle of ideas and images, and enriched it with new forms and styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1908, Mikhail Fokine composed a non-narrative ballet sketch. As the choreographer wrote, it was \u201cin the style of that long-forgotten time, when ballet was governed by poetry, when a dancer rose en pointe<\/em> not to demonstrate the steel-like arch of her foot, but in order to create the impression of lightness, barely touching the ground, something ethereal and fantastical\u2026 I have tried not to surprise people with the novelty, but rather to restore the conventional ballet dancing to the point of its greatest advances. I don\u2019t know how our ballet predecessors danced. And no one else knows that. But in my dreams this is precisely how they did dance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire suite, woven by the choreographer of fleeting visions consonant with Chopin\u2019s music, captivate the audience by its pensive beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
