The Moscow Stanislavsky and
Nemirovich-Danchenko State Academic Music Theatre From the 19nd to the
21th November 2010, the Mikhailovsky Theatre Grand Prix — an annual
showcase of students from Russia’s leading ballet schools — will take
place for the second time.
The charity project first took place
in 2009 and its main feature was the fact that money prizes were given not
only to the winners but also to the schools that raised them: the
Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet, the Moscow Ballet Academy, and the
Novosibirsk Ballet School.
In autumn 2010 the young students
of the greatest ballet schools of Russia will appear on the
Mikhailovsky stage to show the results of hard toil — both theirs
and their teachers’. The Artistic Council of the contest will be led by the
ballet master of the Mikhailovsky Theatre, professor Nikita Dolgushin.
The Mikhailovsky Theatre expresses its gratitude
to Mr Toshihiko Takahashi for constant support of the projects
of the Mikhailovsky Theatre and the great contribution to the
Mikhailovsky Grand Prix prize fund.

The Charity Project From the 19nd to the 21th November 2010, the
Mikhailovsky Theatre Grand Prix — an annual showcase of students
from Russia’s leading ballet schools — will take place for the second time.
This charitable project organized by the Mikhailovsky Theatre first
took place in 2009. The main peculiarity of the Grand Prix was that
the cash prizes were awarded not only to the winners, but also to the
schools participating in the contest — the Vaganova Academy
of Russian Ballet, The Bolshoi Ballet Academy, and the Novosibirsk State
Choreographic College.
This autumn, the young pupils of Russia’s
leading ballet schools will take to the stage of the Mikhailovsky
Theatre once more to show the fruits of both their and their tutors’
labours.
The jury will be led by the world renowned
choreographer Roland Petit. In the framework of the Grand Prix two
one-act ballets by Jiri Kylian La Petite mort and Six
Dances will be premiered by the Ballet Company of the Moscow
Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre.
