For the first time on the stage of the Bolshoi theatre of Uzbekistan will perform the magnificent "Astana Ballet"

As part of the "Year of Kazakhstan in Uzbekistan", the artists of the famous Kazakh team will present the best works and famous productions. On August 22, the concert program "Heritage of the great steppe" and the one-act ballet "A Fuego Lento" will be shown on the stage of the Bolshoi theatre of Uzbekistan named after Alisher Navoi. In the following days, on August 24 and 25, there will be a screening of the cult ballet "the Legend of love" by A. Melikov, whose triumphant premiere was recently held in Nur-Sultan.

On August 22, on the stage of the Bolshoi theatre of Uzbekistan, the Kazakh team will show the program in the author's interpretation of Aigul Tati and Mukaram Avakhri - "Heritage of the Great steppe", which repeatedly broke the storm of applause in the largest cities of Europe and America. This divertissement is like a pearl necklace, on which choreographic miniatures of different stylistic orientation are strung, but united by one theme – the stories of the Great steppe.

The choreographic celebration will end with a one-act ballet "A Fuego Lento" from the neoclassical repertoire of the theater staged by guest choreographer Ricardo Amarante.  His ballet is a dance fantasy in the style of Brazilian samba and tango. This production is equally loved by both the audience and ballet dancers, because they concentrate the burning element of passion and virtuoso technique of performance.

In the following days, the theater’s tour poster will be decorated with the famous “Legend of Love”. The ballet in three acts, created by Yuri Grigorovich, was first presented at the Mariinsky, and then shone on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater. Yuri Grigorovich's assistants Ruslan Pronin and Oksana Tsvetnitskaya brought the performance to the stage of "Astana Ballet" with precision to the nuances. In the past, soloists of the Bolshoi Theater, today they recreate the performances of the famous choreographer on the leading stages of Russia, Korea, China, Germany and Belgium.

The plot is based on an ancient eastern legend. Two sisters - Mekhmene Banu and Shirin - passionately fall in love with the court artist Ferkhad. Shirin immediately conquers the heart of a beautiful young man, and mutual love is impossible for Mekhmene Banu: she once sacrificed her beauty to save her sister's life. Lovers who escaped from the palace will face a difficult test, and Ferkhad sacrifices his love for the sake of saving the people.

Powerful scenes with corps de ballet and emotional monologues of the four main characters performed by the Astana Ballet Theater artists add their own bright, incomparable colors to this wide choreographic canvas. And imaginative support and the most complex variations cause doubt in any limits of the human body.

For reference: The Astana Ballet Theater was founded in 2012 at the initiative of the First President Nursultan Nazarbayev. The debut performance took place in July 2013, and over 5 years the team has gained thousands of fans in Kazakhstan and beyond. Based on the wealth of classical heritage and modern ballet art, the Theater develops and displays national dance on a large stage. The metropolitan team performed on the famous stages of Russia, China, USA, Azerbaijan, France, Italy, Belarus, Belgium, Japan and Poland.
