Het Zwanenmeer Ballet & Orchestra

Discover the romantic love of a swan princess and her prince, amidst sumptuous decors and dazzling costumes. This ballet immerses us in the fairytale story of Prince Siegfried and Princess Odette. Odette is the victim of the famous curse of the magician Rothbart: she turns into a swan during the day and back into a woman at night. Only the promise of eternal love can free her from this spell. Siegfried promises Odette that he will marry her at the ball given in her honor. Will they escape the wiles of Rothbart and his daughter Odile? Will the prince be able to save his bride?

Swan Lake was created in 1875 by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and became the greatest classical success of all time in 1895, with the revival by choreographer Marius Petipa. Between “Pas de deux”, romantic duets and “Dance of the Little Swans”, the dancers, accompanied by a renowned orchestra, will perform this masterpiece with elegance. Swan Lake is a symbol of romantic ballet and continues to enchant both children and adults.
