    Swan Lake (Russian: Лебединое озеро/Lebedinoye ozero), Op. 20, is a ballet composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in 1875-76. Despite its initial failure, it is now one of the most popular of all ballets.
    The scenario, initially in two acts, was fashioned from Russian folk tales[a] and tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer's curse. The choreographer of the original production was Julius Reisinger (Václav Reisinger). The ballet was premiered by the Bolshoi Ballet on 4 March [O.S. 20 February] 1877 at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow.
    According to two of Tchaikovsky's relatives - his nephew Yuri Lvovich Davydov and his niece Anna Meck-Davydova - the composer had earlier created a little ballet called The Lake of the Swans at their home in 1871. This ballet included the famous Leitmotif known as the Swan's Theme or Song of the Swans. Begichev commissioned the score of Swan Lake from Tchaikovsky in May 1875 for a rather modest fee of 800 rubles, and soon Begichev began to choose artists that would participate in the creation of the ballet. The choreographer assigned to the production was the Czech Julius Reisinger (1827-1892), who had been engaged as balletmaster to the Ballet of the Moscow Imperial Bolshoi Theatre (today known as the Bolshoi Ballet) since 1873. It is not known what sort of collaborative processes were involved between Tchaikovsky and Reisinger. It seems that Tchaikovsky worked with only the most basic outline from Reisinger of the requirements for each dance. Tchaikovsky likely had some form of instruction in composing Swan Lake, as he had to know what sort of dances would be required. But unlike the instructions that Tchaikovsky received for the scores of The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker, no such written instruction is known to have survived. When Reisinger began choreographing after the score was completed, he demanded some changes from Tchaikovsky. Whether by demanding the addition or removal of a dance, Reisinger made it clear that he was to be a very large part in the creation of this piece. Although the two artists were required to collaborate, each seemed to prefer working as independently of the other as possible.

    Um mundo sonoro de uma riqueza sonora transcendental e às vezes tonitroante! É um universo de magia e muito colorido! O compositor parece abraçar o Universo! É simplesmente genial e inconfundível o estilo de Tschaikowisk!

    Tchaikovsky's glorious works ruined by the stupidity of the need to monetize everything we see, hear, and read through inserted ads these days. :(

    I usually like Svetlanov, but here What's his rush? The last 10 minutes....are those Tschaikowski's tempo markings? Probably personal....I just prefer slow majestic tempi, like Bernstein's 'Meistersinger,' and Sibelius symphonies.....

    • @paulybarr

      I know it is often played a little slower during these pages but that is really only a concession to the choreographer. But away from the theatre, these faster tempi make so much sense- this is the climactic moment in the ballet when the lovers have to make a choice, particularly the Prince. We have heard the famous tune in various moods and tempi throughout the ballet, reflecting the changing emotional states. But by now, with the drama at its height, Svetlanov's tumultuous, driving tempi make absolute sense- and at 45.39 the tempo indication is Allegro agitato. Svetlanov's performance here makes you realise how close this piece is as symphonic music to Tchaikovsky's Manfred Symphony- in the tumultuous pages leading up to the entry of the organ. It's the same when you compare the tempi of another great ballet score, Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet. If you have got to know and love this great score from a recording, as many or perhaps most of us do, it can come as a shock to hear it in the theatre for the first time, as the conductor often has to go easy on certain tempi for the sake of the choreography.
