Prokofiev's Cinderella Returns: Teodor Currentzis and musicAeterna at the Conservatory

The Tchaikovsky Conservatory opens its doors to classical music lovers with a performance of Sergei Prokofiev's Cinderella by Teodor Currentzis and the musicAeterna orchestra. This production offers a fresh perspective on the famous fairy tale of kindness, love, and miraculous transformations, combining the emotional richness of the music with virtuoso performance.

Teodor Currentzis and musicAeterna have a long history of working with this work. The ballet was first staged in Novosibirsk in 2006, where it won the Golden Mask for Best Ballet, and the conductor received a special jury prize. Later, in Perm, the production also earned critical acclaim, and the musicAeterna orchestra was recognized as an equal participant in the performance, creating a special atmosphere on stage.

The ballet is distinguished by a vibrant dramatic structure and memorable orchestral colors. Prokofiev's characters—Cinderella, the Prince, the stepmother, and the sisters—are revealed through music and dance, allowing the audience to feel their emotions and experiences. The orchestra, under the direction of Currentzis, conveys the composer's subtle nuances, making every moment of the performance lively and rich.

Particular attention is paid to the complete performance of the ballet. Unlike standard suites, musicAeterna performs Cinderella in its entirety, preserving the sequence and dramatic logic of the work. This allows the audience to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere of a fairy tale, experiencing its emotional depth and poetry.
