Swan Lake with Live Orchestra: A Ballet Dream at the Edwin-Scharff-Haus

Elegant lines, floating arabesques, Tchaikovsky's magical sounds: The International Festival Ballet brings the classic Swan Lake with festival orchestra to Neu-Ulm – a stage experience that combines beauty, precision, and great emotions.

Large Form, Clear Dramaturgy

The production follows the classical school: Music by P. I. Tchaikovsky, choreography by Lev Ivanov and Marius Petipa. The evening transitions from the courtly tableau to the poetic swan world – an interplay of majestic corps de ballet discipline and virtuosic solo art, supported by a stringent dramatic arc.

Scenery, Costumes, Light: The Poetry of the Classical

Vyacheslav Okunev's design unfolds fairy-tale visual spaces: a sparkling lake, silky tulle layers, shimmering feathers. The light shapes contours, rendering white and black – Odette and Odile – as fine contrasts. The theater atmosphere in the Grand Hall amplifies every musical turn, every audience reaction.

Sound Body with Profile

The festival orchestra shapes Tchaikovsky's score with buoyant agogic and present coloration. The touching woodwind melodies in the 2nd act, the energetic tutti in the ballroom – the acoustics of the house carry the details to the last rows.

Acting Art in Motion

Between lyrical feeling and brilliant technique: The ensemble balances port de bras of swan-like delicacy with precise corps lines. The famous dance of the little swans shows micrometer-accurate precision; the pointe technique shines without ever overshadowing the narrative.
