Vakhtang Chabukiani and Natalia Dudinskaya - ’The Kingdom of the Shades’ from ’La Bayadere’ (1940)
There are a million trillion uploads of the great Georgian dancer Vakhtang Chabukiani partnering Natalia Dudinskaya in part of ’The Kingdom of the Shades’ from ’La Bayadere’ - and my only excuse for another is that this 1940s footage clearest I’ve ever seen.
As everyone will know, the ballet was choreographed initially by Marius Petipa to music by Ludwig Minkus. It was originally staged in four acts and seven tableaux, with its premier being at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre in St. Petersburg on the 4th February 1877.
Enjoy!
