Yuri Grigorovich in rehearsal: revival of The Stone Flower in the Mariinsky (July 2016)
We are delighted to share with all friends of the ballet the production of an archived video featuring choreographer Yuri Grigorovich in 2016, working on the revival of his ballet “The Stone Flower“ to Sergei Prokofiev’s music in the Mariinsky Theatre.
Inna Sklyarevskaya, historian of ballet:

first tour with works by Lifar and, most importantly, Lander’s Études and Balanchine’s Le Palais de cristal — plot-less, like the music, and which one year later in Moscow left some in delight, others perplexed and yet more in disarray. Now that we have access to the entire variety
of 20th century world
