Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | John Cranko

Eine würdige Premiere zur Erinnerung an den großen Cranko. Die bewundernswerte Elisa Badenes prägt den Abend.

Natalia Osipova, a seasoned Tatiana, is joined by Lukas B Brændsrød, making his debut as Onegin in the summer return of John Cranko's take on Pushkin's classic verse novel. 

Le ballet de John Cranko sera la dernière danse de l’étoile Mathieu Ganio avant ses adieux à la scène, bientôt suivis de ceux de Ludmila Pagliero... ce qui rend la production d'autant plus bouleversante.

The welcome revival of a borrowed jewel in The Royal Ballet's treasure chest of story ballets.   

Two very promising debuts in the lead roles and good performances in the supporting roles, made this an enjoyable Onegin.

National Ballet of Canada's connections to John Cranko's Onegin run deep and this revival featured beloved company farewells and exciting next generation debuts. 

A shimmering smorgasbord of some of today’s most exciting international dancers, who performed pristine works by Petipa.

Powerful performances by the four leading dancers brought dramatic weight to this tremendous revival of John Cranko's Onegin by Czech National Ballet.

The Australian Ballet do full justice to Shakespeare's epic tale of star-crossed lovers. Featuring a restaging of John Cranko's famous ballet, the first in almost twenty years, both the ensemble and leads shine in bringing Verona to life. 

The first Fracci Gala at the Teatro alla Scala celebrates the memory and the stature of a child of the house, who not always considered so in life. 

John Cranko's balletic take on Pushkin approaches its 100th performance by The Royal Ballet, opening this run with a magnificent Tatiana from the Russian star. 

The Staatsballett Berlin closes its season in great style at the Deutsche Oper. Majestically performed, John Cranko's Romeo and Juliet is a still delight of movement and décor.

The reality of the human condition, in both beauty and pain

Cet Onéguine dansé restitue avant tout deux univers russes révolus, l'un bucolique et l'autre impérial, composant ainsi un poème chorégraphique d'une infinie poésie.

Dramatic narrative ballets seem to gain in popularity with the Dutch National Ballet, and although Onegin was no tearjerker star ballerina Anna Tsygankova created some beautiful moments.

Lantratov played Onegin with considerable nuance and intensity.

BRB delivers in a production of jolly moods, bawdy humour and great emotions.

The San Francisco Ballet's 2016 season culminates in a dazzling, masterful rendition of John Cranko's Onegin, bringing passion, fury and drama to the War Memorial Opera House stage.

A neatly danced Onegin in Berlin, but one that lacked an emotional core. 

With such a fine couple as Marianela Núñez and Thiago Soares leading the drama, John Cranko's Onegin touches the heart at The Royal Ballet. 

The fourth Étoile Gala in Tokyo showed many faces of Paris Opera Ballet étoiles as well as stars from other companies, and with its intimate atmosphere and hand-made feeling, won the hearts of Japanese audience. 

The rich history of performing Onegin in National Ballet of Canada has persevered. Four strong leads, McGee Maddox, Xiao Nan Yu, Jillian Vanstone and Evan McKie (guest from Stuttgart Ballet) leveraged this production dramatically along with the fine ensemble.

Birmingham Royal Ballet's Three of a Kind is an evening of atypical works including Card Games By John Cranko, George Balanchine's Slaughter on Tenth Avenue and Kenneth MacMillan's Elite Syncopations. At Birmingham Hippodrome. 

John Cranko's Onegin, performed by Paris Opera Ballet, is a sensational partnership given by Isabelle Ciaravola, retiring this month, and Evan McKie, guesting from Stuttgart Ballet.  

Stuttgart Ballet has a long tradition of promoting new choreography, and in this spirit the first programme for its visit to Sadler’s Wells included thirteen brief choreographies, all specially made for the company.

The chill outside was certainly a reminder of Siberian weather, but the anticipation of seeing one of the 20th century’s most popular and beloved dramatic ballets (and set in a milder Russia!) soon had the fingers and toes circulating once more.

John Cranko’s Romeo and Juliet (set to Prokofiev’s score) is the ballet that made me fall in love with ballet.

In John Cranko's Romeo and Juliet, the story moves beyond star-crossed lovers and becomes a study of contrasts and conflicting forces. With set and costume design by Susan Benson, Boston Ballet's production of Romeo and Juliet adds layers of nuance to an old story, giving the audience much to ponder after the final bows.Don't be alarmed – if it's a love story you want, a love story you will get.

War on a chess board; simplicity and purity of line; and a rollicking Victorian nonsense musical—all rolled into one evening in London this week. Autumn Glory was a true mixed bag of styles and tempos, and recalled Birmingham Royal Ballet’s heritage that had its beginnings at Sadlers Wells Theatre.
