MUSIC SATURDAY - SWAN LAKE

“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering, 'It will be happier.' " - Alfred Lord Tennyson

With Christmas over, it’s now time to look forward to the New Year. As the cycle of the year draws to a close it’s time to reflect on all that’s been, all that we have learnt and experienced, all that has made us (hopefully) better people. The new year ahead should hopefully prove to be a better one for us personally if we use our retrospective wisdom, and one can always be optimistic and believe that the rest of humanity will strive for a better year in 2016.


For Music Saturday, one of the best known and loved ballets of all time: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s (1840-1893) “Swan Lake”. Here is the production of the Vienna State Opera with soloists: Odette/Odile: Olga Esina; Prince Siegfried: Vladimir Shishov; and Rothbart: Eno Peci.
