Dancers of the Mariinsky Ballet Company

With the participation of Akhan Meirbekov (violin) and Maria Shilo (double bass)

Each instrument of the orchestra dictates the pattern of plastic solutions: the double bass is maturity and wisdom, the violin is youth, courage, audacity. The crowd scenes are full of youthful romanticism, the variations are full of energy and strong-willed message, the duets were distinguished by a whimsical interlacing of moods.
