Romeo and Juliet
Ромео и Джульетта
William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is a romance staple, making its appearance in the Bolshoi Ballet’s Repertoire. The tale of star-crossed lovers, the passionate and emotional choreography, and Sergei Prokofiev’s famous score, make the ballet a true classic of the 20th century Repertoire.
Alexei Ratmansky’s new version of Romeo and Juliet was performed in the Bolshoi Theatre and recorded for Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema, with Ekaterina Krysanova and Vladislav Lantratov dancing the title roles.

Salzburg: La Traviata
This recording of Verdi’s "La Traviata" from the 2005 Salzburg Festival – the uncontested and hopelessly sold-out highlight of the festival season – captures the triumphal performance not only of Anna Netrebko as Violetta Valéry, but also of Rolando Villazón as her lover Alfredo.
