Whether Swan Lake, The Nutcracker, or Romeo and Juliet – many of the most beautiful and well-known melodies were written for ballet. The grace and elegance of the dancers inspired the composers to achieve peak creative achievements – time to devote a detailed attention to the resulting music. This evening, it's not just the bows that dance on the strings; some animals are also said to be doing a few pirouettes...

The monastery courtyard of the Reichenau-Mittelzell Minster is a wonderful, historic and acoustically excellent place for the annual "Island Classic" and is popular with locals, day-trippers and travelers alike. It was initiated - together with the municipality of Reichenau - by Douglas Bostock, who has lived on Reichenau for a long time.

The rare full-length ballet highlighted by generous doses of comedy, Coppélia returns to the repertory to mark the 50th anniversary of Balanchine’s 1974 staging. Drawing on the Petipa production, Balanchine collaborated with the great Russian dancer Alexandra Danilova, renowned for her performance in the central role of Swanilda, to bring this 19th-century staple to renewed life.

Considered one of the greatest comic ballets of the last century, Coppélia remains one of the be-loved classical ballet works. Set in an Austrian village, the doll maker, Dr. Coppélius has made a beautiful mechanical doll that he has named Coppélia, where she sits on his balcony reading her book. However, she is so realistic that everyone mistakes her for a young girl, possibly Dr. Coppélius’s daughter. The young Franz even falls in love with her, much to the annoyance of his fiancée, Swanhilda.
