Maurice Ravel’s choreographic symphony and most important score as he described it himself, considered as the composer’s “summum bonum of orchestral art” will bring together the Ballets de Monte-Carlo under the direction of his director and choreographer Jean-Christophe Maillot who on this occasion will meet up once again with Ernest Pignon-Ernest and Jérôme Kaplan. Together with his two accomplices, the choreographer will start off by the initial point of this tender love story between these children which nothing will ever separate, beautiful and pure characters of the pastoral novel written by Longus in the 3rd century.
Scenario by Michel Fokine and Maurice Ravel after Longus Ballet in 1 act and three parts for Choir and Orchestra
