Swan Lake – In discussion with Vladimir Jurowski and Zenaida Yanowsky

“I am going to completely undo the tempo structure of the classical ballet in our performance.” In order to make Swan Lake a success, choreographers Petipa and Ivanov tore the score apart and reassembled it anew. What would the music have sounded like if it were performed as Tchaikovsky originally imagined it? Principal Conductor Vladimir Jurowski and former Principal Dancer from the Royal Ballet Zenaida Yanowsky discuss Swan Lake ahead of tomorrow’s performance on Marquee TV.
