Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake

Over Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake

The Royal Flemish Philharmonic "deFilharmonie" specializes in the historically informed performance of various classical music styles. deFilharmonie's unique character is shaped by several conductors, such as the Dutch conductor Edo de Waart and the Flemish conductor Philippe Herreweghe. Given his specific background and experience, Herreweghe focuses on the music of the Romantic era and before. The orchestra holds an unusual position in the Flemish music landscape due to its unique nation- and worldwide concert series. One of these was specifically aimed at a younger audience, featuring several well-known compositions performed under the baton of conductor Rudolf Werthen, such as "Swan Lake" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Prince Siegfried must chose his bride: he is not satisfied that he cannot marry a girl of his own choosing. He flees into the woods, where he witnesses a magical spectacle: one of the swans he is chasing turns into a beautiful young woman before his eyes. She turns out to be Princess Odette. She tells Siegfried that she has been kidnapped by the villainous magician von Rothbart. The magician put a spell on her, turning her into a swan by day, and a girl by night. Siegfried falls in love with her, and swears to rescue her. Will he manage?
