In your lifetime, you should at least go to Moscow, Russia to see a classic ballet performance!

The Russian love for ballet is like the Brazilian love for soccer! Ballet originated in Italy, flourished in France, and reached its peak in Russia. Like Peking Opera in China, ballet is a national treasure of Russia. No matter what your attitude towards it was before, anyone who has seen Russian ballet once will be conquered by its charm and fall in love with this elegant art. The difficulty of ballet lies in the fact that it is an art of time and space. It is both like the art of time: music, which is constrained by time, and like the art of space: sculpture, which occupies a certain space. At the same time, it is a visual art with strong appreciation. Ballet is not a general law of human movement. It is an art that, through long-term scientific training, brings the essential potential of the human body to the extreme, creating a full combination of rationality and sensibility, thought and emotion, heart and mind. It can be said to be the highest form of human emotion. When it comes to ballet, we have to mention the many theaters in Moscow, such as the Bolshoi Theatre, the Kremlin Theatre, the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Theatre, and the Maly Theatre. Among them, the Bolshoi Theatre is the largest and oldest theater in Moscow, and a famous ballet and opera theater in Moscow. There is a very luxurious box directly opposite the stage, which was used by the tsar in the past. In the past, ballet was only a program that nobles and a few rich people could enjoy, but now it has become a popular art form. Watching a performance here is not only a pleasure for the audience, but also an affirmation of the art of ballet dancers who can perform at the Bolshoi Theatre. In other words, the dancers who can perform here are the highest level ballet dancers in Russia. You must come here to see a classic ballet performance in your lifetime!
