Sobre el programa...

Brigitte Lefèvre (Director of Dance at the Opéra national de Paris), Martine Kahane (Director of the Centre national du Costume de Scène), Denis Levaillant (music composer) and Patrice Bart (choreographer), speak about the world premiere of La Petite Danseuse de Degas, a ballet in two parts created at the Opéra national de Paris in 2010.

The idea of creating a ballet came to Brigitte Lefèvre, the Ballet's dance director, after reading Martine Kahane's research about Degas' sculpture La Petite Danseuse de quatorze ans. Though numerous exhibitions, books and films had already been dedicated to Degas and dance, until then, no choreographic work had ever really done so.

Choreographer Patrice Bart and composer Denis Levaillant were to translate the intrinsic modernity of a 19th century story into music and the language of the stage. From a mere investigation, the ballet became a quest to recreate the imaginative world of classical dance through the works of Degas.
