This three-act ballet featuring Glazunov's glorious score tells the story of Raymonda, the niece of a French countess and betrothed to the knight Jean de Brienne. Separated by Jean's commitment to aid King Andrei II in medieval times, another suitor is so dazzled by Raymonda's beauty that he attempts to abduct her.
Filled with color, grand effects, and a rousing duel, Raymonda features choreography by Yuri Grigorovich and a glorious score by Alexander Glazunov. This production from the Bolshoi Ballet, Moscow stars Ruslan Skvortsov, Pavel Dmitrichenko and Maria Alexandrova as Raymonda.
