Overview

The National Ballet of China presents Le Corsaire, a story of rescue, love and rebellion on the Aegean coast.

Conrad and his companions survive a storm with the help of Medora and the other women they encounter on shore. When the women are captured by a slave trader, the pirates set out to free them. Rivalry within Conrad's camp places Medora in danger again, leading to a rescue at the governor's palace and a final voyage towards freedom. This production is directed by Feng Ying, with choreography by Yu Bo and additional music and arrangements by He Siyang.

National Ballet of China and its Symphony Orchestra. Conductor: Liu Ju. Music by Adolphe Adam, with additional music by Cesare Pugni, Leo Delibes, Riccardo Drigo and Peter of Oldenburg. Original scenario: Joseph Mazilier; original choreography: Marius Petipa and Pyotr Gusev.

The original ballet was inspired by Lord Byron's poem The Corsair.

History
Premiere of this production: 23 January 1856, Théâtre Impérial de l’Opéra in Paris

Le Corsaire is a ballet typically presented in three acts, with a libretto originally created by Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges loosely based on the poem The Corsair by Lord Byron. Originally choreographed by Joseph Mazilier to the music of Adolphe Adam, it was first presented by the ballet of the Théâtre Impérial de l’Opéra in Paris on 23 January 1856. All modern productions of Le Corsaire are derived from the revivals staged by the Ballet Master Marius Petipa for the Imperial Ballet of St. Petersburg throughout the mid to late 19th century.
