The success of the two-part New Year’s Gala has inspired the Polish National Ballet led by Krzysztof Pastor to treat our audience to another selection of varied dance pieces. The third part of the Gala will premiere online on Saturday, 6 February at 7 p.m. CET and will be available for watching for the next 14 days. By demand of ballet lovers, the two original parts will return to vod.teatrwielki.pl on 7 February at 11 a.m. CET and will be available on demand for the next 11 days.

The third part of the Gala features more dane sequences from the repertoire of the Polish National Ballet and rarely shown duets from the classical canon. And so the programme includes the spectacular ballroom scene and poignant 'Farewell to Matilda' from Krzysztof Pastor’s Swan Lake, dramatic duet 'Wie lange noch?' from his ballet Kurt Weill, and a fragment of his Moving Rooms to music by Alfred Schnittke and Henryk Mikołaj Górecki. There will also be two choreographic gems by the great classics of ballet, August Bournonville and Marius Petipa, whose works are a must at any ballet gala. You will see showpiece pas de deux from Bournonville’s The Flower Festival in Genzano and Petipa’s Satanella. Yuka Ebihara, Mai Kageyama, Yurika Kitano, Rosa Pierro, Aneta Zbrzeźniak, Adam Myśliński, Kristóf Szabó, Dawid Trzensimiech, Rinaldo Venuti, Patryk Walczak lead the Gala’s lineup.
