Description
Concert program for dance performances of Anna Pavlowa with Ballet Russe and Symphony Orchestra, Theo. Stier, conductor. The program gives performance dates of Friday, January 4 and Saturday, January 5, but an article from the January 10, 1924 Oregonian announcing the arrival that day of Ms. Pavlowa and her ballet Russe for performances in Portland at the public auditorium calls into question the actual year of these concerts at the Heilig Theatre. The Friday evening concert opened with an overture by Glazounoff played by the orchestra. Ms. Pavlowa then performed, with other members of the company, Amarilla, a ballet in one act, music by Glazounoff and Drigo, arranged by Ivan Ciustine. They performed Oriental impressions: three dances of Japan, a Hindu wedding, and Krishna and Rhada. They ended the concert with several dances to music of Glinka, Saint-Saens, Strauss, Grieg and others. The Saturday matinee performance opened with the same orchestral overture. Ms. Pavlowa and company then performed A Polish Wedding, a ballet in one act, arranged by M. Pianowski, music by Krupinski, followed by another one act and two scene ballet, music by Bayer and others, arranged by Ivan Ciustine. They ended the concert once again with dances to music by Liszt, Saint Saens, Gluck, Bizet and others. The Saturday evening concert opened with an orchestral overture by Arensky. Ms. Pavlowa and company then performed Old Russian Folk Lore, a ballet in one act, arranged by Laurent Novikoff, music by Nicholas Tscherepnine, followed by a choreographic poem by Anna Pavlowa to music of Chopin, and dances to the music of Tschaikowski, Strauss, Grieg, Boccherini and other composers.
