In 2014, the Igor Moiseyev State Academic Folk Dance Ensemble celebrates a loud date: the 90th anniversary of the beginning of the creative activity of its creator, the outstanding choreographer of our time Igor Aleksandrovich Moseev. The concerts of the ensemble are timed to coincide with this event on November 28, 29 and 30 on the historical stage of the Bolshoi Theater of Russia , where, according to the established tradition, celebrations of the anniversary dates of the ensemble are held.
In 1924, Igor Moiseev began his career at the Bolshoi Theater as a ballet soloist, and then as a choreographer. His career has no equal: he became a choreographer at 24, staging ballets on his native stage: “Footballer” to music by V. Oransky (together with L. Zhukov and L. Lashchilin, 1930), “Vain precaution” (together with A. Messerer on the stage of the Experimental Theater at the Bolshoi Theater, 1930); “Salambo” to the music of A. Arends (1932); "Three Fat Men" to the music of V. Oransky (1935); “Spartak” to the music of A. Khachaturian (1958), also dances in operas: “Zagmug” (1930); Turandot (1931); The Demon (1932); “Love for three oranges” (1933); The Carmen (1933).
In 1937, the choreographer created the world’s first professional folk dance ensemble. From this moment, the creative team begins its history, which has become one of the main business cards of Russia.
“Folklore is not enough to love and promote, it needs to be developed. If we do not do this, then we will certainly go back in time, "said Igor Moiseyev. That is why he devoted his entire creative life to the development and improvement of folk dance.
Three concerts on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater will present a retrospective of the unique works of the great choreographer. November 28, viewers will see the program "Classics of Igor Moiseyev ": Russian dance "Summer " - the ensemble’s visiting card, the legendary Moses "Partisans", the virtuoso Argentinean "Gaucho ", the famous "Hopak ", "Aragonese Hot "and other works.

November 30 - choreographic films "Tricky Makanu", "Football", "At the rink " to the music of Johann Strauss and Jacques Offenbach, as well as the one-act ballet "Polovtsian Dances " to the music of Alexander Borodin, for the production of which Igor Moiseev and the ensemble were awarded the special medal “Triumph of the Polovtsy” by Igor Moiseyev, Paris, 1971 ”.
The upcoming concerts promise to be an event not only for the audience, but also for the artists themselves. For the first time in 77 years, the Igor Moiseyev State Academic Folk Dance Ensemble will perform on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater for three consecutive days, presenting three different programs to the public.
