Jete Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hi, After coming across a website with photos of a ballet called Chipollino, I became interested in acquiring the music of this ballet. However I cannot seem to find a cd I can buy online, so I was wondering whether anyone knew of any site where it was possible to buy this cd. (which ships to Europe, since i'm European). (I hope this kind of question is allowed) Thanks a lot Link to comment
Joseph Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hmmm, I've never heard of this ballet "Chipollino..." Mel? RG? Solor? Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Chipollino was a popular Russian children's stage show that was made into a movie in 1977 by filming the action from the stage, sort of like how they made the first Dracula. Link to comment
Mashinka Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Heres the Bolshoi Information page: http://www.bolshoi.ru/ru/season/ballet/rep...26=info&id26=66 Link to comment
Helene Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 If I'm transliterating from the Bolshoi page correctly, the composer is Karin Khachaturian, who wrote Cippolino in 1973. Here's a page I found by Googling him: http://home.wanadoo.nl/ovar/kkhach.htm Edited to add: I couldn't find any recordings by Karen/Karin Khachaturian on either amazon.co.uk or fnac.es. The only recording that isn't by Aram Khachaturian is a Rostropovich recording of a piece for cello. Perhaps this is available in Russia? Does the Bolshoi have a gift shop? Link to comment
