The premiere of Ode to Joy is coming soon. Today, the choreographers of this work will tell us their creative process sincerely, from which we can know their feeling during the creation process …

“The idea of creating a symphonic ballet with Beethoven’s Symphony No.9 in d Minor, Op.125 to interpret ‘a community with a shared future for mankind’ was put forward by Director Feng Ying. This idea is very grand!”

  Li Yang, the general choreographer, said with emotion when he recalled the beginning of the creation of Ode to Joy, “Thanks to the prosperity of our motherland and the growing strength of NBC, such a forward-looking work could be presented on the stage.”

Wang Qi, the choreographer, said: “It is very challenging to choreograph this symphonic ballet. The completion of the symphonic ballet has high requirements in music for both dancers and choreographers.”

Zheng Yu, the choreographer, said, “Thanks to NBC for giving me this opportunity to learn. I have gained a lot from it, and my ability in the field of choreography has been improved in all directions.”

From November 17 to 19, let’s meet at Beijing Tianqiao Theater to enjoy the symphonic ballet Ode to Joy. At that time, the dazzling light of this work will illuminate our artistic romance and spiritual imagination!
