The Kiss of the Fairy

Stravinsky’s Ballet

Ballet is movement, choreography, grace, impetus.

The most important ballet schools in the world are Russian, in particular the school of the Marinsky theater of St. Petersburg and Bolshoi of Moscow. The Les Ballets Russes company, founded in 1911 by choreographer Djagilev, gathered the best dancers of the two schools and was characterized by collaborations with the most famous artists of the time.

For the scenography, he used the work of great painters such as P. Picasso, H. Matisse, G.de Chirico, and composers such as C. Debussy, O. Respighi, M. Ravel and I. Stravinsky, author of the ballet ‘The Kiss of the Fairy’ in 1929, in which he also used music by Tchaikovsky.

Superior rooms represent the perfect combination of traditional Valle d’Aosta decor and higher levels of comfort.
