Maurice Béjart's collaboration with the Paris Opera lasted more than forty years and brought more than twenty works to the institution's repertoire. In this programme, dedicated to the choreographer who died fifteen years ago, the Paris Opera Ballet presents three works with one and the same choreographic and musical intensity: L'Oiseau de feu (The Firebird), an ode to youth set to a powerful score by Stravinsky, Le Chant du compagnon errant (The Song of the Wandering Companion), an intimate work for two male dancers, set to Mahler's Lieder cycle and finally the mythical Boléro to Ravel's score of the same name.
