Tatar opera theatre director, Raufal Mukhametzyanov, said at a news conference dedicated to the new season that Golden Horde had been worked on for three years.
“When the idea was first formulated, we wrote to President of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov, and asked for funds, to implement it. President supported and us and the wheels began spinning,” he said. Libretto author, Renat Kharis, said the Tatar opera theatre had wished to stage a ballet based on history.
“I brought several projects to the theatre but we finally chose the Golden Horde, since the period is immediately related to our culture and history,” he shared.
According to R. Mukhametzyanov, many people relate the Golden Horde with invasions and wars, whereas in fact there was ordinary human life as well. “There are moral things like love. How could a ballet without love and romance be created?
Love is at the basis of any ballet, it is important,” theatre’s director stressed. The production shows the final years of the Golden Horde and its fall. “It is not a political or historical piece. It is an artistic view of a big story,” the authors enhanced.
