Look through the text “The Bolshoi Theatre” and find out the answers to the questions.

The Bolshoi Theatre is the cradle (колыбель) of the Russian national opera and classical ballet. The creation (создание) of the Bolshoi Theatre is closely connected with the flourishing (расцвет) of Russian national culture at the end of the 18th century. In 1776 Prince P. Urusov formed the first permanent troupe of Moscow Russian Theatre. First the troupe performed in the house of Count R. Vorontsov and then, in 1780, in Petrov Theatre, which was the first Moscow permanent theatre. After the fire another building of the theatre was designed by Joseph Bovet in 1825. (Joseph Bovet was a famous Russian architect. He was born in the family of an artist, Italian by origin. J. Bovet studied at the Moscow school of architecture. Then he worked as an assistant to M. Kazakov, a famous Moscow architect. After 1812, J. Bovet became the main architect of Moscow. He participated in the reconstruction of Red Square and in the creation of Theatrical Square with the Bolshoi Theatre as its centerpiece. He was also the architect of the Arch of Triumph which was built to commemorate the victory over Napoleon.)

In 1853 the theatre was destroyed by fire except for the outer walls and the portico, and restored in 1856 by architect A. Cavos. The hall was divided into five circles for 2000 spectators. The interior of the theatre is magnificent. It is famous for gilded decorations and beautiful crystal chandeliers (люстры).

Listen to me and check your suggestions.

The theatre is called “Bolshoi” not only because of its size, but because of its great contribution to the development of the classical opera and ballet. Here the performances of many operas (“Life for the Tsar” by M. Glinka, “Boris Godunov” by M. Musorgsky, “Prince Igor” by A. Borodin, etc.) and ballets (“Swan Lake” and “The Nutcracker” by P. Tchaikovsky, etc.) were staged.

Look through the text and find out the names of singers, dancers, conductors and so on that you didn’t name and know.

World recognition of the Russian vocal school dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. It is connected with the names of such singers of the Bolshoi Theatre as F. Shalyapin, L. Sobinov and A. Nezhdanova. The traditions of the Russian national ballet were followed by such outstanding ballet dancers as E. Geltser, V. Tikhomirov and by a very talented ballet-master, A. Gorsky.

In late years brilliant opera singers (n. Obukhova, I. Kozlovsky, S. Lemeshev, M. Mikhailov, M. Maksakova, I. Arkhipova, V. Atlantov, E. Nesternko, etc.) and ballet dancers (M. SEmyonova, G. Ulanova, A. Ermolayev, M. Plisetskaya, E. Maximova, N. Bessmertnova, V. Vassiliev, M. Liepa, etc.) performed in the Bolshoi Theatre. The names of the conductors, producers and ballet-master are famous all over the world, for example E. Svetlanov, B. Pokrovsky, Yu. Grigorovich.

Put in the missing words in the right form. There are 2 extra words.

Read the text “My first visit” and say what impressions a girl had after the performance.

I’ll never forget my first visit to the Bolshoi Theatre. It was ages ago, but it stands out in my memory quite vividly. My mother bought two tickets beforehand for a matinee performance of the ballet “The Sleeping Beauty” by P. Tchaikovsky.

We came to the theatre long before the performance began. A sign at the entrance of the theatre read “House full”. Many people were standing at the theatre asking if we had an extra ticket.

We left our coats in the cloak-room and bought a programme from the usher to see what the cast was. I remember we were glad to see that Plisetskaya was dancing the main part.

At twelve sharp the lights went down and the performance began. I had never seen anything more wonderful. The scenery and the dancing were excellent. When the last curtain fell the house burst into applause. The dancers got many curtain calls and were presented with flowers. The performance was a great success with the public. The first visit to the Bolshoi Theatre is one of my brightest memories.
