The Stuttgart Ballet in John Cranko's Onegin
John Cranko's mastery of the art of the pas de deux finds its climax in Onegin, one of the most successful full length ballets of the 20th century. Set to sweeping music by Tchaikovsky, it tells Alexander Pushkin's tragic love story of the world-weary aristocrat Onegin and the naïve country girl Tatiana in a superbly nuanced way.
