Amina Khalikova Амина Халикова, Irina Sapozhnikova Ирина Сапожникова and Rustam Iskhakov Рустам Исхаков, “Rachmaninov. A Lifelong Symphony Рахманинов. Симфония Длиною в Жизнь”, libretto, production and costume design by Ivan Skladchikov Иван Складчиков, direction and choreo by Oleg Gabyshev Олег Габышев, music by Sergey Rachmaninoff Сергей Рахманинов, Pyotr Tchaikovsky Пётр Чайковский, Modest Mussorgsky Модест Мусоргский and Karl Czerny Карл Черни, Bashkir State Opera and Ballet Theater Башкирский государственный театр оперы и балета, Ufa, Republic of Bashkortostan (March 30, 2024).

Note I: During the investigation to gather information about the characters’ names in the ballet “Rachmaninov. A Lifelong Symphony”, unfortunately, no conclusive results have been found. It is logical to assume that the main characters are “Natalia Satina” (his wife), “Dana Dahl” (his inspiring muse) and Sergey Rachmaninov himself.
