Pulcinella & Apollo

The Rijeka Ballet has invited for these two ballets the collaboration of two greats. Italian choreographer Giovanni di Palma, who premiered his Pulcinella in 2017 in São Paulo offers a neoclassical take on the story of Pulcinella, his girlfriend Pimpinella and four friends. French choreographer Martin Chaix also lends a neoclassical style to Apollo, which tells the tale of the Greek god of music (pictured), who is visited by three Muses: Terpsichore, muse of dance and song; Polyhymnia, muse of mime and Calliope, muse of poetry.
