The youth of the Irakli Kemoklidze Day Center visited the Vakhtang Chabukiani Memorial House-Museum as part of an outreach. Integration project. Vakhtang Chabukiani (1910-1992) \u2013 was a Georgian dancer, ballet master and teacher, People’s Artist of the USSR, founder of Georgian professional ballet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chabukiani is considered a reformer of ballet art. He gave men’s dance its own significance. He created a heroic style of men’s dance. By combining ballet classics with Georgian folk dance, Chabukiani created a unique type of national classical ballet. The role of Othello, performed by Vakhtang Chabukiani, was a particular success, combining live dance and pantomime. The premiere of the play took place on March 12, 1958, at the Grand Theater, during the Decade of Georgian Art and Literature. \u201cOthello\u201d was recognized as a triumph of Georgian art. An enthusiastic Maya Plisetskaya noted: \u201cThe Moor embodied by Vakhtang Chabukiani is incomparable. His Othello expresses the greatest simplicity, naivety, and childish naivety combined with wisdom.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vakhtang Chabukiani staged his first concert number, \u201cFire Dance,\u201d at the age of 15, and made his first appearance in heroic dances with the number \u201cFire Dance with Torches\u201d (to the music of A. Rubinstein\u2019s opera \u201cFerramorsi\u201d), which he staged and performed for the graduation party of the Leningrad Choreographic School in 1929. In the same year, he was enrolled as a principal at the Leningrad Opera and Ballet Theater, where he performed thirty parts in both classical and modern ballets over ten seasons. Chabukiani\u2019s performance at the New York Concert Hall \u201cCarnegie Hall\u201d made his name a legend. Chabukiani created the films \u201cMasters of Georgian Ballet\u201d (1955) and \u201cOthello\u201d (1961) based on his own scripts. He was a recipient of many orders and medals, and a laureate of all prestigious awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
