Kempinski Hotels - Vladimir Shklyarov for Kempinski Hotel Moika 22 St. Petersburg

St. Petersburg, the world famous capital of Russian ballet, faces the 2019/2020 theatre season in unprecedented global quarantine conditions – in isolation both artists and spectators from the scene. This ballet video was created as a dedication to St. Petersburg – the city of Marius Petipa, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Michel Fokine, Sergey Diaghilev, George Balanchine, Rudolf Nureyev, Mikhail Baryshnikov.

One of the most recognizable lines of the city skyline 360 degree is viewable from Kempinski Hotel Moika 22 St. Petersburg's terrace and strikes at any time of the day – but is especially beautiful at sunset.

“While the world is on a forced pause, it remains to dream of its awakening and enjoy St.Petersburg’s sleeping beauty,” – says about his native city the hero of the video ballet dancer Vladimir Shklyarov, principal dancer at Mariinsky Theatre (Saint Petersburg - Russia) and guest principal dancer at Bayerische Staatsballett (Munich - Germany).
