WAKE FOREST, N.C. (May 9, 2008)—TheClassicalStation.org announces today that its weekly program “Preview!” will feature an interview with Robert Weiss, artistic director of the Carolina Ballet. The interview can be heard during the station’s Sunday, May 11 program that runs from 6-9 p.m. ET.
Weiss will discuss the Ballet’s new production of “Sleeping Beauty” with WCPE’s David Ballantyne. Performances will run May 15 through 18 at the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh, N.C.
“Carolina Ballet's latest thrilling production is based on the original choreography by ‘the father of Russian ballet,’ Marius Pepita,” says Ballantyne. “Set to the timeless brilliance of Tchaikovsky, ‘Sleeping Beauty’ is widely regarded as his greatest ballet score.”
