A Stage of Grandeur: 250 Artists, Including Mizuka Ueno, Take the Stage

The performance is Beethoven's "Symphony No. 9," choreographed by Maurice Béjart. This grand production brings together 250 artists, including approximately 80 dancers, an orchestra, solo singers, and a chorus, with three performances scheduled over three days.



Principal dancer Mizuka Ueno belongs to The Tokyo Ballet. She studied at the Princess Grace Classical Dance Academy (now the Académie de Danse Princesse Grace) in Monaco for two years starting in 1993, after winning an award at the Prix de Lausanne. She will revisit Monaco for this performance. We eagerly anticipate the performance she will deliver in this memorable location.

The Grimaldi Forum, the venue for this performance, is the largest international convention center in Southern Europe, built in 2000. It is utilized for business events such as international conferences, trade shows, and exhibitions, as well as hosting a variety of cultural events including concerts, ballet, and exhibitions. It also serves as the home base for the Monte-Carlo Ballet.
