Eglė, The Queen Of The Grass Snakes

  • © LRT – Lithuanian National Radio and Television

The neo-classical ballet Eglė the Queen of Grass Snakes (1960) by Eduardas Balsys (1919‒1984) – one of the most influential and seminal figures in Lithuanian music. Balsys drew on the eponymous poem by Salomėja Nėris (1904‒1945) based on a well-known Lithuanian folk tale with many references to the Baltic mythology. Balsys emphasized the mythological elements of this "beauty and the beast" type of a fairy-tale. Choreographer Martynas Rimeikis created his dance performance based on Balsys’ ballet music in 1919 to mark the centenary of the composer’s birth.
