- The Graduation Ball is a comic ballet that was choreographed by David Lichine to the music of Johann Strauss II. The ballet premiered in 1940 and has since become a popular piece in the classical ballet repertoire.
The story of the Graduation Ball revolves around a girls' finishing school and a military academy. The plot unfolds during a ball held to celebrate the graduation of the senior class from the academy. The ballet is known for its lighthearted and comedic elements, as well as its energetic and playful choreography.
One of the variations in the Graduation Ball is the "Dance of the Drummer" or "Danse du Tambour." In this variation, a male dancer performs a lively and rhythmic dance, often accompanied by a drum or drum-like instrument. The choreography typically includes fast footwork, jumps, and dynamic movements that showcase the dancer's athleticism and agility.
The "Dance of the Drummer" is a highlight of the Graduation Ball, adding to the festive atmosphere of the ballet and delighting audiences with its spirited performance.
