The main task set for the artists by the founder of the ensemble, Igor Moiseev (1906-2007), was the creative processing of folklore samples that were current in the Soviet Union at that time. For this purpose, the artists of the group went on folklore expeditions around the country. As a result, the ensemble's first programs appeared - "Dances of the Peoples of the USSR" (1937-1938), "Dances of the Baltic Peoples" (1939).
In the ensemble's repertoire, folklore samples received a new stage life and were preserved for several generations of viewers around the world. For this purpose, Igor Moiseev used almost all means of stage culture: various types and births of dances, symphonic music, dramaturgy, scenography, acting.
An important stage was the development and creative interpretation of European folklore. Program "Dancing" Slavic peoples"(1945) was created in conditions when Moiseev did not have the opportunity to travel abroad. The choreographer recreated examples of dance creativity, consulting with musicians, folklorists, historians, and musicologists.
With direct participation famous choreographers Miklos Rabai (Hungary), Lubushe Ginkova (Czechoslovakia), Ahn Song Hee (Korea) Igor Moiseev created the program “Peace and Friendship” (1953), which for the first time collected samples of European and Asian dance folklore from 11 countries.
Since 1938, the ensemble has been in Russia and abroad. For a record number of tours, the ensemble was included in Russian Book Guinness records. Since its first foreign tour (Finland, 1945), Igor Moiseev’s ensemble has been the unofficial Russian ambassador of peace.
In 1958, the ensemble was the first to Soviet groups went on tour to the USA, which marked the beginning cultural relations between the USSR and the USA.
In 1967, the first professional folk dance ensemble was awarded the title of academic. In 1987, the ensemble was awarded the Order of Friendship of Peoples.
The hallmarks of the group were the numbers “Partisans”, the naval suite “Yablochko”, the old city square dance, the Moldavian jok, the Ukrainian hopak, the Russian dance “Summer”, and the incendiary tarantella. The ensemble's one-act performances, staged by Igor Moiseev using the means and techniques of world folk and theatrical culture, won great success for the ensemble - "Vesnyanki", "Tsam", "Sanchakou", " Polovtsian dances"to the music of Alexander Borodin, "At the Skating Rink" to the music of Johann Strauss, "Night on Bald Mountain" to the music of Modest Mussorgsky, "Spanish Ballad" to the music of Pablo di Luna, "Evening in a Tavern" to the music of Argentine composers, etc.

On February 10, 1937, the State Academic Folk Dance Ensemble named after Igor Moiseev was created.In 1937, the outstanding Soviet choreographer Igor Aleksandrovich Moiseev (1906–2007). created the Dance Ensemble of the Peoples of the USSR and directed it until the end of his life. Moiseev started in Bolshoi Theater, became one of the brightest character dancers of his time. The repertoire of the Moiseev Ensemble (that’s what this group is called all over the world) includes numbers and entire programs dedicated, it seems, to all countries and nationalities of the world. Moiseevsky artists perform Bashkir, Buryat, Vietnamese, Argentinean, Nanai and Korean dances. Not to mention Spanish, Russian and German. It is remarkable that all these nations and nationalities willingly recognized these dances as their own, despite the fact that they were all composed by Igor Moiseev. The choreographer, who lived for 101 years, saw the world as a single temperamental dance.
IGOR MOSSEEV. Direct speech...
About the ensemble: “We are not collectors of dance and do not pin them like butterflies on a pin. We approach folk dance as a material for creativity, without hiding our authorship.”
On politics: “Thinking about politics has convinced me that ordinary people powerless to change anything. I remember the words of Seneca: “Accept the inevitable with dignity” - and I try to treat politics and politicians as bad weather, seeking and finding satisfaction in work.”
On relationships with authorities: “The only thing I’m grateful for is Soviet power, - that no one has ever interfered with my work. Moreover, oddly enough, my creativity has always been party. In the sense that my searches are in folk dance, in the expression folk character through plasticity they turned out to be in tune with the ideas proclaimed by the party leaders. After all, they didn’t actually say anything bad.”
REHEARSAL. CLASS-CONCERT
Moiseev's ensemble has visited more than sixty countries around the world. The choreographer himself joked that it would be easier to create a guidebook from his life than a biography.
After the performance in New York, a well-dressed woman approached Moiseev beautiful woman and asked permission to kiss his hand. It was Marlene Dietrich.
In the second half of the 90s, Igor Moiseev’s book “I Remember. . . A tour of a lifetime."
“Moiseev came up with a new stage genre: folk stage choreography. It is a folk-stage dance, not a historical dance, not a folk-characteristic one, which was in the ballet. This is a folk stage genre. Again, this is a folk dance,” says the director of the State Academic Folk Dance Ensemble. I.Moiseeva, People's Artist Russia Elena Shcherbakova.
“This means extended feet, somewhere closer to the classical material. Because you can’t put on stage something that is danced, say, at weddings, at festivities, it already carries such a hint of theatricality,” explains the director of the studio school at GAANT named after. I. Moiseeva, People's Artist of Russia Gyuzel Apanaeva.
ARAGONA JOTA
Popular recognition ensured that the ensemble sold out in all cities. Soviet Union. And the love of the country’s leadership helped resolve organizational issues. In 1940, after a short dialogue with Stalin, Moiseev was given room for rehearsals. In 1943 he opened a studio school attached to the ensemble. And immediately after the end of the war, the “Iron Curtain” was opened for the Moiseevites.
“Our first trip abroad was to France. such was the success. In those days, there were still many old Russian emigrants in France. And after the concert they were waiting for us, kissing us, crying. And it was so touching,” recalls Igor Moiseev’s widow, Honored Artist of the RSFSR Irina Moiseeva.
Abroad opened up opportunities for the restless choreographer to expand his already considerable repertoire. Igor Moiseev, like an inquisitive ethnographer, collected everything new and new material for his ensemble and brought dance souvenirs from every trip.
“Usually how we did it? We met with the team. Well, for example, we went to Venezuela and met with the Venezuelan team. We arrived in Argentina and enrolled in a tango school. They showed us the movements, and based on these movements, Moiseev already staged his own production,” says Gyuzel Apanaeva.
The type of transfer of movements “from toe to toe” can now rightfully be called the Moiseev system. He could easily perform all the numbers that Igor Alexandrovich choreographed himself. Moreover, both the male and female parties. This is probably why the artistic director sought perfect performance from his dancers.
“Here sits a man who, thank God, was already many years old, and he gets up, suddenly jumps up and says, “What are you doing, stop! Right here! Once, here! Well, repeat! No, that’s not it again!” He always had this ideal that he wanted others to express what he felt, what stood in front of him. This property is always very great artists“says the choreographer, People's Artist USSR Vladimir Vasiliev.
The same system formed the basis for teaching at the ensemble school. True, it was not Moiseev himself who undertook to train the children, but his dancers.
With us, every teacher teaches what he himself danced, what he has already absorbed into himself, remembers all Moiseev’s comments, remembers all his wishes, the subtext of every movement. In principle, it’s easy for me to convey what I danced, because I know it inside and out, I’ll get up at night, I’ll dance it,” says Apanaeva.
But until the very end, the choreographer personally took the exams. Moreover, he asked equally strictly from teachers and future dancers.
“He made comments not only on technology, but also on acting, because, as he himself said, we have 2 professions: ballet dancers and actors,” says artist Alsou Gaifulina.
Until today, the ensemble's repertoire has remained unchanged. For example, the Russian dance “Summer”, which invariably appears in every concert. And also “Aragonese Jota”, “Polovtsian Dances”, “Hopak” - more than 100 numbers in total.
The last year of the life of Igor Moiseev
“There will never be a second Moses anywhere. Because artists can do anything, but it’s difficult to find a choreographer who will create a canvas, come up with a number that is interesting to the viewer, and first of all, interesting to the artists, so that they can dance and overcome and use their capabilities,” says Apanaeva.
A grandiose event will take place in the cultural life of the capital - a concert of the “Igor Moiseev Dance Ensemble” in Moscow. Admirers of the art of dance will be able to enjoy the magnificent show created by the renowned group. Born back in 1937 legendary ensemble, which still has no analogues throughout the world.

The name of Igor Moiseev has long become not just a name, but a brand outstanding achievements our country. The legendary choreographer created an ensemble performing folk dances, brought to perfection by the hand of a master.
He was born on January 21, 1906. According to family legend, he began to study ballet at the insistence of his father. One day he witnessed a fight in the alley and, when he came home, he told his son that he would not fight, but study ballet. And immediately, literally tomorrow, he will go to ballet school.
Today, no one doubts that folk dancing is an art. This seems like a simple truth. The paradox is that it was Moses who brought this truth to us. After all, before him, no one had to consider folk dance on an equal basis with classical dance.
Why this didn’t happen before - the maestro himself wondered.
“Folk dances are born in every nation according to the laws by which the language of the people is born. So essentially it's genuine phenomenon art. Why no one could understand this before, I don’t know. It so happened that I understood this before others and decided to expose it and reveal folk dance as a certain national system, as a national language,” said Moiseev.
On the occasion of the anniversary of the famous choreographer, Izvestia remembered best dances, delivered by Moiseev.
1. "Sirtaki"
As you know, “Sirtaki” is not a Greek folk dance. But for Moiseev it was one of those numbers in which they taught how to dance in an ensemble. Moiseev’s famous statement: “Whoever calls himself a soloist, I will fire him from the ensemble.” The maestro had a special relationship with the soloists. He taught not to express oneself, but to act as a whole team. In his group there were leaders who danced better than others, but the peculiarity of the ensemble was that any soloist could be replaced and any member of the group could perform a solo part.
2. "Bullseye"
The ensemble is confident that the Moiseev school can serve as an alternative to military service. Here they say: “Send your child to Moiseev’s school, and, God willing, he will work for a year or two. You will get a disciplined, educated, well-mannered man.”
According to Moiseev’s system, a dancer needs to develop not only his legs, but also, for example, acting skills. This is important for folk dance, and it is no coincidence that every work, even the smallest miniature, contains actors’ images. At every rehearsal, Moiseev advised his students to “use their heads.” When taking the group on tour, Moiseev personally took his ensemble to the best museums and art galleries.
3. “Hungarian dance”
Moiseev traveled a lot around the country and the world, he personally searched for and found the right turns, movements, and moods. The ensemble dances are not pure folk dances. They were processed by a master, and Moiseev himself said that the ability to think in the same way as it was created piece of music, requires a special flair. Required condition The famous choreographer considered the creation of folk dance a joy. “Folk dance occurs when the heart is light and cheerful. A person must be an optimist, he is born to be an optimist. And the surrounding circumstances make us pessimistic.” Moiseev admitted that sometimes, in order to radiate joy and optimism, he had to commit “violence against his soul.” Especially when there were no prerequisites for optimism. But this was necessary, because the more pessimism in the world, the more optimism needed to be given to people in art.
4. “Tatarochka”
The dance performers said that “Tatarochka” is one of the most difficult dances, in which they had to perform for a long time, to the point of nausea. huge amount small movements of the legs. The master was stubborn. Dancers could perfect the same movement for months. “Comrades, are you like sleepy flies?” - the stern Moiseev repeated every now and then.
He rarely praised. His highest praise was the phrase: “Well, now it’s like adults.”
5. “Kalmyk dance”
Contrary to the beliefs of the Kalmyk Buddhists, Moiseev knew for sure that the soul is immortal and in every new life it is incarnated into a new living being. He believed that talent is knowledge accumulated by the soul in a previous life. “The spiritual wealth gained through art and culture is the only thing we can take with us. This is what feeds the soul. After death, a person does not lose this, and another time he is born with the acquired spiritual wealth that he acquired earlier,” said the maestro.
6. “Finnish polka”
Moiseev’s colleagues were surprised when the master decided to stage a Finnish dance. They thought that Finnish folk dances were boring and monotonous. But that was not the case. Working on the movements, the master brought them to the point of absurdity. “The absurd is what the public loves. Look how logically and well one absurd movement flows from another!”
7. Dance of the Argentine shepherds "Gaucho"
This dance is considered Moiseev's masterpiece. Looking at these fellows, it’s hard to believe that the performance was not easy for them. As soloist Rudy Khojoyan recalled, the clothes of the Argentine shepherd were terribly uncomfortable, and the spurs on his boots were incredibly heavy. To the common man It would be difficult to walk in such an outfit, let alone dance.
8. “Night on Bald Mountain”
This dance to the music of Mussorgsky is another non-coincidental link in the work of the great Moiseev. The future choreographer was born in Kyiv. His father was a nobleman, lawyer Alexander Moiseev, and his mother was a French milliner. Father and mother met in Paris, in a cafe where seamstresses went to have a snack during their lunch break. Igor Moiseev was brought up for a long time in a French boarding school, he knew perfectly French. The family lived in two countries. At some point, they decided to finally move to France, and even bought a ticket, but the first world war, and the Moiseevs remained in Russia.
9. “Russian dance”
In 1955, the ensemble made a splash in France. The French did not even think that such art could exist in the Soviet Union. This has not happened since Diaghilev’s Russian Seasons. There were queues for the band's concerts, and the band itself performed at the Grand Opera - an unheard of honor that no one has ever received before or since. folk group. “If concerts don’t make you go wild, then you’re crazy,” wrote French newspapers.
Since then, the team began to be released abroad more and more often. Moiseev recalled that they envied him: “Why, comrade, you keep going on business trips abroad!” - the party bosses said dissatisfiedly. However, they had nothing to complain about. From business trips, Moiseev brought checks for a million dollars to the state treasury.
10. Performance of the Moiseev ensemble at Eurovision
In 2009, Moiseev’s ensemble performed enchantingly at Eurovision, held in Moscow. True, the founding father of the group was no longer in the lodge. The legendary choreographer died in 2007. Fate generously gave him 101 years.
Moiseev’s admission that he organized the ensemble “not because of a good life,” but because he was forced out of the Bolshoi was striking. While still a very young man, he became a choreographer. I staged Spartak, but the envy of my colleagues intervened. “They told me: you can dance, but we won’t let you choreograph. For me it was a tragedy. Creativity was more important to me than performance,” recalled Moiseev.
The choreographer left and organized his own ensemble. There was a war, but Moiseev was given money for the ensemble. And then - the will of providence. One day, Moiseev was lucky enough to meet with Stalin himself, and the leader ordered to allocate the best room in Moscow for the ensemble to the young teacher. What is this? Luck? Luck? Moiseev grinned and said: “You know, luck doesn’t exist. There is spiritual work and spiritual experience that is passed on with each subsequent rebirth of the soul.”
