TURKISH BALLET WORKS STAGED AT THE STATE OPERA AND BALLET BETWEEN 1960 AND 2025

Abstract

The study aims to identify the ballet works staged at the State Opera and Ballet between 1960 and 2025. The Yeşilköy Ballet Academy began its education in 1950 as a department of the Ankara State Conservatory, following the enactment of the relevant law. This young ensemble, the first generation of classical ballet in Türkiye, went on to form the Ballet Department of the State Theatre. The first Turkish ballet work to be staged was Çeşmebaşı, composed by Ferit Tüzün. The research is descriptive in nature, employing the document analysis method, one of the qualitative research approaches. The works examined are grouped under three categories. The first group consists of ballet works adapted from orchestral, piano, string, and similar compositions, with added narrative content. The second group includes works drawing on Turkish culture, incorporating folk tales, historical figures, and historical events. The third group comprises original works that explore issues relating to the human condition. When the number of works is examined, 24 based on Turkish culture, 22 with original subjects, and 13 adapted from instrumental music were identified. According to their staging dates, 25 works were determined between 1960 and 2000, and 34 works between 2000 and 2025, a notable increase in production and staging in the latter period was observed. According to the findings, folkloric elements are particulary prominent in the first and second groups, while the third group reflects choreographers’ interpretations of the world. The study concludes that in order for ballet to acquire a distinct identity, works grounded in cultural values must be realized through the collaboration of creative artists and administrators. In conclusion this research is significant in that it contributes to the archival studies of the General Directorate of State Opera and Ballet.
