The Romance of the Rosebud and the Butterfly is believed to be the last work of Marius Petipa. It was choreographed to a specially commissioned score by Riccardo Drigo and was scheduled to premiere in 1904 at the Hermitage Theater, St. Petersburg, but was inexplicably canceled before the first performance. “All my work is wasted,” wrote Petipa in his diary.
Vasily Medvedev and Stanislav Fečo recreated this lost masterpiece using the surviving original notation score, musical score, and costume sketches.
