The ballet Wuthering Heights based on the novel of the same name by the English writer and poet Emily Bronte attracts the attention of the audience not only with the plot, but also with the vivid embodiment of choreography and grace of movement.

The music intonations very accurately reflect the emotional and psychological state of the characters. The literary basis of Emily Bronte's novel is so consonant with the musical language of ballet that it forces the viewers to empathize and find their own meanings and sensations from what they see on stage. There is no understatement here, events occur consistently and realistically.
