On 8 December 2010 the Year of France in Russia (and Russia in France) celebrations will be brought to an end by a big gala concert in which Paris Opera soloists will appear alongside members of the Bolshoi Ballet Company.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and French Prime Minister François Fillon are expected to attend the closing concert at the Bolshoi Theatre.

Although full programming hasn't been announced Dorothée Gilbert will dance the Tchaikovsky Pas de Deux and the First Movement from Symphony in C.
