In 1966, the Company embarked on its first overseas tour to Moscow, Leningrad and Kazan, which led it to being awarded the title of “Tchaikovsky Memorial” from the Soviet Ministry of Culture.
In particular, the company has original works created by three choreographers representing the contemporary ballet scene: Maurice Béjart's The Kabuki (1986), Bugaku (1989) and M (1993), Jiří Kylián’s Perfect Conception (1994) and John Neumeier's Seven Haiku of the Moon (1989) and Seasons – The Colors of Time (2000).
The Company has also staged contemporary choreographers’ works, such as Vladimir Vasiliev’s Don Quixote (2001), Natalia Makarova’s La Bayadère (2009), Mats Ek’s Carmen (2013), John Neumeier’s Romeo and Juliet (2014), William Forsythe's In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated (2015), Anna-Marie Holmes' Le Corsaire (2019).
The company has also performed modern works, including Le Palais de Cristal, Theme and Variations, and Tschaikovsky Piano Concerto No.
The Company performed for the first time in South America in 1998, playing to capacity crowds at the Teatro Colón, as well as at other opera houses in Argentina and Brazil.
