Zoraiya, the Moorish Girl in Spain (AKA Zoraiya) is a grand ballet in 4 acts/7 scenes, with choreography by Marius Petipa and music by Léon Minkus.
The ballet was first presented by the Imperial Ballet on February 1/13 (Julian/Gregorian calendar dates), 1881 at the Imperial Bolshoi Kamenny Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia.
- The Grand pas des toréadors from this ballet were interpolated by the Balletmaster Alexander Gorsky into his 1902 restaging of Petipa's Don Quixote for the Imperial Ballet. This number are still retained in every production of that ballet today.
