Clavigo. [Roland Petit]. Nicolas le Riche, Clairemarie Osta, Marie-Agnes Gillot, Paris Opera Ballet.
Author: Petit, Roland Published: 2004 Inspired by Goethe's early romantic play, Roland Petit's 1999 ballet recounts the agonies of a weak-willed lover torn between the bidding of his heart and his evil spirit urging him to serve his own interests, leading him to forsake true love in favour of a life of debauchery. The musical score is by Gabriel Yared, and this performance was recorded live on stage at the Paris Opera in October 1999. [Uncoded: for world-wide use on PAL compatible players.] |
