 Sylvia [John Neumeier]. Aurelie Dupont, Marie-Agnes Gillot, Manual Legris, Nicolas Le Riche, Jose Martinez, Paris Opera Ballet.
Published: 2006 John Neumeier's version of the famous nineteenth-century ballet retains Delibes' lovely score, but updates plot, choreography, sets, and costumes to modern times, creating a parable about the difficulties of loving. The characters are stripped of their mythological trappings to take on a more human, universal, dimension. [Uncoded, for world-wide use on NTSC compatible equipment.] |
