Giselle - Full Length Ballet by International Festival Ballet

Music: A. Adam Choreography: J. Coralli, J. Perrot, M. Petipa Libretto: T. Gautier, J. Coralli, J. de Saint-Georges by Heinrich Heine Set Design and Costumes by Vyacheslav Okunev (Mariinsky Theatre, St. Petersburg) Giselle is a romantic ballet in two acts. It was first performed by the Ballet du Théâtre de l’Académie Royale de Musiqueat the Salle Le Peletier in Paris, France on Monday, 28 June 1841, with Italian ballerina Carlotta Grisi as Giselle. The ballet was an unqualified triumph. Giselle became hugely popular and was staged at once across Europe, Russia, and the United States. The traditional choreography that has been passed down to the present day derives primarily from the revivals staged by Marius Petipa during the late 19th and early 20th centuries for the Imperial Ballet in St. Petersburg. The ballet is about a peasant girl named Giselle, who dies of a broken heart after discovering her lover is betrothed to another. The Wilis, a group of supernatural women who dance men to death, summon Giselle from her grave. They target her lover for death, but Giselle’s great love frees him from their grasp. Librettists Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges and Théophile Gautier took their inspiration for the plot from a prose passage about the Wilis in De l’Allemagne by Heinrich Heine, and from a poem called “Fantômes“ in Les Orientales by Victor Hugo. The prolific opera and ballet composer Adolphe Adam composed the music. Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot created the choreography. Outstanding soloists and dancers, marvelous set design and costumes combined with a magnificent light design and wonderful music, presets by an wondrous symphony orchestra, it is what the International Festival Ballet and Hungary Festival Orchestra offering the ballet lovers in all over the world.
