a good friend who has a fab collection of ballet music CDs has alerted me to the recent release of LA FILLEULE DES FEES (The Fairy's God-Daughter). 1849, originally the leading role of Ysaure was danced by Carlotta Grisi.
the 2-disk CD says:
Adolphe Adam (with Alfred,Comte de Saint-Julien)
marco polo label
Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Andrew Mogrelia

echos of GISELLE and (hints?) of LE CORSAIRE float throughout. and for those of us who love this sort of thing, much of it makes for happy floating.
