There are so many for so many different purposes, I can't single ONE out as a favorite. I'd hate to see Offenbach used for a telling of the Ring of the Nibelungen, though, or Alban Berg used for a ballet about Winnie-the-Pooh.
By the way, you don't have to create a new thread when you want to reply to a previous post. There's a button right next to New Thread marked Reply to Post, and that will continue the thread so one doesn't have to jump from thread to thread to follow a conversation.

In its original form, Act IV was very under-filled by Tchaikovsky, perhaps to compensate for an overfull Act I - about an hour in the 1877 score. Drigo had to fill a lot of space and provide time for the story to resolve by interpolating transcriptions of two Tchaikovsky piano pieces.
Since you're writing on the ballet, have you seen:

It's not so old, I only wrote it a couple of years ago.
