Sorry I didn't know that only commercially available ones are allowed to be listed, I've edited my post. Sorry again. And just to clarify, I never intended to encourage requests and have actually never traded any of my videos, I'm just an avid ballet video collector and am rather proud of my collection

My collection has more than 200 ballet DVDs. I have an index in word format with the DVD title, dance company, dancers/list of programs for galas and cover image but I don't know how I can post it here. Here are the titles of the commercially available ones from my collection below (a bit hard to read but hope it's a useful reference).

But Ketinoa was also very fond of Obraztsova, I remember the uploads of Obraztsova's Sleeping Beauty in which Ketinoa described her as one of the best Auroras in the world today, so I'd say the channel had a balanced view. (But I myself am a fan of Obraztsova and Kondaurova, not Somova )

It doesn't sound like russianballet is a new incarnation.... Here is a nine part video of Mezentseva (1/9 35th Mezentseva Birthday Semenov Kirov Mariinsky Class Zaklinsky Kulik Pankova Vaziev Vorontsova) from russianballetvideo with the following text: THIS IS A YOUTUBE FIRST. NEVER SEEN BEFORE. Eat your heart out Ketinoa. Even you did not have a 90 minute Kirov company class and focusing primarily on the birthday girl. russianballetvideo is Ketinoa, one and the same. That comment was Ketinoa being sarcastic.

I would like to know the cast too! The only thing I found out was Dorothee Gilbert would be dancing in it according to her official website. But anyway I've already bought tix for 2 performances and I'm flying all the way from Hong Kong to watch it! So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that some of my favourite dancers will be dancing on those 2 nights!

Natalia, do you know if there are Shinshokan or Fairy Shop websites which accept foreign orders for the DVDs? I looked at the Japanese Fairy website and it seems that they only sell to customers located in Japan. Thanks.

I read somewhere that there will be a new DVD on Paris Opera Ballet's Giselle production expected to be out in the market in late 2007 or early 2008. Does anybody know if this is out yet or when it would be out? I couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks!

Many thanks for the info, Naomi!

I note from Paris Opera's website that the Paris Opera Ballet is performing Orphée et Eurydice by Pina Bausch from 4-19 February 2008. Does anyone know which days are danced by Marie-Agnes Gillot?
