  1. Oh well I'll just have to depend on the enlightened members of Ballettalk to fill me in on the interesting news. Meanwhile I'll consider getting it just for the pictures, as I'm a big Thomas Lund fan. Last year I had the fortune to meet Tomas Lund on the stage, immediately after his performance in La Sylphide in Rome. He was with Gudrun Bojesen and both of them were very kind and amusing. Nice costumes too.
  2. Actually both Fracci and Nureyev were not at the top of their possibilities. She is 44 and he 42, but i love this Giselle beyond the technical skill of the dancers. The 'pathos' in this Giselle is extraordinary to me. The final part of Act II is available on YouTube. (Search on "giselle fracci nureyev")
  3. If you like Nureyev and Fracci there is also this DVD, which has been registered 'live' in 1980 at Teatro dell'Opera di Roma. http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album....album_id=104354 I love it very much. If you decide to buy the Ferri Giselle you'll see a young Roberto Bolle aged 20 in the Pas de paysans. Fracci and Ferri are surely my favourite Giselle.
