Rivers in Pharaohs daughter - whose choregraphy?

[silvy]

I have seen Pharaoh's Daughter on film, as danced by the Bolshoi and starring Zakharova.

I read that the version was reconstructed by Lacotte (after Petipa). I would like to know if the 3 rivers shown (Guadalquivir, Congo and Neva) are Lacotte's own version, or if they are really Petipa's.

Maybe this is explained in the DVD of the above, but I only have the performance itself, and not the additional "bonuses"

Thanks a lot

Oh, thank you, Leigh - and sorry, as it was my fault for not having conducted a proper search :blush:
