volcanohunter Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Now I'm officially envious. Over the next year six performances by the Paris Opera Ballet will be beamed to more than 100 cinemas in France and Europe. La Petite Danseuse de Degas (Patrice Bart/Denis Levaillant) - 8 July 2010 La Dame aux camélias (John Neumeier/Frédéric Chopin) - 16 September 2010 Swan Lake (Rudolf Nureyev/P.I. Tchaikovsky) - 2 December 2010 Caligula (Nicolas Le Riche/Antonio Vivaldi) - 8 February 2011 Coppélia (Patrice Bart/Léo Delibes) - 28 March 2011 Les Enfants du Paradis (José Martinez/Marc-Olivier Dupin) - 9 July 2011 Presumably all of them, except Lady of the Camellias, which was performed earlier this seaon, will be beamed live. I do wish they would take pity on those of us living on the other side of the Atlantic! http://www.operadeparis.fr/cns11/live/onp/...dex.php?lang=en Link to comment
DanceActress Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Are there plans to release these performances on DVD after the initial broadcasts? "Swan Lake" and "La Dame" are already available with the POB, but the other ballets are not. Link to comment
cinnamonswirl Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 La Petite danseuse is being taped this month. The expected cast is Clairemarie Osta, Delphine Moussin, Elisabeth Maurin, Mathieu Ganio, José Martinez and Benjamin Pech. The others are being recorded next season. I hope everything is released on DVD. Sometimes things are taped and broadcast (like the Nouvel An a la Bastille in 2008 and the Robbins program) without any apparent intention of releasing a DVD.
