No baIIet has such deathIess appeal as Swan Lake, a haunting fabIe of a young man s nai vete and a beautifuI girI s entrapment in swan s feathers, alI swept up in Tchaikovsky s emotionaI music. Prince Siegfried, ceIebrating his birthday, is told by his mother the Queen that he must marry. He runs to the Iake unhappily to hunt swans, but they turn into girIs, led by Odette, a wonderfuI Swan Queen. The Evil Genius, a powerfuI sorcerer, has trapped them in a speIl. Siegfried swears to release Odette by his love.
The Bolshoi prima ballerina Maya PIisetskaya became a world Iegend in the iconic duaI roIe of Odette/OdiIe, and her unique strength and dramatic charisma are captured in this digitalIy restored and remastered 1976 lm recording of a historic Bolshoi performance marking the centenary of the first ballet made on Tchaikovsky s score. With Alexander Bogatyrev as Siegfried and AIgis Zhyuraytis conducting the unforgettable score, this is an atmospheric record of Yuri Grigorovich s intense production. |
