Giselle
Adolphe Adam
The romantic ballet, Giselle, first seen in 1841, was the finest of the ballets staged, in Paris, during the age of Romanticism. Giselle has only survived through the recognition of its quality and the preservation of its traditions by the Kirov Ballet, the direct descendant of the Tsar's St. Petersburg Ballet. This Kirov production offers a choreographic text and dramatic understanding which are a direct result of this illustrious connection, which goes back to 1842. The role of Giselle has been compared to that of Hamlet. She is a simple peasant girl, driven from joy to madness and destroy the man who betrayed her, while still seeking to sustain him because of her undying love.
