Fedotov - conductor Choreography by Mikhail Fokine Artistic director: Oleg Vinogradov Directed by Thomas Grimm This first-ever studio recording of the world-famous Kirov Ballet (Mariinsky Ballet) was made by award-winning director Thomas Grimm at the Danmarks Radio Århus Dance Studio, the most advanced facility of its kind. It showcases highlights from their repertoire, both classic and contemporary, and features a galaxy of star dancers, including Larissa Lezhnina, Altynai Asylmuratova, Sergei Vikharev, Faroukh Ruzimatov, Konstantin Zaklinsky, Yelena Pankova and Yulia Makhalina. The mixed bill includes performances of Petrushka, Chopiniana, Paquita, Le Corsaire - pas de deux, Markitenka - pas de six, The Fairy Doll and Barber's Adagio. In 1907, Mikhail Fokine, then a young dancer and ballet master in St Petersburg and already teaching at the Imperial Ballet School, produced a suite of dances to Chopin music which he called Chopiniana. Among these scenes was a waltz in which Anna Pavlova wore a long, white tarlatan skirt, evocative of the costume worn in 1832 by Marie Taglioni, when she created the role of the Sylphide. From this brief dance came the idea of an extended choreographic study in balletic romanticism and this Fokine created in 1908. Renamed by Diaghilev, the ballet became one of the best-loved of all ballets under its new title Les Sylphides. This production is from Agrippina Vaganova’s 1928 restaging under its original name. From Kirov Classics (1992)
