3 DVD's, TDK
A veritable feast of ballet here with 3 DVD's in a slipcase.
The idea has been to assemble three well-known and well-loved
ballets from impeccable companies and with famous choreographers
in charge. There are five hours and forty-one minutes on offer
here.
With the Bolshoi, Ballet Lausanne, and La Scala doing the
work we can be fairly satisfied with the standards although
people who are ballet maniacs might quibble a little about
the precise performances and whether or not some other
companies should have a look in. But even those people
will probably want this just to have it. For others,
especially those just discovering a love of ballet, or
maybe even just exploring, this is a very nice way to start,
and of course, being on DVD, we have the full visual
thing ... which is the point of ballet, otherwise it
would just be ... music!
