First performed in Paris in 1841, this is one of the greatest works of romantic ballet. Since the Mariinsky Ballet (formerly the Kirov Ballet) performance of Nicholas SERGEYEV's version at the New National Theatre, Tokyo in 1998, this piece has been performed many times over as a popular repertoire piece. The work richly reflects the romanticism of its time: evocation of the supernatural, undying love and of the soul. The core essence of romantic ballet is evident throughout; seen in the dramatic interpretation by the dancer playing the simple peasant girl Giselle, from her betrayal by her lover to her delirious death scene, and the beautiful, subtle and profound scenes in Act 2 requiring masterful pointe work of the corps de ballet which is simply weightless.
