This Tchaikovsky Gala is a must for ballet fans, showcasing Roberto Bolle, resident star of La Scala, and Polina Semionova, Nadja Saidakova and Ronald Savkovic, all Berlin State Ballet principals, in their very first appearances on the Scala stage. Some of the most exacting and demanding moments from Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker are presented, showing to great effect the prowess of the corps de ballet and stars alike. David Coleman conducts musical highlights from the three ballets all set in the Act III décor of Swan Lake: Prince Siegfried's birthday festivities are being held in the castle hall, a veritable tourbillon of dances, from Czardas to Spanish, Neapolitan to Mazurka all of which leads into the celebrated 'Black Swan' pas de deux, starring Roberto Bolle and Polina Semionova. As if by magic, another homage to Tchaikovsky appears:Aurora and her four princes in the immortal 'Rose Adagio', encompassing both dreamy sweetness and technical strength, being one of the most difficult choreographic passages of Sleeping Beauty alongside the 'Blue Bird' pas de deux and the Act II pas de deux from The Nutcracker performed here by Nadja Saidakova and Ronald Savkovic.This perfect gift for any ballet lover is also available in Blu-Ray HD format for the best quality video and audio available. Bonus: " Etoiles et petits pas" by Liliane de Kermadec. Backstage at La Scala with the artists in rehearsals (31 minutes) | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Svetlanov Edition Volume 34
Svetlanov completed over 300 recordings, however the publication of the CDs was always rather chaotic, and there has never been a comprehensive collection of the great maestro’s recordings. Included in this collection is Svetlanov’s famous ‘Anthology of Russian music’ which has never been published in its entirety, as well as recordings by Svetlanov which are hitherto unknown. “I am delighted that Evgeny Svetlanov’s work has at long last been published in such a varied and structured form. I hope that this collection will become a gift for all those who love, understand and respect this wonderful, unique maestro. I would like to wish you an enjoyable and perhaps unexpected encounter with Evgeny Svetlanov, whose work has now become a universal artistic legacy.” Nina Svetlanova | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
