La Sylphide -
La Sylphide, which first appeared in the 1830's, was the world's first Romantic ballet. The story of James, a young Scottish farmer enchanted by a sylph, or tree fairy, on the eve of his wedding, combines reality and fantasy. The great Danish choreographer August Bournonville created a version of La Sylphide for the Royal Danish Ballet in 1836, and it remains his most famous and enduring ballet. The Royal Danish Ballet rightly regards its interpretations of the Bournonville classics as being in the purest and most faithfully maintained tradition. This production, recorded at the Royal Theatre, Copenhagen in 1988, features Lis Jeppesen as La Sylphide. She is of the most famous interpreters of the role, which requires lyrical interpretation as well as superb technique. Sorella Englund is the interpreter of Madge, the witch and fortune-teller, whose rejection by James leads her to seek dreadful revenge on him, with tragic consequences.
