La Fille mal gardée: Opéra National de Paris
Paris, Palais Garnier — Main Hall
About the Event
Watch how the oldest ballet of classical repertoire, Jean Dauberval's La Fille mal gardée, unfolds with captivating choreography by Frederick Ashton at the Palais Garnier in Paris.
Created in July 1789, La Fille mal gardée was adapted by several major choreographers, among which are Marius Petipa in 1885 and Frederick Ashton in 1960. Layered with humor and subtlety, Ashton's successful vision is manifested through the superb Ballet de l'Opéra National de Paris, featuring music from Louis‑Joseph‑Ferdinand Hérold arranged by John Lanchbery.
