"Giselle" Suite - Face to Face Serie

"Giselle" Suite - Face to Face Serie Rachel Neville

Virtuoso, mysterious, gentle, and melancholy, Giselle is an intoxicating immersion in the romantic era. Restaged by Leonard Ajkun after Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot to the score of Adolphe Adam, the supernatural touch and lightness of the Wilis, and the splendid sophistication of Albrecht, Giselle makes even the music palpitate with her. The Face to Face series affords the audience a close-up to the performers in the intimacy of our studios.

One arm is raised above the head and the other extended to the back parallel to the extended leg. The school director is opposite the dancer and wears a red DTH logo t-shirt and black pants and ballet slippers. She holds the hand of the arm raised above the dancer’s head with one arm and her back arm is extended and she is smiling at the student.
