uma das melhores histórias de ballet,apesar de muito triste. lindo!!!!!!!!!

Agree with other posters. Fracci is PERFECTION; Bruhn is like, "Oh well, that's over, whatever." And yes, camerawork is dizzy-ing, but it's an interesting idea that not only is Giselle heart-broken, she has visions of her impending afterlife as a Wili and she is terrified.

bicho a melhor apresentação de giselle que já vi ela atua super bem.

Exquisite. Rest in peace, great beauty.

Descanse em paz Carla Fracci! Uma das melhores bailarinas já existentes. R.I.P

Meu Deus, eu arrepiei! Juro q eu nunca vi uma Giselle como ela. O olhar...tudo...

Fracci (and Kirkland) was the best Giselle ever. Her second act is amazing as well.

think this video is only to show mimical expressions but not the dance because this is a very dramatic scene in the act where face and body language is very important

the best Giselle ever!!!

Perfection.

Too bad a potentially wonderful performance was ruined by some of the most egregiously dreadful camera work imaginable.

Sorry. But everyone in Ballet world thinks this. From Nureyev to the last dancer: Fracci is the greatest Giselle of all time.

It's the first class act with Fracci and Bruhn who was the most charming and handsomest prince in all time. Shame about the director! His camera shots made me dizzy and it's rather ameturish!

I so long to smack Hilarion in the face at the start of this scene.... poor Giselle :-(

¿Alguien podría decirme que pasó con la versión completa del American Ballet Theatre? Estaba dividida en 10 fragmentos y era maravilloso poder ver esta versión enterita, siendo una de las mejores. La Fracci, assoluta. Bruhn, guau. Pero la verdad, a mi me fascina el que interpreta a Hilarión. Es un hombre de gran belleza mediterránea.

Ah....can anybody tell me where the nect one is please? thank you

si tu lo tienes el dvd de 'giselle'no es ni de espana ni de sudamerica. el dvd que yo tengo es de deutsche grammophon, hamburg..manufactured and marketed by universal classics group,distributd by universal music and video..mi copia es en ntsc el sistema norte americano ..no es posible ver pal o secam si tu no tienes un 'lector'(?) especial..perdona mi espanol..otra version muy buena es giselle con fracci y nureyev teatro del opera de roma 1980..todavia esta es la mejor..

perdoname yo no hablo espanol. la que tu quieres es la siguente yo la buscai en new york soy italiano ahora vivo aqui.. GISELLE FRACCI BRUHN MARKS LANDER AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE ORCHESTER DER DEUTSCHEN OPER BWRLIN CONDUCTOR JOHN LANCHBERY DIRECTED BY HUGO NIEBELING & DAVID BLIAR la critica FRACCI is a GISELLE around which legends are wreathed Bruhn is unequalled (Clive Barnes the New York Times) buena suerte

dude, Albrecht/loys is a player.

De acuerdo-- ese Hilarion es bien guapo!

@citruzzlove for the same reason that in RAYMONDA she prefears insipid JEAN DE BRIENNE to the fiery saracin,is just a tale.and in particular me too find eric bruhn really depressing,never undrestood the reason he was considered a great dancer

@nuaksoy. I have no problem with Fracci's performance. Bruhn, however, was terrible. I keep this video as a prime example of how not to film a ballet.

@citruzzlove but luckyly not all danish dancers are like him,peter schauffus was all an other story

@ballerinette1 . Sorry, but the DVD was simply dreadful. The director of photography should be condemned to the nastiest region of hell for ruining what could have been a fine work of art.

@isafuentemtz MUCH BETTER THAN INSIPID BRUHN IF I WAS GISELLE.....

she's great but i think alina cojocaru could give her a run for her money.
