The perfect Christmas present for the girl that loves dancing!
These two richly-filled CDs provide a perfect introduction to the joys of ballet music, and is targeted towards young girls and their mothers.
Many of ballet's greatest hits and favourites are included: highlights from Swan Lake, Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, Coppélia, Romeo & Juliet, Giselle, Les Sylphides, Sylvia , Cinderella, La Fille mal gardée, Gayaneh (the soaring theme from the BBC TV drama The Onedin Line) and the charming Tales of Beatrix Potter; the complete 'Dance of the Hours' from the opera La Gioconda (made famous by Disney's Fantasia), the can-can overture from Gaîté Parisienne and the sparkling opening dance from Pineapple Poll (set to the music of Sir Arthur Sullivan), two numbers from Façade, and The Dying Swan, so closely identified with the legendary ballerina Anna Pavlova.
