La magie universelle de Giselle au Palais Garnier

La représentation du lundi 6 octobre, dédiée à Patrice Bart décédé quelques heures plus tôt, restera dans les mémoires des spectateurs présents ce soir-là, Sae Eun Park remportant un triomphe dans le rôle-titre.

Giselle ou les Wilis : quand la sororité fait front à Garnier

Jade Larine, 25th June

De ce ballet vieux de bientôt deux siècles, les hommes sont soit absents soit médiocres. Les femmes, elles, passent à la postérité, unies dans l'au-delà. L'acte II offre un grand moment de sororité.

Giselle

Laurine Mortha, 4th June

Giselle, emblème du répertoire romantique du Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris, brille de nouveau à l’Opéra Garnier, magnifiquement interprété par les étoiles Dorothée Gilbert et Mathieu Ganio et un corps de ballet d’une grande sensibilité.

A new Albrecht makes a polished Giselle shine even brighter

Deborah Weiss, 7th March

A last minute injury to Natalia Osipova does not mar the magic of Sir Peter Wright's Giselle as Marianela Núñez steps in to partner Patricio Revé.

The RB: Peter Wright’s Giselle is as near perfection as you can get

Amanda Jennings, 14th February

Sir Peter Wright’s Giselle was given a well-deserved, thunderous ovation on opening night. A near perfect rendition of the ballet from all quarters of the Company was deeply satisfying.

A Valentine’s Day Giselle in Atlanta: Romantic excellence
