Rossini - L`Equivoco Stravagante (DVD)
Rossini`s L`EQUIVOCO STRAVAGANTE is beautifully rendered here, with Olga Voznessenskaia, Carlo Moroni, and Luciano Miotto in lead roles. The story follows the fortunes of Ernestina, who does anything she can to prevent her marriage to Buralicchio, who she considers to be a less than adequate intellectual match. But spreading a rumor that she has deserted the army backfires when Buralicchio has Ernestina thrown in jail, although her new suitor, Ermanno, helps her to escape. This humorous opera is played out to an evocative musical backing, with much credit due to conductor Carmine Carrisi.

Giselle: Ballet in 2 Acts (DVD)
First conceived in 1841, the ballet GISELLE was to become the embodiment of the romantic style. Distinguished by an attention to human themes like love, loss, and spirituality, romanticism rejected the focus on strict rules that classic ballet had subscribed to. This staging of Carla Fracci`s legendary work took place in Rome in 1980. The Ballet of the Rome Opera performs M.L. Lavrosvskij`s choreography to the music of composer Adolphe Charles Adam. The accomplished cast is led by Rudolf Nuryev.
