Queensland So/Mogrelia - Adolphe Adam: La Filleule des f?es (Complete Ballet)

Adolphe Adam is best known today for the ballets Giselle and Le Corsaire, but his prolific output included 39 operas and several other ballet scores, including the vivacious tale of La Filleule des f�es (�The Fairies� Goddaughter�). The story takes place in an idealised countryside, revolving around the god-daughter Ysaure�s complex amorous affairs and the magical interventions of good and wicked fairies. With its brilliantly colourful orchestration, memorable themes and rhythmic momentum, this work is very much the equal of Giselle.
