The Search for the Grail: Documentary, A Film Special presented by Placido Domingo (Classic FM Best Buy - July 2004) (Region Code: 2, 5) Tony Palmer’s film centres round a performance of Parsifal, with the unmistakable Placido Domingo in the title role, and conducted by the distinguished Valery Gergiev. However this is much more than just a performance of the opera. Also included is a striking documentary, narrated by Domingo himself, offering description of the plot and exploring theories about Parsifal’s origins and considerable sphere of influence. Gergiev's conducting is riveting in its dramatic intensity, ravishing beauty and transcendent religiosity. Along with Domingo's stunning surety in the title role, Violeta Urmana is the compelling Kundry, Matti Salminen the fierce Klingsor.” (Los Angeles Times) Domingo, Urmana, Putilin, Salminen, The Kirov Orchestra & Choir at the Mariinsky Theatre - Gergiev 100 610 Arthaus 11.99 DVDs TCHAIKOVSKY: The Nutcracker [Region Code: 1-6] with Lezhnina, Baranov & Russanov Larissa Lezhnina, Victor Baranov, Piotr Russanov, Kirov Ballet & Orchestra - Fedotov 070 173-2 Philips 8.99 DVDs MOZART Le Nozze Di Figaro. directed by Peter Sellars (2 DVD SET) [Region Code: 0] Sanford Sylvan, James Maddalena, Lynn Torgove, David Evitts, Herman Hildebrand, Arnold Schonberg Chor, VSO - Smith 071 4129 Decca 7.99 DVDs MOZART Don Giovanni. directed by Peter Sellars (2 DVD SET) [Region Code: 0] Eugene Perry, Dominique Labelle, Carroll Freeman, Ai Lan Zhu, Herbert Perry, Lorraine Hunt, James Patterson, Elmore Jones, Arnold Schonberg Chor, VSO - Smith 071 4119 Decca 7.99 DVDs MOZART: Cosi Fan Tutte. directed by Peter Sellars (2 DVD SET) [Region Code: 0] Susan Larson, Frank Kelley, Sue Ellen Kuzma, Janice Felty, James Maddalena, Sanford Sylvan. 071 4139 Decca 7.99 DVDs WAGNER: Siegfried [3 DVD SET] Still Sealed (All Regions) Filmed at Barcelona's Gran Teatre in 2004 Treleaven, Polaski, Struckmann, Clark, Con Kannen, Symphony Orchestra of the Gran Teatre del Liceu - Billy OA 0912 D Opus Arte 11.99 DVDs The Art of FISCHER-DIESKAU...

BOLSHOI IN VEGAS, a richly entertaining documentary, follows their disastrous 1996 tour in which they hoped to capitalise on this earlier success. The tour is beset with problems from the start, tensions mount, and the Bolshoi are bewildered by their lukewarm reception. KIROV IN PETERSBURG traces the development of an institution. As Communism gives way to Capitalism and artistic values give way to commercial considerations, the Kirov Ballet’s chief choreographer Oleg Vinogradov’s final year in office is set against allegations of bribery and corruption. Through the deeply personal recollections of workers, dancers and critics, specially-filmed backstage footage and previously unseen archive material, a unique portrait emerges of the Kirov’s changing fortunes in the context of its awesome heritage.

The effect of the sumptuous décor and shimmering costumes on the enormous stage of the Bastille Opera is irresistible and the quality of the dancers is of the highest calibre. Elisabeth Platel as Princess Aurora and Manuel Legris, who had already danced under Nureyev, in the role of Prince Desiré, pull out all the stops in a wonderful portrayal of subtle romance in their great ‘pas de deux’. Nureyev’s assistant of many years’ standing, Patricia Ruanne, was responsible for the production. This recording includes all rehearsals from the beginning to the premiere and gives insight into the character of each role and the specific difficulties connected with their interpretation. In addition the dancers talk about the peculiarities of Nureyev’s style and how he influenced their own style of dancing and their approach to later roles.

From their humble origins as Russian refugees residing in turn-of-the-century Paris, to dazzling feats of artistry, this documentary maps the company's illustrious career right up until its demise in the 1950s and '60s (brought about by rising costs, rocketing egos, outside competition, and internal mismanagement). Culled from archive footage and infused with anecdotal interviews from many of the company's glamorous stars, BALLETS RUSSES treats modern audiences to a rare glimpse of the phenomenon that transformed the face of ballet for generations to come.
