Absolutely stunning.

I'd never have expected opera music to fit ballet so well - but it's perfect.

Bravo, bravo!

Isn't Tristan and Isolde danced by Svetlana Zakharova and Andrei Merkuriev?

I just saw this in Tokyo today. Beautiful..., this was the first time that I saw Svetlana as feminine; she's always so "princess" ;-)

Anastasia is a gorgeous dancer, but Denis blew her away! Especially in the coda! Just amazing dancing from both of them.

This Pas de deux is from the end of the 2nd act of the ballet. Tristan got seriously wounded in a battle;Isolde returns to him, but Tristan dies. Isolde dies of grief and they are forever united in heaven as the curtain closes.

Tristan is a ballet in two acts by Krysztof Pastor that was created for the Royal Swedish Ballet in Stockholm, 2 years ago. It's based on the legend of Tristan&Isolde, the same as in Wagner's opera. It's a beautiful ballet and a beautiful love story.
