@Celticwomanfanpiano I know right! His dancing is so smooth, light and just flawless...and his lines are gorgeous! I wanna see him dance with Svetlana Zakharova...:)
I own this video and one from the Royal Ballet. I have a feature film screenplay called La Sylphide and am trying to connect to producers, backers, and directors who would be interested in this sort of project. A ballet within a drama.
I meant to say that he can move from one style to another with perfect ease. It's certainly not Bournonville. I'll check out if it's Taglioni, probably is.
Not only that, he's really sweet! I sent him an email on his facebook profile, and replied back the next day! He's as close to perfect as it gets - impeccable technique, elegant, all of it. Love him.
PERFECT! For this style, the best. I danced this version many, many years ago. Bravo POB. Check out my new, "CASABLANCA, THE DANCE," produced by Warner Bros. and my, "Los Angeles Dance Theater."
Ganio is superb in the opening solo. Such crisp, clean batterie and the precision of his steps is a joy to watch. The ballon also, is perfect for this ballet. He makes it all look so easy.
Aurelie is fabulously beautiful! She has clear, crisp technique and a special suspended quality. Lovely. Does anyone know how tall she is? She looks small...
One of the best couple of dancers that i ever seen in a ballet. Aurelie has the cleanest technique of the ballet world with the best style tha a dancer can have, french obviously!

Within this art-form, La Sylphide must be the most difficult to interpret since it is its essence. I would give the world to have seen Elisabeth Platel as La Sylphide.
This is one of the oldest ballets!!revived by the genious of Pierre Lacotte, my guru.The original of the Romantic Ballets,danced for the first time by the greatest Marie Taglioni,I think she would be pleased with Mlle Dupont...
Aurelie is one of those very, very rare dancers who was actually able to penetrate the subtle mystery of this IMPOSSIBLE art form and cause us to believe that she is a sylph, in human form. She represents the pinnacle of the french style.
Carla Fracci was the supreme interpreter of the Romantic Style- completely transcendent. Her Giselle is a spiritual experience. And now we have the wonderful and lovely Aurelie!
After reading your comment, I watched again, carefully, Carla Fracci's Giselle; I thought she was thoroughly "Romantic", very beautiful. I don't think however that her own style stands the test of time; but I guess that's fine since everything changes: -- body-language, physique types, technique, etc; since our spirit evolves.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "stands the test of time". Perhaps you're suggesting it looks a bit dated; which on some level it might be. Surely art evolves, we all of us do the same, but as far as artistry and integrity, here in this case Fracci- well, in my opinion those things stand the test of time.

Why ? Bournonville made his Sylphide in 1836 after Taglioni (1832)
