I love genia, and I typically find her very lyrical but there are some parts where she seems just a bit behind the music. I'm okay with blaming the orchestra though as they have been known to stray from the dancers before :)

The music sounds like the slave pas de deux from Le Corsaire. Or am I just going crazy?

This pas de deux was created by Petipa for himself & the ballerina Amalia ferraris in 1859 as a concert piece. When Petipa revived "Satanella" for Alexandra Vergina in 1868 the it was added to the 3rd act. In Imperial times it was known as "Le Carnaval de Venise - La fascination", though today - mostly outside of Russia - it is called the "Satanella PDD". The reason it is called "Le Carnaval de Venise" was because Pugni based the music on Paganini's violin piece "Carnevale di Venezia".
