Adolphe Adam's two-act ballet dances off of the stage and onto the screen with this release of a performance captured live at the Corpo di Ballo del Teatro dell'Opera in Rome in February of 1980. Composer Alberto Ventura leads the Orchestra del Teatro dell'Opera, and Carla Fracci, Rudolph Nureyev, and Ida Menozzi star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
