THE DUET PLAYERS
The Sleeping Beauty is one of the most famous of the ballets Tchaikovsky wrote for performance at the Petersburg Opera House. It has been performed in London several times by the Russian Ballet. The version of the tale to which Tchaikovsky set his music is in essentials the same as the one we know, but differs in detail. For example, Aurora, the name by which the beautiful princess is here known, is put under a spell of perpetual slumber from the day of her christening.
