Symphonie Fantastique
VAI DVD 4507, $29.95
In 1948 Léonide Massine mounted for the Royal Danish Ballet
a version of his famous 1936 ballet, Symphonie Fantastique, based
on the symphony by Hector Berlioz. A “work film” was
made at that time, shot without sound and showing the dancers in
practice dress. This DVD presents that work film synchronized to
Liszt’s piano transcription of the Berlioz work played by William
Hicks.
Ballet fans will notice the cast includes Erik Bruhn, Toni Lander,
and Stanley Williams, all at the beginning of their careers. 52
min., B&W, English subtitles, 4:3, mono, All regions.
Choreographed by Léonide Massine
Performed by
the Royal Danish Ballet • 1948
Based on Berlioz’s original program notes for the symphony, the ballet traces a “journey of the mind” taken by a young musician, despondent in love, who tries to commit suicide by taking opium. The dose is too weak to cause death, but it puts him into a delirium of dreams and visions.
