Description:

Inspired by the ever-popular 1831 novel Notre-Dame de Paris (The Hunchback of Notre-Dame) by Victor Hugo, LA ESMERALDA is a three-act ballet that follows the story of Esmeralda, the beautiful Romani woman from the story. With choreography by Jules Perrot and music from Cesare Pugni (1802-1870), the ballet was first performed in March of 1844 by the Ballet of her Majesty’s Theatre. The ballet is commonly performed in its entirety to this day in Russia and Eastern Europe. A brisk, sturdy PAS DE QUATRE is danced by Esmeralda’s friends in this excerpt from the ballet, orchestrated by William McDermott. Instrumentation: 2(2nd opt).1.2.2(2nd opt): 4(3&4 opt).2.0.0: Timp.Perc(2): Hp: Str (4.4.3.3.3 in set).
