Contents

Swan lake: Act II [excerpts] (ca. 15 min.) / choreography, Aleksandr Gorski and Lev Ivanov, to music by Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky ; danced by Yelena Riabinkina (Odette), Vladimir Tikhonov (Prince Siegfried), Aleksandr Begak (Rothbart, the evil magician), Tamara Vetrova, Vera Mitrayeva, and Lesma Chadarayn (three swans), Tatiana Mokrova, Nelly Popova, Tatiana Popko, and Natalia Filippova (four cygnets), and corps de ballet.
