Summary
Céline Gittens dances the dual role of Odette and Odile in Birmingham Royal Ballet’s production of Tchaikovsky’s classic, accompanied by the Royal Ballet Sinfonia.
Why it's fantastic
Tchaikovsky’s haunting score contains some of the most recognisable melodies in orchestral history, including the famous oboe theme that introduces the lake. Seeing Céline Gittens tackle the contrasting roles of the white and black swans offers a perfect entry point for anyone curious about the drama of classical dance.
