The work's evolution has been a complex one, it's libretto and choreography subject to numerous revisions since it's first appearance in Paris in 1856, and in this English National Ballet production - the first British staging of the work - former-ballerina-turned-choreographer Anna-Marie Holmes adapts the 1974 Petipa-Sergeyev Kirov version to create 'brisk, stylish entertainment' (Guardian) that is visually enhanced by Hollywood designer Bob Ringwood's 'superb' (Daily Telegraph) Orientalist sets and costumes. First-rate dancing by the company and it's soloists - including Alina Cojocaru's 'radiant performance' as Medora (Independent), Yonah Acosta's 'vividly drawn and villainous' Birbanto (Financial Times) and Vadim Muntagirov's 'compelling' (Daily Telegraph) portrayal of Conrad - underscores the 'roaring, madcap success' (Financial Times) of this production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: DVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of discs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: BBC \/ OPUS ARTE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre\/category: CLASSICAL, ORCHESTRAL \u0026amp; SYMPHONIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease date: 4\/28\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable quantity: 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"mediamall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53687650582821,"sku":"VEDDMG-7R2C-GY","price":34.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/8142\/3397\/files\/le-corsaire-dvd_D45Uc.jpg?v=1787850265","url":"https:\/\/mediamall.com\/products\/le-corsaire-dvd","provider":"mediamall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
