Crystal Ballet’s Genesis is a work telling the stages of a relationship of two lovers, split into four movements danced by some of the world's great classical ballet dancers Sarah Lamb and Steven McRae, award winning Daria Klimentova and Vadim Muntagirov , the wonderful Erina Takahashi and Esteban Berlanga , and talented star couple Alina Cojocaru and Johan Kobborg, choreographed by two leading choreographers, Kim Brandstrup and Ernst Meisner.

Giselle is the quintessential Romantic ballet. Its title role, one of the most technically demanding and emotionally challenging in the classical repertory, is here danced by Alina Cojocaru, partnered by Johan Kobborg as Count Albrecht. This tale of the transcendental power of love over death is evocatively portrayed through Peter Wright’s sensitive staging and John Macfarlane’s designs, which beautifully contrast the human and supernatural worlds – mastered from a High Definition recording and true surround sound.
