Synopsis by Nathan Southern

The pas de deux has long served as one of the cornerstones of the ballet repertoire, and this compilation disc brings together a collection of some of the most legendary examples of those duets, culled from all over the world. The pairs featured herein include: Ekaterina Maximova and Marat Daukayev, in a 1982 performance from Anyuta; Karen Kain and Frank Augustyn in a l976 performance from Act Two of Giselle; Jacques d'Amboise and Tanaquil LeClercq from a 1955 performance of Afternoon of a Faun; and much more.
