Summary
Firebird, together with other works originated during the Saisons Russes, lifted ballet from an art viewed as at best inconsiderable to one that electrified people across Europe. This Kirov staging of Fokine's Firebird recreates the scenery and costumes created for the original production. Diana Vichneva dances the title role. This live recording comes from the TheÌaÌ‚tre du ChaÌ‚telet, Paris.
