Léo Delibes - John Neumeier
The longstanding and enormously successful director of the Hamburg Ballet, John Neumeier, created his famous adaptation of Sylvia in 1997 at the invitation of the Paris Ballet. Neumeier’s version, created with the Opéra de Paris ballet, transforms Sylvia into a modern parable about the difficulties of loving. The characters are stripped of their mythological trappings to take on a more human, more universal dimension. This revival of a classical narrative ballet was immensely successful and has in itself already become a classic with performances in various houses including Venice, Hamburg and Düsseldorf.
