    The Art of Vadim Muntagirov DVD Set

    £32.99

    Since joining The Royal Ballet in 2014, Vadim Muntagirov has excelled in many of ballet's most celebrated lead roles, as well as proving his skills as a sensitive partner to some of The Royal Ballet's most revered stars. This special collection brings together four of his most show-stopping performances.

    In The Sleeping Beauty, Muntagirov’s elegant classicism shines as Prince Florimund, and in Kenneth MacMillan's Manon, his heartfelt characterization brings eloquent depth to the impassioned pas de deux between Manon and Des Grieux. Described as 'technically thrilling' (Guardian), Muntagirov's performance as Count Albrecht makes the quintessential Romantic ballet Giselle powerfully resonant today. In delightful contrast, his cheeky performance in Coppélia reveals a wonderful flair for comedy.

    A collection of sheer delight.

    I have enjoyed watching each of the DVDs more than once since receiving them. The Extras add to my understanding of the ballets and to my great admiration for the enormous talent of Vadim Muntagirov and of Marianela Nunez too. They are a real joy to watch. The quality of these DVDs is adding to the great pleasure I had in seeing Vadim Muntagirov in Swan Lake in Plymouth recently. I shall be ordering more very soon.

    Poorly packaged items

    I was very disappointed that a package arrived containing the ROH calendar together with a DVD set in a flimsy envelope which gave almost no protection to the calendar which unsurprisingly arrived bent and slightly damaged. The DVD set will be an Xmas gift and arrived unscathed so I cannot review its content. However I think it very poor that, particularly given that postage was charged separately, that these items arrived together in such a poorly packaged manner.

    Great value

    This is amazing value, four great ballets that I shall watch again and again. The accompanying booklets are also really interesting with beautiful photographs throughout.
