Giselle...

Description

Giselle dances in honor of Albrecht. Hilarion, the gamekeeper who is in love with her, reveals Albrecht's identity: he is the Duke of Silesia and already engaged. Giselle then loses her mind and collapses lifeless to the ground. When Hilarion and Albrecht pause at Giselle's grave, they are condemned to dance until death. This performance is part of the trilogy: "Phèdre!", "Giselle...", Carmen.
