I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS DVD FOR THE EXPERIENCED VIEWER OF LIVE OR DVD PERFORMANCES OF BALLET. IT IS A COMPENDIUM MOST SUITED TO THE PERSON OF ANY AGE WHO HAS NOT BEEN MUCH EXPOSED TO CLASSIC DANCE NOR COLLECTED FULL PERFORMANCE DVD'S.
YES, THE TITLE IS SOMEWHAT MISLEADING, MORE ACCURATE WOULD A SUB5ITLE SUCH AS "SAMPLES FROM SOME OF THE LEADING BALLET COMPANIES" OR "A PRIMER FOR BEGINNERS IN VIEWING DANCE".

I am in no way an expert on ballet, but enjoy watching performances for the beauty and grace of the dancers as well as the humorous portions of some. This is a collection of excerpts from several ballets and is delightful in and of itself. I bought the DVD because Baryshnikov is the male lead on one track of "Don Quixote". Enjoyable viewing.

No doubt, the dancing is superb. However, most ballets were recorded some time ago; consequently the audio is generally not very good. One selection is awful: The Nutcracker. Both the quality of the film and the audio are bad. One wonders why they included it on the DVD. Nevertheless for a lover of ballet this DVD is worthwhile purchasing.

This was a beautiful gathering of some of the greatest dancers of the last century. It was wonderful.

It is hard to explain why, but I was disappointed with this DVD. For some reason, every time I want to watch a ballet performance, I choose one of my other ballet DVDs (such as Kirov celebrated Nijinsky, or Kirov Classics).
