The title doesn't sell too well but the ballet is delicious... January 28, 2008
Ashton's brilliant choreography, revived by Christopher Newton and Delibes' expressive music combine to make a charming evening out... November 23, 2005
It was Delibes's music for Sylvia (much admired by Tchaikovsky) that made Frederick Ashton produce it for the Royal Ballet in 1952, and having it back in the programmes - so melodious, so colourful and expressive, with Graham Bond conducting - is one reason to be grateful for having the ballet restored after a gap of 36 years...
