Every night, Johann puts on bat's wings and flies off to enjoy himself. Bella, troubled by her husband's hedonistic activities, consults with her friend Ulrich and plots to disguise herself as a mysterious beauty to seduce her husband. A ballet in two acts after Johann Strauss' "Die Fledermaus" choreographed by Roland Petit, staged by Teatro alla Scala and filmed for television.

Fauns, dryads and shepherds: such is the bucolic world inhabited by Sylvia, the nymph of Diana, goddess of the hunt. Compelled to remain chaste, will she have to renounce her love for Aminta, just as Diana had to sacrifice her passion for Endymion? Originally conceived by Louis Mérante, Sylvia was the first ballet to be performed at the newly-opened Palais Garnier in 1876, but it is the version by Manuel Legris that is making its repertoire debut.
