ラ・シルフィード
The greatest glory of dancer brought the performance in the ballet "La Sylphide" on 6 September 1837. At this time Philippe Taglioni and Marie Taglioni worked at the St. Petersburg Imperial troupe, and on the same day, September 6, 1837, Maria Taglioni performed the same role in St. Petersburg. But both great dancers performed this role in different ways: La Sylphide of Taglioni, resigned to the circumstances, took the audience into the world of dreams, while Sankovskaya create an image of fighter protesting against reality. Both ballerinas were beautiful, it was all Russian newspapers.
