The Pharaoh's Daughter
The grand pas appears in a variety of formats and may employ varying numbers of dancers. For example, a "grand pas de deux" is performed by only two dancers; this typically serves as the pièce de résistance for the principal male and female characters of a full-length ballet. A grand pas for three soloists is a "grand pas de trois", and for four soloists is a "grand pas de quatre". An elaborate grand pas is found in the 1862 ballet "The Pharaoh's Daughter" and its 2000 revival, consisting of an entrée, variations for three demi-soloists, a grand adage, a waltz for the corps de ballet, variations for three lead soloists, and coda générale.
