Titon et l'Aurore (English: "Tithonus and Aurora") is an opera in three acts and a prologue by the French composer Jean-Joseph de Mondonville which was first performed at the Académie royale de musique, Paris on 9 January 1753.
 The authorship of the libretto has been subject to debate; Mondonville's contemporaries ascribed the prologue to Antoine Houdar de la Motte and the three acts of the opera to the Abbé de La Marre.
 "Titon et l'Aurore" belongs to the genre known as the "pastorale héroïque".
 The work played an important role in the so-called Querelle des Bouffons, a dispute over the relative merits of the French and Italian operatic traditions which dominated the intellectual life of Paris in the early 1750s.
 The tremendous success of Mondonville's opera at its premiere was an important victory for the French camp (although their Italian rivals claimed that this was because they had been excluded from their seats by members of the army).
 "Titon" was one of Mondonville's most popular works and went on to enjoy several revivals during his lifetime.
The 1917 Petipa/Ivanov/Drigo revival of Swan Lake is a famous version of the ballet "Swan Lake", (ru. "
Лебединое Озеро"), (fr.
 "Le Lac des Cygnes").
 This is a ballet by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky based on an ancient German legend, presented in either four acts, four scenes (primarily outside Russia and Eastern Europe), three acts, four scenes (primarily in Russia and Eastern Europe) or, more rarely, in two acts, four scenes.
 Originally choreographed by Julius Reisinger to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (opus 20), it was first presented as "The Lake of the Swans" by the Ballet of the Moscow Imperial Bolshoi Theatre on 20 February/4 March 1877 (Julian/Gregorian calendar dates) in Moscow, Russia.
 Although the ballet is presented in many different versions, most ballet companies today base their stagings both choreographically and musically on this revival by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov, staged for the Imperial Ballet, first presented on 15 January/27 January 1895, at the Imperial Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia instead of the original version.
The Sleeping Beauty (Russian: Спящая красавица / "Spyashchaya krasavitsa") is a ballet in a prologue and three acts, first performed in 1890.

"Sleeping Beauty" (French: "La Belle au bois dormant" "The Beauty Sleeping in the Wood") by Charles Perrault, or "Little Briar Rose" (German: "" ), is a classic fairy tale which involves a beautiful princess, a sleeping enchantment, and a handsome prince.
 The version collected by the Brothers Grimm was an orally transmitted version of the originally literary tale published by Charles Perrault in "Histoires ou contes du temps passé" in 1697.
 This in turn was based on "Sun, Moon, and Talia" by Italian poet Giambattista Basile (published posthumously in 1634), which was in turn based on one or more folk tales.
 The earliest known version of the story is found in the narrative "Perceforest", composed between 1330 and 1344 and first printed in 1528.
