Swan Lake first premiered #onthisday in 1877 🦢 It's considered one of the most demanding productions for the corps de ballet, not only because of its technically challenging choreography but also because of the way the dancers need to move in complete unison to create the effect of a flock of swans. It's truly hypnotic and mesmerising to watch 😍 #swanlakeballet #swanlake #parisoperaballet | Marquee TV
