La Source

La Source

La Source is a ballet in three acts/four scenes with a score collaborated on by Léo Delibes and Ludwig Minkus (Minkus: Act I & Act III-Scene 2/Delibes: Act II & Act III-Scene 1). In Vienna it was called Naïla, die Quellenfee (Naïla, the Waternymph).

The choreography is by Arthur Saint-Léon, who collaborated with Charles Nuitter in the libretto. The original designs are by Edouard Desplechin, Jean-Baptiste Lavastre, Auguste Rubé, Chaperon (sets), Paul Lormier (costumes).

The first production opened at the Théâtre Impérial de l´Opéra in Paris on 12 November 1866; with Guglielmina Salvioni (Naïla), Eugenie Fiocre (Nouredda) and Louis Meranté (Djémil) as principal dancers.

Other productions have included: Teatro alla Scala with choreography by Cesare Marzagora after Saint-Léon, Milan, 1875/1876; and New York City Ballet, choreography by George Balanchine, premiere November 23, 1968, New York State Theater, Lincoln Center, with Violette Verdy and John Prinz.
