Story
발레리나가 무대 위로 미끄러지듯 나오면서 두 팔로 허공에 멋진 선을 만들어내죠. 커다란 오케스트라의 현악기들에서는 아름다운 멜로디가 연주됩니다. 발레리나가 잠자는 공주인 거예요: 사악한 마녀 때문에 깊은 마법의 잠에 빠졌어요. 하지만 이제 잘생긴 왕자가 깨워줬기 때문에, 둘은 즐겁게 춤을 춰요. 왕자는 강하고 튼튼해 보이죠. 어떨 때는 발레리나가 백조의 호수의 오데뜨 공주이기도 해요. 그럼 주위에 다른 무용수들이 나오죠 - 하얀 시폰을 입은 백조들이 음악에 맞춰 무늬를 만들어내는 거예요. 근데 어떨 때는 또 슈가플럼 요정일 때도 있어요, 그럼 호두까기 인형이라는 작품에서 크리스마스의 기쁨을 표현하고 있겠죠.
