What is the Best Swan Lake Blu-ray?

 
 

What is the best Swan Lake Blu-ray? Swan Lake is the most esteemed classical ballet, and many versions (with various endings) have been created. We now (Jan. 2020) have 10 Blu-rays of Swan Lake. Of these, two stand out as superior, and both of them are based on the “tragic-ending” Nureyev choreography:

The Royal Ballet has produced 3 versions of Swan Lake in Blu-ray with different stars! Only the last one from 2019 is competitive with an A grade. Finally, let’s don’t forget the gay version from Mathew Bourne, which is a hoot. Strangely, there is no competitive Swan Lake from any Russian ballet company.

We have full reviews of all the Swan Lake Blu-rays with screenshots that you can access through the Alphalist.
