This evening-length production by American-German choreographer John Neumeier, based on the eponymous novel by Alexandre Dumas, fils, demands both technical perfection from the soloists and a profound ability to relate to this story of doomed love.
La Dame aux Camélias tells the story of Marguerite, a courtesan suffering from consumption who leads a life of debauchery until she falls in love with the young Armand. Keeping her illness a secret, she agrees to leave Paris to live with him in the country, but then is convinced by Armand’s scandalised father to give him up. By the time Armand discovers why Marguerite abandoned him, it is too late. At their final meeting she dies in his embrace.

I believe this is Igone de Jongh. If it can be confirmed and so give her credit.

[@DutchNatOperaBallet]

Yes, you're right. The movie shows Igone de Jongh and Marijn Rademakers amongst others.

@@DutchNatOperaBallet Unfortunately the only thing I have of hers is her performance of Myrtha in the Giselle blu-ray. Such a presence, terrifying, addictive, precise, graceful. Hope there are more to be found somewhere, sometime.

@@stevie8763 We've looked up our stock, but unfortunately we don't have any other Blu-ray recordings with Igone de Jongh.
