Enter a fantasy world and atmosphere with fairytale music on medici.tv!


The timeless and enchanting stories of fairytales are filled with character archetypes: the young and emotional lover, the romantic hero eager to prove himself, the scheming villain character…The infinite possibilities these characters present have proved to be an inexhaustible source of inspiration and background material within literature (take the Grimm Brothers, for example), and composers have transposed these tales into classical dance, music, and opera. World-famous heroes have thus graced concert halls in every country, accompanied by original melodies, and are now available to watch on medici.tv. Petipa’s Sleeping Beauty, based on Tchaikovsky’s celebrated score, magnificent interpretations of The Nutcracker, Purcell’s The Fairy Queen, Nureyev’s brilliant Cinderella: all perfect for Christmas celebrations or any other time of year…you can also find Jiří Kylián's version of L'Enfant et les sortilèges, set to Ravel’s sublime music, or Jean-Christophe Maillot's grandiose ballet Shéhérazade set to the music of Rimsky-Korsakov. Rediscover the masterpieces of your childhood that you love most in a completely new light—through the calm of the piano and orchestra, the dramatic sounds of the drums or acoustic guitar in film music, the intricate beauty of strings, vocal and choir arrangements—in remarkable productions to lighten your mood!
