Giselle
Nashville Ballet presented Giselle to rave reviews-
"Giselle is a challenging undertaking for any company, but thanks to the vision of artistic director Paul Vasterling, Nashville Ballet's production is a visual feast, featuring stunning costumes, evocative lighting and gorgeous scenery. Whether it is performing a new and daring work of modern ballet, focusing on the creative efforts of contemporary choreographers, or the re-imagination of classic works, Nashville Ballet excels"...

"Nashville Ballet masters the beauty of Giselle. This production spoke to the depth and strength that Nashville Ballet has developed during Paul Vasterling's tenure as artistic director. Nashville Ballet's Giselle is a "must see" this weekend."
Shirley Blackburn, The Tennessean
"Certainly the partnering of Upleger and Harris is not only spectacular, but lyrical and energetic, each blending into the other's emotion through movement evoking at varying points ecstasy, sorrow, and triumph. Giselle may be called a period piece evocative of the past, but in Nashville it was performed fraught with humanity and lightness, giving the audience much to think about concerning ballet's history and the remarkable growth given forth in its performance by Nashville dancers."
