The Sleeping Beauty for me. I'd rank the 'Rose Adagio' among the composer's 4-5 greatest inventions  8)

Love them all, but Sleeping Beauty here too! I hope it's not the only votes it gets!

I was hoping to gum up the works, but Boris Alexandrovich's only stage work was a never finished opera from his student days, so Sleeping Beauty, on the grounds that it is not nearly as over familiar as the others.

"Javert, though frightful, had nothing ignoble about him. Probity, sincerity, candor, conviction, the sense of duty, are things which may become hideous when wrongly directed; but which, even when hideous, remain grand."

Anyway, I voted for The Sleeping Beauty even though I'm not much of a fan of Tchaikovsky's ballets. :-\

Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
