The Odile/Sigfried, pas de deux is one of the most vibrant and stirring acts (Act III) in the Petipa ballet repetoire. It creates a perfect foil for the delicacy and beauty of the white swan, Odette, and shows how one, so in love as Sigfried is with Odette, can still be fooled, by dazzle and glitter, But, as in all fairy tales, love wins in the end, even in death.
