Pygmalion (1800)

No performance recording

We have not found a video of Pygmalion being danced. It premiered in 1800, before choreography was routinely notated and well before it was filmed — works of that period usually survive as scores, libretti and designs rather than as movement.

If you know of a recording — a broadcast, an archive holding, a company’s own footage — we would like to hear about it.
