A bit of Giselle history... Originally the lift was done 'vertically', then the Soviets introduced the 'horizontal' lift. An interesting case is the BNC lift which ended up as a combination of both under the two major influences in Alonso's professional life. Equally interesting is what happens before and after the lifts, and how the tempo got slowed down in 50 years.
