Structure Section Length

Hello, the The Sleeping Beauty (ballet) § Structure section of this article appears very long and detailed for a Wikipedia article. I propose it be removed, however, I am not an expert in ballet articles. Please let me know if the information is pertinent to this article, otherwise I will remove it and create a link to the information deleted in case anyone wishes to put it back.--ElaineBM (talk) 20:28, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Below the external links section of this article, there is a link to an article called List of compositions by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. This article has information listed in a very similar format to the information below the Structure section. There are also similar lists of structure information under Tchaikovsky's other ballet articles, including The Nutcracker and Swan Lake. Thus, I think the best place for this information would be a new article similar to List of compositions by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky containing the Structure section information and linked below List of compositions by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in external links. Please let me know if anyone has other thoughts on this section.--ElaineBM (talk) 20:11, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Disney song

The disney song "Once Upon a Dream" is based on this waltz's melody. It should be noted.--Surten (talk) 01:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Surten

Question about DVD date

"Although the 1851 Kirov production by Konstantin Sergeyev is available on DVD/Video..."

Should it be 1951, or is this another reconstruction? Robina Fox 19:26, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:GSB022.jpg

The image Image:GSB022.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

Long and obscure sentence

The ballet scenario that Tchaikovsky worked on was based on the Brothers Grimm's version of Perrault's work entitled 'Dornröschen', which with the Princess's parents (the King and the Queen) having survived the 100-year sleep to celebrate the Princess's wedding to the Prince although Vsevolozhsky wisely incorporated some of Perrault's characters from other stories into the ballet, such as Puss in Boots and Little Red Riding Hood.

That's very bad grammar, and I'd gladly boldly change it, except that I can't work out what it's trying to say. -- JackofOz (talk) 02:37, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Suite - 66a

I miss some information regarding the suite (numbered as Op.66a). Why was composed? When? And the most important, the numbers that were used by Tchaikovsky.

Small mistake: It's 'EulenbUrg edition', not 'EulenbErg' (in the first line). Sorry I can't correct that myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.224.134.167 (talk) 09:57, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Rose Adage

I tried watching The Sleeping Beauty Ballet via youtube but there are so many variations. While The Russian National Archives told me that they have no photo or videos of the original performance when this was performed the 1st time, and Charles Perrault book I found on the internet also do not give details about the 4 suitors.

Can anyone enlight me on the 4 suitors during Rose Adage? Where do these men come from? I cannot tell from their costumes. Every video has a different version. Can anyone tell me what is the original version? Thanks a lot. 182.2.147.132 (talk) 01:25, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
