This movement uses material from the ballet’s Prologue: No. 1, Introduction, and No. 4c, La fée des lilas (‘The Lilac Fairy’). The King and Queen hold a christening ceremony for their daughter Aurora. Being affronted that she was not invited to the celebration, the evil fairy Carabosse casts a spell that Aurora will prick herself and die on her 16th birthday. The Lilac Fairy intervenes but does not have enough power to undo the complete curse. She can however ameliorate the harsh death sentence to 100 years of sleep instead. Following a short dramatic opening section depicting the evil Carabosse, the Lilac Fairy appears in gentle 6/8 time to weave her spell.
