Ballet égyptien, Op. 12 (1875), is Alexandre Luigini\'s best-known composition and the only one of his works in the standard repertoire. It was dedicated to Jules Pasdeloup. The ballet consists of eight movements, from which two different concert suites have been extracted. The first suite is the better known.
It originally gained prominence when it was included in Act II of Giuseppe Verdi\'s opera Aida for a performance in Lyon in 1886. The fame of the piece inspired Luigini to write other pieces on exotic themes, such as Ballet russe, Marche d\'émir,[1] and symphonic poems Fête arabe, Op. 49 and Carnaval turc, Op. 51.[2]
Ballet égyptien has been arranged for piano solo, 2 pianos 4-hands and 2 pianos 8-hands,[3] as well as for brass band.
It has been recorded numerous times, by conductors such as Anatole Fistoulari, John Lanchbery, Jean Fournet and Richard Bonynge. It often appears in compilations of light music.[4]
It is perhaps best known as the background music used by the British music hall act Wilson, Keppel and Betty for their \"sand dance\". It also appears as music in 1930\'s Arctic Antics.[5]

Quick noteon grading:
The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don\'t give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately
When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
\"EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET\" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
\"VERY QUIET\" is anabove averagequiet record for a given pressing.
\"Quiet\" is a record that is a great example with some noise.
These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.
