On a hot June night in Rome, Miss Fracci was dancing ''Giselle'' with Rudolf Nureyev (Рудольф Нуриев) for what must have been the 300th time. In the audience, watching, was Erik Bruhn, her partner for five years when she was a guest artist with American Ballet Theater. ''Erik came flying into my dressing room,'' recalls Miss Fracci. ''But, Carla, a metamorphosis has taken place, you have turned into Giselle,'' he said. ''I was relieved and happy: 26 years of hard work, anxieties, panic seemed all worthwhile.''
