    The movement of her arms, my goodness... I know nothing about ballet, but this really touched me. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful...

    What I love about this piece is that there aren't any big flashy moves, turns, etc. it's not about showing off, it's about exquisite technique, making sure every detail is perfect, and above all else expressing the character. In my eyes, this is possibly the greatest piece in all of ballet

      Yes. And Plisetskaya and Makarova too. Pavlova's was a realistic animal (truly resembled a bird agonizing). Makarova brought the raw emotion through movement back, while Plisetskaya was the first to give the piece this White Swan feeling, this delicate sadness

    Mesmerizing. So many beautiful and insanely talented ballerinas have danced this , so many are fabulous. But none like this one. This is so subdued, so introverted, so absolutely perfect- she makes you forget that she is a person and not an actual swan. Those arms… a swan resigning to her death, against the background of equally perfect music. My goodness. I am speechless.

    Ballerina dancing was created to allow Uliana Lopatkina to perform the Dying Swan. It's the best performance for such a dance, both the choreography and the quality of the dancer. It's out of this world. Brings me tears every time I watch it.

  • @hughman55
    @hughman55 8 ปีที่แล้ว +290

    The BEST "Dying Swan" EVER. And that is
    saying a lot because there have been tens of thousands of them.
    Lopatkina has found something extra inside herself that sets this apart
    from all the rest. Her swan is not overwrought like so many others.
    Most today border on parody. This interpretation has a quiet
    resignation to it that highlights her beauty as a ballerina. Truly
    breathtaking and to say "the best ever" is no overstatement. Cellist
    included. Gorgeous playing and so in sync with the dancer. My
    enjoyment of watching this solo ended decades ago and I avoid it always. But, I was looking for
    video of Lopatkina, of which there is too little, and found this. Glad I
    did.

      No other performance mesmerises me as much as Lopatkina’s one. She is unique. Her arms movements strongly resemble flapping wings. She literally leans on air so you can feel its density. And yes, “her swan is not overwrought” - you have expressed my thought exactly, thanks.

    • @patriciaperry7606

    • @cheyanneturner5158
      @cheyanneturner5158 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The arms do all the work here, they express panic, and strength to carry on but then defeat and even grace is shed to the very end when she dies. This performance is special.

    I have never been a ballet enthusiast but I found this video and this dancer by accident because I had heard of the dying swan, knew its sad music and thought I'd have a look for fun. It has been an amazing discovery. I was riveted by this dancer from beginning to end, to start with by what seems to be the impossibility of the continuous beating of her legs. Second amazement, the finesse and fluidity of her arm movements and her gestures. I was trying not to sob by half way through, but at the end I just burst and cried. I am still emotional writing this. Just as well I can't type in my tears. Epoustouflant! What emotion! Magnificent dancer! Thank you so much, uploader, for making my day..

    Это просто эстетический восторг какой-то. Её руки, выгибающиеся, плавные, действительно крылья лебедя. Эти движения ногами, специально быстрые, добавляют дрожи, той самой дрожи, которая так нужна образу. А как она попадает в музыку! Прекрасный, нежный, величественный лебедь и его гибель.

    Unparallelled ... period. Lopatkina's artistry, brilliant technical skill and unequaled interpretation are already legendary. Throughout ballet's history, there have been many great prima ballerinas; Lopatkina towers above them all. She has become the standard by which everyone else is measured.

    This is absolutely breathtaking. The cellist is also completely stunning. I'm just blown away. This is the best interpretation I've ever seen or heard.

    • @hughman55
      @hughman55 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You are 100% correct. Yes, the BEST "Dying Swan" EVER. And that is saying a lot because there have been tens of thousands of them. Lopatkina has found something extra inside herself that sets this apart from all the rest. Her swan is not overwrought like so many others. Most today border on parody. This interpretation has a quiet resignation to it that highlights her beauty as a ballerina. Truly breathtaking and to say "the best ever" is no overstatement. Cellist included. Gorgeous playing and so in sync with the dancer. I no longer enjoy watching this solo and avoid it always. But, I was looking for video of Lopatkina, of which there is too little, and found this. Glad I did.

      +hughman55 I'm absolutely agree. I was a long time ballerina also. I know there's a lot of great ballerinas , but Ulyana Lopatkina is special over all.

      Hi! Elena Taylor. As a ballerina & ballet's lover, Yes. I have heard, I have seen her dancing (in videos, of course), not only dancing Dying Swam, but also The Dragonfly and others. I have seen many documentals about her & ever have read her biography...I love Anna Pavlova & her love for the swans that she had in a lake at her garden & like a great russian ballerina. Thanks.

    A fantastic piece of art. I refuse to believe that we, as humans, can't do this every day and present ourselves artfully all the time. This is masterful. I am in tears when the conductor presents the orchestra I only wish that we were orchestrated as such everyday. I love this and truly believe that this beauty is alive in everyone of us. Superb!
