Thank you so much for this precious treasure! This was one of Sylvie's greatest roles: a triumph of musicality and immensely rich of details. It brings memories of countless glorious performances of this jewelpiece of a ballet with her and Jonathan Cope and later her and Massimo Murru with the Royal Ballet. The whole cast was extraordinary (David Drew, later Anthony Dowell, Christopher Saunders, ... and Philip Gammon's playing was unforgettable. For this Tokyo venture, Sylvie managed to secure the Royal Ballet sets. I have never seen and will never see this ballet without Sylvie.
Phillip Gammon was a genius when accompanying ballet: it was a joy to hear and the interplay of the piano tempo and the dancing was exquisite and didn't get enough recognition
@@margaretlavender9647 Strangely I saw Natalia Osipova dance this two weeks ago. Fabulous acting and technique. Different from Sylvie, but equally electric and engaging.
What a real treasure this is!! I have hoped to see this wonderful ballet of Ashton's more , and here it is, Sylvie Guillem and Massimo Murru in such a good video quality. Thank you!
braga144b :Thank you for uploading this delightful, oh-so-Russian ballet! I had only seen it with Makarova and Dowell, and loved the choreography, the music, sets and costumes. It is a wonderful piece and the passage of time has only made me appreciate it more. This cast was also excellent Thank you again.
Sylvie is very good at this role! She very clearly has studied the performance of Lynn Seymour for this role and has acquired some of her magic. All the cast is very good 👌
Yes, they're good, but Seymour was magic. A real one off, still alive and still able to coach, it makes the shunning of her by the Royal Ballet and the Macmillan Foundation all the more criminal.
@@oliviakirby1409 I couldn’t agree more! After all, this role was made for her! Without her this part would either not exist or would be very different. She was a real inspiration. Some of the most iconic female roles in neoclassical ballets are choreographed for her. It’s a great thing that the initial production of this choreography was recorded and can be found on TH-cam. And one more thing: the queen hasn’t decided yet to make her a Dame. I think it’s not fair.
Wonderful acting and dancing. This was a ballet I didn't know. Really beautiful choreography & a lot of story in a fairly short ballet. Thank you for introducing me. I will have to read A Month in the Country now.
The way Sylvie disentangles the English frothy snares of the choreography with her French nonchalance does not really surprise me. She could drink a cup of tea while doing that first variation. And I was really smitten with her sensitivity and touched by her acting. Spectacular.
“English “frothy snares”?? You are talking about Fred Ashton - please!! No such thing as ‘frothy snares’ by him. Think of Symphonic Variations, Monotones 1 & 11.
braga144, thanks a million for this beautiful performance. Do you happen to know the full cast for this performance? I didn't know that Sylvie Guillem and Massimo Murru went on tour to Japan with The Royal Ballet in 2005.
It was not a tour with Rb I think it had been organized by Guillem. i know that the role of Vera should have been danced by Emanuela Montanari from La Scala but she was injured so she was replaced by a dancer from Tokiyo Ballet I can't recognize.
@@marcialfernandez3298 I know the scenery is the same of RB and I am pretty sure that in that tour there was even Ciaravola dancing Alonso's Carmen with Murru. They could have done a coproduction with RB.
But we need date, or at least, the YEAR of this performance! Just read a comment saying it’s Tokyo 2005. But you posting it, should have put it at the top. I saw Lynn and Dowell in the 1970s. With Denise Nunn as Vera and Marguerite Porter as the maid, and Wayne Sleep as Kolya, David Drew & Derek Rencher as husband and the ‘admirer’. Wonderful! Then Makarova and Dowell, 1984 - Plus on BBC TV. Amazing.
If you look at the video in the titles you will know where and when. So difficult? If you don’t look at the video and therefore you are not interested why are you asking? Happy you saw so many couples.
Merci pour cette vidéo !! Sylvie était merveilleuse !!! elle manque toujours à la danse !!
A bit of beauty each day makes life worth living. This is more than a bit😉!

Well said
There is a lack of épaulement, which in Ashton is most certainly not froth but has a dramatic intent.

@@braga144, it´s somehow confusing to me because the scenery is the Royal Ballet's settings and so is the pianist, Philip Gammon.

Im welchem Jahr haben sie es getanzt? Tolle Performance!
6.5.2005 it's in the titles :)
When was this production shot? Is this Paris ballet?
no it's Guillem with several artists on tour in Tokyo in 2005
Which company was she dancing with?
not a company, it was a tour of Guillem with other artists from different countries in Tokyo.
But we need date, or at least, the YEAR of this performance! Just read a comment saying it’s Tokyo 2005. But you posting it, should have put it at the top. I saw Lynn and Dowell in the 1970s.
