    One of the most beautiful ballets. The pas de deux is thrilling, a perfect marriage of music and dance.

    i keep running into videos from this company, and I didn't really know where they were located. This video, which was so beautiful, made me search. This was a fabulous production, and a glorious company. I now know to always follow and honor the Dutch National Ballet/Het Nationale Ballet. They are really good.

    Grande senso d'occupazione spaziale nel corollario accorrente e danzante a fronte dei protagonisti che sono il perno d'una motile e composita coreografia.Bravissimi tutti.Bighin Giulio Renzo

    This music is so gorgeous. Together with the Pathétique Symphony, the 3rd Suite is Tchaikovsky's best orchestral music. And the Polonaise is Balanchine at his most exciting. I do believe that's Michaela DePrince in the corps!

    Beautifully executed, although I'm always disappointed when the tempi is too slow. Balachine's choreography loses some of its attack and excitement without the intended speed.

    • @karenkaren3189
      @karenkaren3189 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Philip Condenzio I basically agree, especially after watching the stupendous video of Kirkland and Baryshnikov from the 1970’s. However the slower tempo has its own beauty, especially in the Pas....their dancing is creamy, elegant, luminous.

    • @mathildewesendonck7225
      @mathildewesendonck7225 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well in this case I‘m not sure, because I don’t think Tchaikovsky intended it to be played superfast. And the music was there before the choreography, after all. I have one life recording of the piece from a ballet performance that is superfast, and it sounds weird. Some passages in the violins are impossible to be played well in the tutti at such a speed, same with some woodwind sections

    Even missing the first half, this is one of the best T&Vs I've ever seen. Even the corps looked good! Haven't seen Makhatelli before, and she's absolutely terrific, almost out-Gelsey-ing Gelsey Kirkland in places. Thanks for posting (and please, do you have the rest posted somewhere?)

    • @joscarman
      @joscarman 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      No one compares to Gelsey in this ballet. Watch
      Gelsey's phrasing and her astonishing tempi in the solos. She defined Theme and no one has matched her since. Period.

    I can't understand how the people hacking and coughing so loudly you can hear the mucus sliding down their throats as this most exquisite dance is on stage==I think if I were in the audience I would be breathless, holding in my breathe watching this in a kind of shock at the beauty and talent---. I also hate it when in a classical music concert people just go wild coughing during a pause--it's totally disgusting and a creep show part of audience participation. How and why do people cough like this for classical music and ballet performances like they are dying?

    Do you happen to have the first half of this performance posted? I found sort of a "good parts" version you posted, but the filming is not nearly as clear. I just fell in love with this ballerina just watching Navarre Brixen's comilation video showing the girl's variation that leads into the pdd

      Balanchine was European and this music definitely is. The best ballet dancers and ballet companies are by far in Europe, especially when you include Russia. But sure.
