    I danced for a ballet company years ago. The Nutcracker was always something I looked forward doing to every holiday. I never got tired of it.

    Nutcracker (Casse Noisette) isn't really a part of Christmas tradition in France. So, I don't know really the music, or even the Ballet. But, you make me want to see more. So thank to you for that.
    Before, I was totally insensitive to ballet dancing, even though I have a cousin in my family who almost became a professional dancer, and now teaches ballet. Even though, I have artistic work..., but I don't know, it didn't affect me.
    Today (it's been a long time actually), after years of practicing Martial Arts (I see similarities between martial arts and ballet / dance), I see the bodily performance, I even admire it. And followed the beauty. I now see how beautiful classical dance is. And even more, I follow a ballet dancer on TH-cam !!!
    So thank you again for making me appreciate the world of ballet even more.

    That is Catherine Hurlin as Clara - she played Clara in the first performance of ABT's Nutracker and I was in the audience in New York - actually, it was in Brooklyn. I saw her as a student in the JKO School and she was obviously a standout and headed for the company. She's a Soloist with the ABT Company now.

  • @erpollock
    @erpollock 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The ABT Nutcracker is an entirely different Nutcracker from Balanchine's which I was used to and saw many times at NYC Ballet. I consider that the definitive Nutcracker because it is Balanchine. ABT wanted obviously their own production, and this is a reimagining of Nutcracker. Who was the choreographer?

    omg i had a performance (showcase thing because it's a school) and my headpiece is big and heavy with a really quick change so i didn't have time to pin the headpiece onto my head and it almost fell off onstage but i saved it (sort of) by kinda altering parts of the dance and literally adjusting it onstage as fast as possible

Our bodies work the same way.
