World Ballet Day on 1 October 2015 saw The Royal Ballet join The Australian Ballet, Bolshoi Ballet, The National Ballet of Canada and San Francisco Ballet to provide exclusive rehearsal footage, a chance to see how the different companies warm up for the day and interviews with choreographers and leading figures in the dance world. In this extract from rehearsals, Royal Ballet First Artist Matthew Ball rehearses the role of Escamillo from Carlos Acosta's Carmen in front of an audience of students from The Royal Ballet School.
Georges Bizet’s Carmen is one of the most successful operas ever written. Its gorgeous melodies have secured the opera’s hold on the popular imagination - Escamillo’s Toreador Song, Carmen’s Habanera, Don José’s Flower Song and many passages for orchestra and chorus are among the most widely known pieces of Western classical music. This melodic richness, combined with a searingly dramatic story adapted from a novella by Prosper Mérimée, has made Carmen attractive bait for choreographers: figures as diverse as Marius Petipa, Roland Petit, Alberto Alonso, Mats Ek and Richard Alston have all been drawn to this tale of jealousy and desire.
Carlos Acosta, Principal Guest Artist of The Royal Ballet and one of the most famed dancers in the world, now presents his own adaptation of Bizet and Mérimée’s story. In his new version for The Royal Ballet, the story’s universal and timeless themes are laid bare in a sparse and powerful setting. Martin Yates, orchestrator for Don Quixote, provides an original adaptation of Bizet’s score, including onstage roles for the Royal Opera Chorus and a flamenco musician.
This is amazing!!!
He is bloody gorgeous too...
All the girls are so mesmerized.
I mean, I don't blame them.
so talented, and probably the most beautiful human i've ever seen
lol
I went to the live performance, Matthew Ball is definitely one to watch!
This is AMAZING. Exhausting to even watch. And he does this with such power and grace. Unbelievable talent :)
Matthew is so gorgeous and talented It is hard to believe.
Great that this is still on YT! Such great potential after a wonderful debut as Lensky! A pity I would be missing out on this production!
On a side note, now that Im viewing this again, Matthew strangely reminds me of Robert Pattinson..
I was thinking that exactly
allieally Omg SAME
Matthew Ball:Robert Pattinson. Matthew Golding:Brad Pitt. Any more in the Royal Ballet?!
And Sergei Polunin.
Paul is such a good pianist!
Matthew is stunning 😍😍
Matt makes it appear...so frivolous....how GREAT....it all works...even w/ input. Very lovely and amazing....
handsome and powerful
Good God ! Matthew is a Luchino Visconti's beauty.
Love the dance, Matthew, the music. It's all so lovely. But I also have to comment on how handsome is Ivan Gil Ortega.
Not only is Senor Ortega a handsome man, a talented teacher, but most importantly, , he is a considerate and patient coach.
This is absolutely amazing. Congratulations to everyone involved!!
Matthew Ball is so handsome and most of all persistent and talented..what a patience you must have to be good dancer ,repeat and repeat over and over for perfection....and also the Choreographer Ivan Gil-Ortega!
Fabulous! Absolutely fascinating to watch this detailed work on the perfect form...

I like Marienela it is cute and beautiful I like it.
And she is good at ballet.
Wow!
He is so pretty and looks to me like Robert Pattinson. What moves too!
was posted in my birthday kkkkkk
Before I try that level of rehearsing I would want to know what the moves mean in relation to the whole dance like is it a story and also how well wold the teacher know about the moves and dance agendas in general. More for other dance styles though as ballet comes with key sets of classical rules that I can understand. Other types of dances leave me wondering what something meant or a synopsis until I have to question authority.
You have a point. Gil Ortega did not expound at all on why Escamillo is choreographed like that at that point in the ballet: what's going on, what's in his mind, etc. Maybe that comes later when Matthew is rehearsing with whoever is dancing Carmen.
