Leggerezza estatica ed eterea in questa fluente decorrenza dei passi sulle punte in eundo della ballerina. Ottima riconduzione dei passi a musica in piena grazia all'euritmia melodica. MOLTO BRAVA E CONVINCENTE. BIGHIN GIULIO RENZO
My favourite piece of music. It is a really stormy evening tonight so I have come to the studio to learn this variation. I thought it looked like a lovely emotional, technically simple variation. How wrong I was. To make every movement fluid, gentle... and how hard it is to do a 45 degree arabesque as opposed to shooting the leg up to balance, and to come straight into 5th.... it is such a hard dance. Just hope I can dance it as a professional one day 💓
Makarova did this perfectly from face, hands, arms in time with the music and she is so beautiful as a swan swimming in a lake with a full moon! Chopin would cry at this perfect match of music and dance!
Natalia Makarova is the archetype of the modern ballerina. She is the only Odette that I would recognize as brilliant , and the wrist are suppose to be flex, you people dont think she knows that? She is technically sound, yet, she transcends technique. She is living as if she is the character she performs. Being super flexible and having unreal extensions does not make a ballerina an artist.this is another example of brilliant performance, and lazy critique from haters and wannabes
Just thought of another romantic story of a nymph entering a big window and visiting Chopin while sleeping, as moonlight streams into his bedroom...or maybe that's La Sylphide.
Watch Fonteyn dancing this then you will see beautiful port de bras! Hers here are stiff and angular and she leaves her hands hanging not completing the line of the arm which I think is a common trait through the Russian School.
David watch Fonteyn dancing the Prelude-beautiful simple port de bras and no dead hands. Michele he hit the nail on the head-look at the Russian trained-dead hands I call them.
Be constructive Philip. So easy to be aggressive and not give an opinion on what you see in this performance. True she was a great dancer but in this case not so much.
Mr. You sound as though you don't know what you are talking about. Just the way you are wording things, like the way her wrists are shows how little you really know
If you cant see that her port de bras are stilted, angular, and with a tendency to be broken at the wrist then I can't obviously get you to see that. Because you don't want to.
Very great dancer but she does not do this well. Her arms are student level in this video at best. Stiff and very bad wrists. This is simply not her repertoire.
Your comments are totally invalid and show that you have no understanding of the Fokine style and Mariinsky heritage. Who are you to criticize a dancer that is 10 times greater than you ever were.....
You could very well be the first person in history to call Natalia Makarova's port de bras student level. I am actually dumbfounded at your comment. Are you a student dancer?
You have to watch the dancer to give an opinion and as David said here her arms are not good in fact the whole piece is much too slow, styalised and lacking in smoothness from one enchainement to another.

Божественная пластика!!! Как дуновение ветра и шелест листвы.
Delicadeza, suavidade, pezinhos de fada! Lindídsima!

Very well said. thank you!
Simply brilliant can watch it over and over again
Exquisite!!
Perfection.
Realmente

Correct...That's La Sylphide
I don’t think there’s any story to this
Точно- Сильфида, именно такая
These pedestrians criticising Makarova's port de bras. I pity them. :D

Also to add, too much emotion is as bad as too little. Here it looks forced-less is more.
@@sedekiman good point!
La música per somiar
The sheer wings could maybe be attached to the arms as they move?

The only thing suffering from death is your brain.

That level of idiocy merits aggression.
I suppose it is a case of none so blind as those that cannot see.
No opinion merits aggression-too much of that in the world.

Mr Sukonick, you can't be serious. If you don't like the dancer, don't watch the clip. And don't intrude on the enjoyment of others who appreciate it.
