      Just a thought, but I’d love to see you do a piece on bizarre percussion instruments. I just watched the end of Ozawa’s Carmina Burana, and Midway through the last section the tympanist appeared to be beating two lollipops on his thigh.

    No joke, this video actually made me understand Ballet. I always had great respect for the amount of effort and skill those perfomers exude, but I just never got the aesthetic appeal of it from an audiences perspective. Now I do. All of those precise movements, not just of the legs and feet but also the head, perfectly in tune with the music. I know, to lovers of Ballet I must sound like some oaf who just realized that grass is, indeed, green, and I apologize for that. I'm just glad that I can finally appreciate this artform in the way it deserves to be.

      @@oxoelfoxo There are tons, and more than enough in Swan Lake (Siegfried's variation in Act III is both great and has a great violin part) . Frankly, as a male dancer the fact that "we try ballet" videos with guys always have them doing women's steps or variations is kinda annoying.

    This video is so wholesome, not a single drop of toxic masculinity to be found 😊
    Also, as someone with social anxiety that sometimes stops me for trying things I like just because it happens to be in a group setting, I love seeing videos and stuff of other people learning new things (any new hobby or sport or skill); it already takes some courage to go into something with no experience while expecting to embarrass yourself, so I really admire people who go for it anyway and even film it. It's kind of inspiring, because then I see it's not embarrassing and that some of my anxieties are irrational.

    @anivijudi 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Talk about an artform that requires 40 hours of practice a day. Good job Brett and Eddy, that little bit of dancing is actually really hard to do properly because it's so easy to get in the way of your partners if you get something wrong. I wouldn't say they were elegant, but they kept up with the tempo really well and came in and out of the dance when they should. I suppose as musicians that's not surprising but it's a skill most would fumble.

  • @Lafalot54
    @Lafalot54 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    As someone who's done ballet almost all my life, I think it's hilarious when people try to do it for the first time. I learned this dance when I was like 12. You two did surprisingly well, and the changes with the two other swans were coordinated super smoothly. Not surprisingly you got the musicality down. And dancing while playing the music at the end is giving Lindsey Stirling a run for her money lol
