I was so lucky to have visited the Hermitage, going up those magnificent stairs was amazing !!! That ballroom was exquisite. I watched the movie before I went on the trip, so I already had a sense of having been there. The ballroom scene from War and Peace, a Russian movie, was more accurate in its description. Seen in Entrance of Alexander. One fail in both movies: the Russian aristocracy didn’t speak Russian, only French, English, German. Never Russian.
In 1913 Nicholas II held the last Grand Court Ball in this room in the Winter Palace. In 9 months WW I would break out and and everything would start to fall apart. This scene is a recreation, each actor playing a known guest. It is also the first time since that ball that the room was used for dancing.

A recreation of a ball in 1913? I don’t think so. Those outfits are from the 1820s maybe. Certainly not the Belle Époque. Those outfits would fit with the time period of Alexander the 1st or his brother Nicholas the 1st.
I think you meant the 1903 ball, not 1913, and the 1903 ball was famous for the dictate from the tsar that everyone should wear historical dress from the 17th century. The movies are infamous for screwing up historical facts like this one.
Isn't it sad to hear comments from uneducated unaware n hateful who come from nothing n are still nothing make comments out of ignorance about a world so beautiful n classy that they will never know about n so left w no education n much less class n ignorance(n that's their good points) talk n denegrade out of envy something that is part of history n known about for all to see or learn....so much unlike the ones that comment which no paone will ever care...know about.....or have anything worth mentioning about like roadkill passed on a road n w a sense of pity read the result of their nothingness.
A magnificent scene from an incredible film, all done (supposedly) in a single shot. The end of this scene is yet more amazing, as it shows everyone leaving the ball, along with the perceiver, down the staircases into the street! Amazing stuff. And thank you for posting it!
Absolutely one of the Great Films. I rewatched this last week after too many years and was floored yet again. While the single-take gimmick is the gateway, it’s the fever dream atmosphere and the tours cultural, political, and emotional history that sticks the most. Essential viewing for any serious film fan.
If I am reading IMDB correctly, this music is Mazurka (from opera "A Life For The Tsar") Music by Mikhail Glinka Performed by Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra Conducted by Valery Gergiev

Love this scene, but skip to 5:17 to see Sergey Yentushenko conducting in a beautiful style the catchy music from opera "Life for the Tsar", Act 11, "Masurka". download able from itunes (was #10). Enjoyed the foreign film.Russian Ark.
The lovely element is that the scene is a combination of all the eras we’ve seen throughout the film. We have 1700’s, 1800’s and 1900’s costumes and styles. Notice the orchestra is 20th Century costuming and hairstyles. The partiers have gowns, modern tuxedos, and military uniforms straight from the 19th Century. It’s a delightful and thrilling way of eschewing dialogue in favor of musical and visual storytelling.
All the male attendees in full uniform are officers and considered gentlemen. Most are landed gentry at least, many aristocrats. Any household worth consideration would employ a dance master to teach the young ones. If they had risen from the ranks their officer training would have included manners, etiquette and dance.

the ball is the last ball ever held in the Winter Palace. It's just that the film features vignettes from Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas I, Nicholas II, WWII, & the modern period, so that some fashions got mixed in the final scene
Что-то с трудом верится, что это Россия. В России такое фамильярное поднятие дамы в начале ролика невозможно: это дама, а не проститутка. И поцелуи в обществе могли быть только в руку и на почтительном расстоянии. Не пойму, кто снимал? Не помню, что кто-то из наших режиссёров. Наверняка, фильм иностранный, иностранцы не способны понять, то что для нас - норма. Хотя, возможно, фильм - комедийный, не отражающий реальную историю. Тогда в фильме возможно всё и любое искажение реальности.
I don't know the interior architectural and logistical "choreography" of the Winter Palace: from which room had the ball room guests been coming from prior to entering the ball room ? I ask this question as the ball room atmosphere in this video seems to me rather "dry" and "uncomfortable": no tables around with chairs for people to "rest" between dances, no cocktail tables where to be served a glass of champagne or to put down their glasses. No servants to be seen anywhere either... I guess the filmmakers knew, did they not, that communism may have turned whole populations into slaves, but that well-trained slaves of Russia (or supporting actors in this case) do not make qualified servants by a long shot. At least the movie company should have been able to hire as many as the Tsar would have had at his disposal for this job in 1913.
The rest of the comment beats all ignorance levels so I will just leave it unanswered: I can’t fix stupid. Just have a diet coke with a giant pizza and watch another Hollywood movie, that’s obviously your main source of education.

This is so cool, it's like you're a time traveller and you're there taking part in the dance!

However THIS scene recreates a ball from the reign of Nicholas I as evidenced by the clothing.

@Michael Jarosz: Thanks, your info adds much to my enjoyment and appreciation of the work that went into making the movie.
Beautiful recreation of the last grand ball, incredible!
LOVING the many styles of gowns these ladies are wearing. The white gowns make them look like angels
scenes like these must be triggering the SJW's like crazy. what? white gowns,! white people!, white culture!
@@desiguy55 nothing triggering about a bunch of white generic looking people in gowns

Everything well-considered indeed. But tell Sokurov and all others involved that the ambitious continuous sequence was merely a "gimmick".
If I am reading IMDB correctly, this music is
Mazurka
(from opera "A Life For The Tsar")
Music by Mikhail Glinka
Performed by Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra
Conducted by Valery Gergiev
+Mdebacle It's lovely
wow this is one heck if a spectacular orchestra!
Gergiev with the baton! In his element.
by the way: @5:11 the Orchestra Conductor is Andrea Bocelli who is completely Blind
My favorite scene from the movie...stunning
This is so beautiful. Thank you for uploading this video.
One of my favorite movies!

Stunning!!!!.
This scene was set during the reign of Nicholas i (1825-1855)?.
Can someone time stamp the part where the violinist looks at the camera? I can’t find it😞
It’s not in this clip. This clip cuts off right before it happens. Look at this clip instead at 9:38 mark
th-cam.com/video/nEFITDTTH3g/w-d-xo.html
it's not here, it's after the song ends the orchestra is standing
Wow I wish to be there
Were they celebrating the anniversary of the Romanov family's ruling if so please like or comment
looks warm...

Isn't it Valery Gergiev?
this is the real place when romanov last ball held?
I like
舞踏会がすごい。！！！！！当時ああなんだったのだろう。衣装もどれ１つ同じはないし。エンペラーＮＯ１．
"Russian Ark"
I don’t think one continuous shot works in this sequence.
I'm so confused, is it 1830s or 1900s? I mean the dresses! Btw they all look stunning
It looks more like the 1800’s

R.I.P. Sergey Dreyden.
can you write me which film is this?
Russian Ark
@@stischer47 Thankyou 😀
wish you were there....and me!!!!
Si mai ales ' cița gratie !
...when i see i don't understand why everyone does not want to dance this.....
No one is saying they don't reflect want to ? Historical costumers often held balls like this nowadays.
lol cause you need to learn and there's no grinding. Also the maintanince of these dresses.
How many time periods are represented in these women's costume? I count at least five
the film features Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas I, & Nicholas II
I can't understand how some guys turn up to dance whilst wearing riding boots.
Court Dress Uniform, as demanded by what branch of the armed forces they served in.
Frank Mitchell the riding boots are sexy
I wouldn't know how to explain "sexy" to the ladies whose toes got squashed!
Frank Mitchell i'm a gay man, i only care about the dude
All the male attendees in full uniform are officers and considered gentlemen. Most are landed gentry at least, many aristocrats.

I’m in War and Peace now ❤️
I'm not sure the costumes are maybe 1830's not the Empire fashion.
What's the name of the movie please?
Russian Ark
I've just found your reply and am very thankful 💕

I am pretty sure that this ball is not in the period of Nicholas II. The hairstyle and the dresses of the women dont match with the 1900.
Vitória Mendonça It looks like a Victorian ball of 1870s. Nikolai II’s period was about early 1900s which looked more like Titanic’s period.
the ball is the last ball ever held in the Winter Palace. It's just that the film features vignettes from Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas I, Nicholas II, WWII, & the modern period, so that some fashions got mixed in the final scene
this song kicks serious ass! don't fuck with the russian bear!

Royalty can be so tone deaf. Party while average people suffer.
Average people still suffer, perhaps even more. Despite royalty being an anachronism nowadays.
