People need to appreciate just how historic and IMPORTANT this production is. First of all, the choreography and mise-en-scène are not "new" - they are restored. For instance, you are seeing the choreography in the Peasant PDD exactly as danced by Mikhail Obukhov and Vaganova herself at the turn-of-the-20th century, complete with those difficult single tours-en-l'air in opposite directions in the 1st male variation. But even better, the choreography for Giselle as seen here was restored from what was notated while none other than Anna Pavlova was rehearsed by Petipa himself, circa 1902. Restored passages such as the Willis forming a cross around Giselle after she has risen from the grave shows just why Giselle was once called a "holy ballet" in Imperial Russia.
Have you seen this “Giselle” documentary from 1982, narrated by Anton Dolin? (th-cam.com/video/--FVqDeLByY/w-d-xo.html) In it, he’s teaching 2 dancers the roles of Giselle and Albrecht (sorry, I can’t remember their names), as well as interviewing all of the major Giselles from Spessivtzeva onward, with whom he also danced Albrecht, of course! It even has the only film footage of Spessivtzeva in it, dancing Giselle! From the comments you make, I’m pretty sure that you’ve seen it, but I didn’t want to take any chances-this documentary is a treasure! And I have to say that Smirnova reminds me very much of Spessivtzeva, in many ways!
Когда Смирнова стала "best ballerina"? После того как критиковала Путина? В таком случае Путин выгоден Западу - он делает всё что бы "лучшие" россияне и украинцы покидали свои страны. Наслаждайтесь и продолжайте покупать газ, нефть, удобрения и слать компоненты для ракет 🥳

Jq,
Ольга на вертушку отдала все силы? Впечатление, что потом на диагоналях недостаток баланса.
А вертушка хорошая, но к концу можно было не замедляться

You know Russia is a democracy when the country's best ballerina has to exhile herself because of criticizing Putin
Когда Смирнова стала "best ballerina"? После того как критиковала Путина? В таком случае Путин выгоден Западу - он делает всё что бы "лучшие" россияне и украинцы покидали свои страны. Наслаждайтесь и продолжайте покупать газ, нефть, удобрения и слать компоненты для ракет 🥳
Путин вам ночами снится, видимо. Смотрите "Жизель", а думаете все о нем...
@@Hema_m152 он всем ночами снится! Как Гитлер! А если ещё ядерку всё-таки от маразма своего достанет - то приснится всему миру
