This is NOT from Swan Lake (Tchaikovsky) but a solo choreographed in 1907 for Anna Pavlova, called "The Swan," or, popularly, "The Dying Swan."
you are right!
And it's part of "The Carnival of the Animals" if I remember correctly.
Perla Manrique Yes .....Le cygne (The Swan) .... it's the best part (XIII) of XIV parts
@@muzicamea99 the best part is aquarium
@@gorzkawodka Agreed, 100%. It's my favorite out of the whole album.
Not sure how I went from listening to techno to this but I'm in awe
Beautiful!
One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.
Ever heard too?
@@mika72.-Bois ~ Yes, absolutely. Props to the musicians. 🎼🎼💜🎼🎼
Her interpretation of this is way too much, it's almost like a parody of the real thing. By real thing, I mean Uliana Lopatkina's dying swan.
Watch this and know how it's supposed to be done.

@@kearl3490 ~ That was beautiful as well. I think you may be right. But, I’m no expert. Just a lover of dance. Uliana was divine, thank you. 💜
@@treasuretreereynolds1764 If you watch Ms. Lopatkina's performance followed by this one, the difference is stark.
It's so beautiful, isn't it? That someone can have that much control of every single muscle, the enormous discipline that it would take is staggering. I love the ballet but I'm just a boring old musician who was once a gymnast! I had to take ballet but ballerinas and gymnasts have completely different body shapes and I was told right off that the ballet wasn't for me; my muscles in the wrong places.
This is why I am blessed to live on God's green earth. The violin, the beautiful ballerina, Saint-Saen's music. If these things don't bring you to tears you are not breathing.
Im pretty sure its a viola not a violin lol
Ye it's a viola, but this is piece was intended for cello tho
It's a viola, not a violin. Although the piece was composed for cello, not violin or viola.
And the violist f***s it up and gets behind at 0:54. And he's rarely with the conductor and orchestra otherwise.
Might have helped if they'd put him in the pit instead of on the stage for some weird inartistic reason. If he's got that spot on him while he's playing, he possibly can't even see the conductor, poor bugger.
Pity all that makes me cringe, because the dancer's interpretation and technique are lovely and individual.
This is not a good performance at all. The soloist is incompetent, the conductor is utterly disconnected, and the ballerina is a flailing maniac. A dumpster fire. Watch a proper interpretation to experience the real potential of this lovely little piece.
You are absolutely right. Bless you! ❤❤❤👍👍👍
My God she is so graceful. I feel like if the give her feathers light enough she'll fly. Her movements are so smooth
And she doesn't even seem out of breath...
Russian ballet performers are undoubtedly some of the very best in the world!
Me as a cellist I’m feeling betrayed. But kudos to the ballerina.
same
Bro same
same tho 😢
cello could've been way better than viola.
This wonderful piece is to be performed by a cello.
When i tell you I’m sobbing
This is so beautiful, what a glorious ballerina.
Nah the musicians rah let her down, couldn’t keep in time with each other, she did well to react every bloody time
Csodálatos
Lol ‘rah let her down’ 😂
I thought i was the only one as well i was like that’s not right
Well... it actually is supposed to be a cello playing, not surprised that a viola can't keep up;) ( just a joke because people who play violas are known to be a little slow. But srsly, leave the swan to the cellos, it's just prettier.)
@@corinnasixt7599 Even as a viola, i do agree that this piece sounds better- more elegant- with the more resonant cello.
She did such an awesome job of timing herself to the music! Beautiful
Which is doubly impressive given the violist and the orchestra weren't in time with each other ...
I literally said “Ohhhhh wow” put loud. Its beautiful, the song, dance, ambience. wow
I’m crying- 🧍🏼♀️
Same 😔🧚♀️✨💃
Beautiful and Emotional!!😭This rendition of The Swan by Ekaterina Kondaurova was just magical...😢Bringing me to tears along with the mesmerizing and Melancholic music by Camille Saint-Saens!!💖😄
This is the worst violinist I've ever seen, Oh God! He just screw up this song which is so beautiful...
Wesley 0202 tf do u mean? as a pianist myself, i think he played the song wonderfully...like u can play any better
Swans mate for life and are one of the few animals that can die of a broken heart....
That’s so sad
pointe for a long time. amazed
oh my goodness.. my heart is just full of emotion.. amazingly beautiful x
Simply stunning, I'm in floods...but really it should be played on a cello.
Not a ballet person, yet I sat transfixed with this performance. Exquisite, I felt such emotion, it was a beautiful display of mastery and grace.
Stunningly beautiful and coordinated, the violin music and the "dying swan" both very well performed! As very young budding musicians, my parents took us kids to a lot of concerts while growing up. I admit to being a bit squirmy during the music I did not play and/or recognize, but I was NEVER bored watching ballet! I still love it today! Many ballerinas have made their mark with this famous music.
I never thought such a dance would get to me so easily. It’s absolutely beautiful. I can feel the passion from both the ballerina and person playing the viola. Watching this makes me feel a rollercoaster of emotions. Outstanding!!
Absolutely gorgeous ballerina stunningly beautiful ❤️ performance thanks 🙏 TH-cam! Good job as always bravo 👏 very nice pieces 😉.
My understanding of science and art. We humans can express our feelings in many different ways much more than any creature ever existed in history to now but also these feelings are like a thin single human hair, very delicate one can make everything green or everything turns into dust. musician, dancer, painters they give shape to their dreams, Imagination, and filling, science do the same in the lab, science, and art is not very different in many ways but some time prediction little bit different art is very sensitive so we see what we want to see. And thank you for music and the dance
It´s a VIOLA!!, it's not a violin... Amazing performance :)
Querés saber el significado de la perfección? Acá lo tenés... sublime hasta las lágrimas 😍❤️ te transporta a otro mundo,el mundo majestuoso de la danza
she should have been elected president right after this
3:00
I got chills with this part of the dance, a beautiful performance of the ballerina, but I prefer the cello version
Absolutely beautiful. Can't say anything else.
Beautiful composition/delivery!!! Love Saint Saen.
The absolute art of this video
The musicians graceful effortless playing
The dancers delicate technique
The atmosphere of the lighting and art on stage
The dancers character portrayal
It just brings joy to my heart to see how impactful the arts are
Everything is thought out so well, you can truly see the effort and dedication
C'est le Carnaval des Animaux par Camille Saint Saens French The SWAN Le CYGNE en Français great dancer
WOW - It had me crying.
Suuremmoinen taidokas esitys klasisessa paletissa. En ole koskaan ennen nähnyt näin korkeatasoista esitystä. Kiitos kun olit valinnut tämän teoksen se meni sydämeeni palettitanssia on lahjakas uskon että hän on paras minkä olen nähnyt. Kiitos paljon. Asmo Karlsson längelmäki. Finland. ❤️

I can’t get enough of this piece!!! 💕
How beautiful 😻!

Beautiful.
I've never seen ballet to this piece. So inredibly beautiful
This song is so sad.
Livi Cringe it’s not a song... a song is when someone sings... just saying
@@mathildewesendonck7225 yeah, sacrilegious 😂
@@mathildewesendonck7225 jaja WAT
There are so many ballerinas doing this ballet, but this ballerina and Chauvire are the best. Simply beautiful; and that isn't a word that truly describes this performance.
The Swan is a singularly phenomenon by saint saens!
Very nice! My from Hungary!
Utterly beautiful ❤️
So beautiful
Schönheit in höchster Form🤗🤗🤗
😊 hermosa y bella música me transporta al infinito 🌹
Celestial 🌌
Putin at the end caught me off guard😂
Do you know who was sitting next to him?))
@@worst-casescenario6873 pretty sure it’s plisetskaya
@@ThuyLe-jy2me That is correct! You're so smart!
Wow is amazing😀😊
I don't think there is anything more harmonious, passionate, aesthetic and beautiful than the moment where a dancer reaches the point where she merges with the music, showing the potential with her extraordinarily captivating fusion.
-Yoyo (A future artist-"but that's who I am...I think").
The audience clapped way too soon
So soon that any artist would be embarrassed. There was no intake of breath, no pause of wonder at what you just saw/heard.
The best performances render the audience wonderstruck. Only after that pause do they give enthusiastic applause.
i am so blessed to see this for free. once in a lifetime performance for me
Playing this on my trumpet at the moment - such a beautiful tune.
Absolutely gorgeous
Juste sublime, magnifique. Du grand Camille Saint Saens !
Très beau ballet le Lac des cygnes, que j'ai eu l'honneur et la joie de regarder 2 fois. 👏👏
This is not Swan Lake. But it is The Dying Swan, Camille Saint-Saens.
Perfection
Beautiful👏👏👏👏
Camille Saint-Saens - Carnival of the Animals, The Swan (the Dying Swan) - Ekaterina Kondaurova
Sacred music and dance - Thank you to the genius composers and performers!
Maravillosa 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
The most graceful and tender thing I’ve ever seen. Why are the Russians so much in a different league to the rest of us?
Stunningly gorgeous
Words to The Swan / I Wonder...
I don't know why life's been hard,
on me.
Was,
it some-thing that I said or I done?
I don't know what put me on,
this path.
I,
won-der why there nev-er was an-y love?
Why was ter-ror al-ways on,
my face?
Why could-n't I just play in,
the sun.
Why was my fa-,
ther al-ways,
mad.
Why did he take,
it out on,
me?
Why did'-nt neigh-bors ev-er,
step in?
When,
they could hear all the cries and the screams.
Why are these ques-tions still a part of me?
I won-der...
And pon-der if...
I'll,
ev-er,
know.
me gusta mucho mas el sonido de la viola que el del violin en esta pieza, felicidades, maravilloso!!!
I love the way she tries to fly
Pure beauty.
PERFECT!!!!
Omg I’m bawling 😭 ( in a good way, this is fricking Beautiful)

+Marcela castaño ok so it wasn't only me!!! you're right and this title is SO wrong, please correct it. i mean, it is REALLY wrong.
Idiot. We all know wha this piece is. Shut up.

Watch this and know how it's supposed to be done.
