Back here again. I love everything about this performance. The understatement, but so technically correct, the lack of pretension, the beautiful line of each, how they mirror their port de bras, head movements. The lovely use of hands by Fonteyn. How one is drawn into the performance, and feels part of the tragedy. Glorious.

Какое счастье что эти двое из разных миров встретились на этом свете!

Absolutely beautiful! Wish I could have been there.

Technique may have surpassed these 2 icons, but their artistry is still one to still be observed as this is the saddest goodbye of all Giselle ballets I have seen. As Giselle's spirit fades in the daylight he holds her and carries her away from her grave. Then, a one last effort to feel at least her hand...knowing that this is it....they must part.

Fonteyn was coached for Giselle by Tamara Karsavina and it shows. She's glorious in this role.

Here you know she forgives Albrecht, and still loves him, and he feels that forgiveness, and can go forward.

The first time I saw Nureyev and Fonteyn was in 1973 or 64. They were so incredible together.

Margot Fonteyn was an outstanding Giselle with a great virtuosity but more her interpretation of the character is 😍 stunning 🤩

Thank you so very much for this. It is a treasure for the soul. They are both incomparably beautiful.

thanks for this post, pure emotion and beauty of dance and music, this version of Giselle is one of the most dramatic we can find on YT, because ballet is not just technique but emotions and art !

They both were created for each other - no doubt about it. Thanks to this fortunate twist of fate, which brought these two outstanding dancers together - we could fall in love with them! They forever became for me the incomparable symbol of the perfect Artistry! Dame Fonteyn is an absolutely enchanting, genuine, like a fairy Giselle! And Nureyev! O, he wasn't just genius ballet dancer - he was also an outstanding actor! Look at his eyes. I see in them his suffering, full of grieve soul... His hypnotizing, artistic power was immense! Thank you for posting this my beloved Pas de Deux!

Such total abandon, completely! Two extraordinarily gifted artists, both with imaginations so very powerful, creating scenarios more real than anything in either of their lives individually. An amazing double fantasy fortified by their heroic artistry. I only saw them perform live once - via the Ed Sullivan Show. At the time, I was a young teen totally ignorant about ballet, however, there was something stunning about the two of them performing -that silently captivated. Very grateful much of their work is on film, for future generations to continue to discover, to be inspired and most amazed.🌹🌹🎆

The other wonderful Giselle is Eric Bruhn snd Carla fracci Bruhn was never a favourite of mine but seeing this changed my mind. His acting was great very natural, not what i expected and fracci was similar in her gentle beauty like Fonteyn. An area to be cherished. Its on video and is made in a studio its way over the top and a bit frustrating because of the naff effects but ignore that and just focus on them. Bruhn shines in this role.

So beautiful!!!
