Variations in “Paquita”- Choreographed by Marius Petipa
Ойын-сауық
Paquita is a ballet in two acts and three scenes originally choreographed by Joseph Mazilier to music by Édouard Deldevez and Ludwig Minkus. Paul Foucher received royalties as librettist.
In 1847, Paquita was staged for the first time in Russia for the Imperial Ballet of St. Petersburg by Marius Petipa and Pierre-Frédéric Malavergne, being the first work ever staged by Petipa in Russia. In 1881, Petipa produced a revival of the ballet for which he added new pieces specially composed by Ludwig Minkus. This included the Paquita pas de trois for the first act and the Paquita grand pas classique and the Mazurka des enfants for the last act. Petipa's version of Paquita was retained in the repertory of the Mariinsky Theatre until 1926.
Petipa's 1881 additions for Paquita survived long after the full-length ballet left the stage. Today these pieces, particularly the Grand pas classique, are major cornerstones of the traditional classical ballet repertory and have been staged by ballet companies throughout the world.

The variation from “King Candaule” is my absolute favorite. Doesn't matter who performs it, I will always watch.
All wonderful. Ulyana gives me chills.
2:28 is my favorite variation of all time. it is so upbeat and fun to do. it looks beautiful and is short so it doesn’t take long to learn.

I’ve always danced the fourth variation (King Caudale). I’m a professional ballerina trained in Moscow. I love seeing all of them together. Of course I’ve performed some of the jumping variations (Lucien and Armida) too. I think Paquita is the ballet I’ve done the most - it’s great for galas and special performance🇧🇷🇵🇹🩰
Absolutely beautiful!
Elegant and beautiful!
Yekaterina Kondaurova in her variation. The gold standard in this variation. No one does it better. Her transition from a high a la seconde to a deep arabesque penchée is particularly delicious. Most ballerinas, even Russian ones, turn this relatively simple transition into a hydraulic nightmare.

In the 1991 film "Kirov Classics", Lubov Kunakova gives the best performance I have ever seen of this variation (Paquita is performed with Makhalina/Zelensky in the leads).

although not transitioning into a deep penchée, I feel like Amber Skaggs recently handled the transition really well and it looked pretty smooth with it not feeling like a “hydraulic press” (per your description, which actually sounds about right haha). kzread.info/dash/bejne/e5uemZqshaeecdo.html
Bravo bravo bravo bravo

The uploader made an error.....this is actually Ekaterina Vazem's variation, and is the original variation for the lead ballerina of the grand pas.
Всех узнала-все шикарные!
Isn’t Nadejda Gratcheva performing the Lucien’s variation?
15:35 “Variation from Armida” - is that Natalia Osipova? The quality of the video is bad but I see Natalia in her jumps and movements. Is that her?
does the third one remind anyone else of queen of the dryads ? 😅
One of my favourites linda artistry and tecnique of russia
She is beautiful the ballerina 👏👏👏👏

Paquita has a history of using famous ballerinas who would then want to do a variation they preferred. In the research I’ve done, there are at least 23 that have been used in the past. Different composers, different ballets - it’s quite a convoluted mess in some instances.

As I've said in other threads, the Russians have heaps and heaps of this Petipa-Minkus stuff lying around, which they then interchange with licentious impunity.

@@avesraggiana “with licentious impunity” 😄 I also would rather like to find more consistency. They even use male variations, for instance from Coppelia (doesn’t even remotely sound like it would be performed during a wedding in Spain in a ballet story), and I feel like they would put the cupid variation from DQ just anywhere. That’s so annoying.

The Don Quixote variation is not actually from Don Quixote at all. It's actually from Paquita itself, Gorsky just interpolated it into Act 2 of Don Quixote for Cupid/Amour and it stuck ever since. Although Marius Petipa just made the famous ballerinas of the day choose their own favorite variations to dance in the Grand Pas. It's sort of a concert collab. The variations may vary in each staging but over time, ballet companies have developed their very own "canons" in what variations to dance. You could just get random variations, slap in the Entree, Adagio, Pas de Trois and Coda and you still have the Paquita Grand Pas.
