    Когда она вращается, глаз переходит от прекрасного лица к обольстительному заду и обратно. Балетное мастерство подчинено у Плисецкой в ее ролях искусству обольщения. У большинства других балерин на первом месте школа, выучка, но не провокация.

    I know Mr. B. did not particularly like the German films of his ballets, but I think this one is very beautiful. The lighting emphasizes the spirituality of the piece especially. Surprised that Mazzo did not "let down her hair." I wonder when that touch was added.

    Este video corresponde a una grabación que hizo la televisión cubana en la puesta completa del lago de los cisnes está vez en tres actos y un epílogo la versión anterior era de Mary Skyping pero esta versión era completa de Alicia . En esta ocasión fue para un Festival de Ballet donde se estrenaron Mirta Plá y Josefina Mendes en el rol titular. Mirta Plá hizo una sola función de su estreno pues estaba embarazada y las funciones restantes todas las fueron entre Alicia y Josefina alternándose en el rol titular

    I also saw Lavery dance with Farrell at NYCB as a last-minute replacement for an injured Ib Anderson in MOZARTIANA, & he was *brilliant* that night...nervousness may have given him an extra edge. And that's a HARD male part for someone w/ legs as long as his were. I don't know if he ever danced it again after that night.

  • @running179

    Also, as much as I liked Merrill Ashley's dancing, I saw her in CHACONNE after Suzanne retired & thought she was a very wrong choice...she didn't have at all the abandon that Suzanne brought to this role. I just don't think NYCB is going to see an artist like Farrell again soon. They don't come along like that much, with that level of soul & daring. Her dancing changed my life!

    JC, you may have seen my remarks on the other link of this perf that you posted. I said there, in short, that I LOVE this perf, & while I think Sean's beats aren't as clean/sharp as Martins's, his dancing is so much more expressive & musical, & his longer legs look lovely here even w/ his not-great feet. Suzanne as always is just gorgeous, & riskily off-balance here. My ques to you is: how did she always manage to dance these hard ballets & keep her mouth closed? That's HARD!

    so great to see the slight differences in her performance and the one with Martins. you really see how she made each performance so authentically in the moment. a grand artist like Callas
