      M Jones Yes she was. I am fortunate to have seen her twice, in 1966 and again in 1990. Maya Plisetskaya was one of the greatest. Rest in peace.

    The drama is incredible. She is the most alluring Odile I have ever seen -- she pulls him to follow her through sheer force of will. It's extraordinary -- and at age 48! Just incredible! In addition to which -- that center. She hit attitude and BAM -- she doesn't move. Does a pirouette and BAM - she sticks it. I've noticed this in other performances I've seen of her. She is unique among ballerinas - something innately dramatic and extraordinary about her work.

I'm totaly stunned, I've just watched odette and now odiele and the contrast in how they move is enormous, a whole diferent kind of energy to it, that woman is magnificent!

    She embodies Odile so well. There's an unapologetic ruthlessness and boldness to her movements that's extremely unique. Maya Plisetskaya's Odile is gritty, animalistic, fierce, dramatic, and glamorous. She completely pulls you in. All other versions of Odiles I've seen so far seem soft and delicate in comparison. I don't think any other dancer can pull off this kind of "harshness" in this role and still make it look so magnetic & elegant. Her stage presence is simply incandescent.
    3:30 - 3:39 Her Odette is so fragile, pure, and vulnerable.

    I have met Maya twice in the recent years, once in Germany and once in Armenia attending concerts of compositions by her husband. I felt so humbled and so honored to be in her presence. Over eighty years old but still stunningly gorgeous and a lovely person. One of the strongest presences I had ever felt in my life! Although completely different dancers, for me Plisetskaya and Ulanova are the best dancing artists who ever lived, their artistry (I don't mean technique) unmatched to this day!

    Even though technique from the waist down has evolved significantly, my god ain’t nobody got those arms. She will forever be the gold standard for the Port des bras of this ballet . She has the most legendary swan arms of legendary swan arms. And I feel bad for the man in this video because he is actually quite wonderful and we are all drooling over Maya but my goodness he is also quite technically proficient for 45 years ago. He actually has quite a modern aesthetic for a male ballet dancer considering it was 1978. Lovely lovely lines and gorgeous feet on him. Beautiful musculature and sound clean technique.

  • @brendadufaur37
    @brendadufaur37 Год назад +14

    The most amazing thing about this performance is the way she displays a story with she and Sigfreid. You don't see that to that level any more. The way she looks at him and conveys with her body the toying with him, the authoritative deception, the way they both look at each other and drawing back and then forward, that power dynamic. It's so beautiful. The great Plisetskaya. Kovtun did some wonderful steps.

    That's mystery of Maya. At the age when most dancers are getting ready for retirement she came into her absolute best form. She is just scorching the stage as Odile here. I still want to see anything close to what she did in that role. There are so many talented dancers, the technique is uniformly so incredibly high these days across the board and yet... That amalgam she possessed of exquisite musicality, elegant sensuality and expressiveness of the utmost sophistication I just have yet to see. Call me names but she is irreplaceable.

Watching it, and fully grasping what it was at the exact same moment, well... ...it's the very meaning of epiphany. You only 'see' deeply, afterwards. You're enjoying too much at the time, in the moments.

    Гениально! Современные примы технически совершенны, но уровня Плисецкой и Улановой не достигла ни одна. Современные балерины - спортсменки, чемпионки, заводные куклы, но не художники, не актрисы.

    xxxFreyjaxxx, I immensely enjoyed watching this and I am sure I will watch again and again. The dance is exquisite AND they got the characters absolutely as I imagine them. Odette is evil and cunning and smart at it, she is weaving her web and closing in in a precise calculated way, all the while being incredibly beautiful. And Siegfried is completely fooled and dances through his exuberant first love joy. Wonderful... I also really like the steps Maya dances instead of the traditional fouettes: they are even more convincing for what she plots :-) absolutely bewitching :-) The scenery appeals to me too, very unusual: it reminds me of the paved area in front of Notre Dame de Paris, France. I guess it could be other cathedrals in Europe, but I am just more familiar with this one - from the towers design though is not Notre Dame de Paris - Sorry for the long chat, I got carried away... Thanks again for posting this !!!

    Many ballerinas play the role as if Odile were merely the pawn of the man who controls her, her power only borrowed and completely under his direction. Plisetskaya, though, is a dominating Odile-she will place herself face down on the ground as if to submit, but it’s only to draw him further in where she can claim his power for her own. Lovely powerful interpretation.

    This lady was incredible and the gentleman is also, she had a carriage that was beautiful not skeletal like zackarova. I love a ballerina that looks healthy and femenine not skeletal for me it takes away from the performance, this lady is perfect, i can see why Zakarova copied her.

    RIP Maya, the idol of Gelsey Kirkland and many others of her generation. This is Odile the sorceress, the one I want to see for every Coda, but never do. Maya is the archetype for the achievement of playing such contrasting characters as Odette/Odile. I was just *sold* by the end (and Kovtun was brilliant, too), no 32 fourettes needed (WHY has that become the overarching issue in Swan Lake? There is a whole ballet!). I think Maya stopped doing them in rebellion to just such nonsense and I think this is more effective than watching someone get through all 32 or not. I always think they have used special effects on her arms, but no, they were her beautiful ribbons...

    I wish ballet was still like this, I have watched this countless times it never gets old. Now I feel like ballet is too close to gymnastics and not artistic anymore. I met Maya when she was in her 70s, let me tell u blown away by how beautiful she is in person

    In Russia and in times past, Odile was not depicted as a black swan, but as a black bird of some kind. Much like Rothbart was depicted as a bird of prey, like an Owl. It was not until the West started depicting Odile as a black swan that the Russians followed suite, and started depicting Odile as a black swan. A rare occasion of the Russians agreeing that the West had a better idea than theirs. The point being, that the head-dress she is using, is more or less like the crest of a bird.

    • @kabardinka1
      @kabardinka1 6 лет назад +3

      Maya was never heavy in any sense of the word. But her body, in today's ballet world, would not be considered 'ideal.' She didn't have long legs, she had a somewhat long torso and fairly full sized hips (which is one of the reasons she could dance with such womanly power and strong jumps). As with most Bolshoi dancers who came up in the 40s-50s, she had muscular legs. Russian ballet bodies started changing with Maximova, Nadezhda Palova, and Galina Mezentseva until you have the super skinny Russian dancers around today. Not an improvement, IMO.
