@@annelisemarier2588 Before you post another response deliberately misconstruing mine. Take time to read the original post and then my response. Most recently, note that I have not quantified my positive or negative responses. That's your own head running away with you once again.
I was taken by surprise when I saw ballet the first time. As I watched I was overwhelmed by the grace and the amazing performance. Not one word was spoken yet there was so many things that was said....
Music is my first language, English is my second 👏🏾 Every time I hear this song it gives me chills. I thank God for the ears to hear such beautiful melodies! From the birds singing every morning to rain hitting the pavement there is music everywhere. Ballet 🩰 has been a favorite of mine since my first play in elementary. Opera, symphonies, drill teams, battle of the bands, jazz, country, hip hop, R&B, classical, brass, string, piano 🎹, poetry, cultural/native dance, and nature/God’s music 🎶....I love it all 🥰
misty has been and will always be an inspiration to me. she doesn’t have to be the best principal ballerina to have ever touched a stage but shes proof that girls who look like us can do anything we put our minds to! not for anyone else but ourselves too
@@adrianaclark8498 I agree. Just the other day I watched Allegretto in Orlando ballet co. with a black young girl and she was totally naturally effortless joyfull born ballerina and so light.And the difference with Misty came into my mind.
It’s not a victim card when people need advocates… I read something from the Royal ballet director that said he wasn’t willing to break up a line of white in Swan lake… It’s really ridiculous and ballet needs more beautiful dancers if color regardless if the current dancers don’t say anything… Ballets also need to be more culturally sensitive in general and the San Francisco ballet’s Nutcracker proves this can be seamless… so happy for all these beautiful people adding to the beauty of ballet… ❤
Misty makes every movement so graceful, she is an amazing ballerina, she is my inspiration and seeing her dance makes me work harder to achieve my goal as a ballerina❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This makes me cry tears of joy to see another brown skinned goddess dance ballet! Growing up I was told I’d never be able to because I didn’t fit the bill but this has given me hope! ❤
dreams can come true, as long as you believe in yourself, & work hard! like my ballet teacher says, "even if some days you feel like you aren't good enough, just give your absolute best that you can give"!! you got this honey ❤❤
I Love Swan Lake and thought at last i had the chance to see it in person but it was cancelled due to Covid until next year, hope i get to see it then, love the ballet and think the dancers are superb.x Anne.
I look up to Misty Copeland so much I wish to be a broadway star and dance like this one day too any day I feel like I’m a bad dancer I watch her and it lifts my spirit so much she inspires me to practice 😊
My parents took me to see Eric Bruhn in Copelia when I bwas 5. I saw Nureyev and Fonteyn in 63 and Barishnikov in the 70’s. If I could see Polunin, I would die a happy woman
@@Astrid-jt8cd then get off the internet if you “sick” of people like me. I’m gonna say the truth and real because there isn’t anything wrong with admitting she’s an amazing Black Ballerina and by you trying to take that away by saying she’s not black or white but yet she’s a beautiful ballerina is ignorant. Because if you heard any black dancer stories you would know it’s not easy getting to misty level as a black woman.
I didn't say yet. You are insinuating that I am saying she is a great dancer in spite of her color. How dare you. As a matter of fact I think she is probably the most beautiful dancer I ever saw. The way she moves is pure poetry and the contrast of the white ballerina outfit against her black skin is the most beautiful thing I have seen. So how dare you. I think she is the greatest ballerina@@BriniqueBeauty
Misty is my favorite ballerina and I think her darker skin contrasted with the white ballet outfit is absolutely stunning. She is a gift from god and let's look at her genius and ballet beauty and nothing else
All the motions are there but the swan part is missing. I don’t think Swan Lake yet suits her. She seems intimidated by this repertoire and is still focused on the steps/positions rather than the lyricism.
Yes, gnomatic reverie, this is not a role for her she is not a swan type, there is not the light fluidity and grace light body of someone like Svetlana Zhakarova. She is more suited for an athletic role or a gymnast.
@@flonoiisana4647 yes I also see it the same way like you do This is not a delicate, vulnerable graceful swan with the lightness,fluidity vulnerability like for example so moving born effortless ballerina SvetlanaZhakarova
I’m no big fan of ballet, and I don’t know the first thing about,but I’ve compared this to a few other dancers doing the same piece after seeing how divided people are in the comments. I have to agree with those who do not like this version. I don’t think she has the same grace and talent as the other young ladies I saw.
She has such beautiful lines and grace!! I absolutely love her! 😍😍😍 I did ballet up until I was 16, and I wish I could have done it longer like Misty. I’ve always been a ballet fan though! She’s definitely one of my favorite ballet dancers 😍.
@@mariannesouza8326 sadly no, i became a chef because I thought it would be more sustainable. I have an oboe but am too embarrassed to play it. I don't sound like i used too! And the Loree i had was just amazing.....it really made a difference
I danced,my daughters danced I have been part of Ballet since I was a child in Cuba so believe when I say that this lady dance but, she is not a Ballet Dancer! which it’s something totally different. It is sad to think that she has been given the rank of “Principal Dancer” when I am sure other dancer were a lot more prepared for such rank.
I’m sorry you feel so strongly about someone else’s career. I don’t think everyone is blind or stupid by having ranked her that way. Maybe times are changing, maybe there’s a bit of envy on your part or a bit of both. I just had to respond as I grew up surrounded by Cubans and for some nothing is as good as what they can do. A sense of grandiosity runs in their veins. Sadly all that talent and knowledge couldn’t save their Island.
Well everyone has the right to evaluate anyone’s technique. As someone who was a professional dancer and teacher...and an American not Cuban which shouldn’t mean anything? she is simply not ready for this rank as principal. It is a technical thing. Not a personal thing. I do however think it’s sad that people of color are so rarely given their due reward for hard work in the ballet world...then Misty gets this rank clearly for other reasons besides her technique. There’s a real lack of inclusion for those who can truly handle something like a principal rank.
Karvel is right. And all of you who disagree with her assessment calm down and accept other ppl opinion. Stop throwing race around. Misty is NOT principal dancer. I am sure there are other 100x better than her. Telling the truth does not make one a bitter person...use your words correctly!!!!
Carrément pas un cygne... pas faite pour le classique . Un répertoire plus contemporain lui irait à merveille. Le problème du classique, c’est que la technique ne pardonne pas. La sienne est ... perfectible . Une sympathique artiste , une femme forte et courageuse mais elle ne donne pas le meilleur d’elle même dans ce répertoire .
Mais faut pas dire ça aux Américaines.... On est tout de suite traitées de racistes ! On a voulu faire sensation avec Misty et la propulser là où elle ne devrait pas être.
Oui Valerie, c'est pas une Cygne, elle est faite pour une gymnaste.le Francais n'est pas ma langue. La meilleure , Ideal Odette est Svetlana Zhakarova pour moi.
Forgive my reply in English. You are right. She is not right for the role. Much of the joy in watching a ballet like Swan Lake is marveling at the magnificent lead dancer so swan-like in her movements. Misty C is lovely, but not in this role. One need only watch this alongside many other versions to see the difference.

Буду писать на русском так как если напишу на английском меня заклеймят как расистку, болишеймингом и другими любимыми американцами словами😂но русский балет и русские балерины самые лучшие - лёгкость , изящество и грация во всем
Наши пока держатся, но тоже не все радужно в русском балете. Американцы хороши в модерновых постановках, вот туда ей и дорога, а не лебедя изображать в классике. Но такую попробуй тронь, вой будет на весь континент. Она даже Большой театр умудрилась в расизме обвинить и с ее подачи в сети затравили русских балерин, которые танцевали в Баядерке. Постановке, которая и до Мисти шла, и после нее будет, когда о ней самой забудут сто раз.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MISTY COPELAND AND THE NUTCRACKER SUITE!!!!! THIS VID HOWEVER WAS NOT A GOOD VIEWING FOR ME AS IT KEPT GOING IN SLOW OFF MOVEMENTS/MUSIC!!!! 😷🙌🌹🌹🌹
@@rossto862 what a rude comment . How are you going to say something so negative to someone that has a favorite dancer ? It’s all subjective . Try a little positivity in your life .
I also think she is a strong woman, underwent injuries, pushed hard, kept on going, got the publicity as the first woman of color in a major Theatre, ABT, but in the wrong profession.she would be possibly great as a gymnast. She is not a born ballerina like Zhakarova, Osipova, Kaptsova, those are Swans, etc. you either are it or not. And she is not,she probably has to work twice as hard.
@@karennoble4957 Probably because you've never seen a ballerina like her. I guarantee you she's upped the amount of people who care about ballet as well.
But we shouldn’t be downgrading ballet to appeal to a wider audience. In truth, Misty is an incredible athlete, but she is not a great dancer. Her promotion was a publicity stunt.
Can the replies just stop? Never compare ballerinas. Everyone dances differently, and that’s what’s so beautiful about ballet. If you expect everyone to dance as beautifully as Svetlana Zhakarova, she wouldn’t be a unique ballet dancer anymore. And that’s what’s special about ballet, the uniqueness of everyone’s dancing.
Are we watching the same dancer? Because I feel so much feelings in her dancing. I recommend watching her in Romeo and Juliet, she does a phenomenal job portraying the feelings there.
@@edfilchev5202 Ah yes. I was just reading about her. I feel sorry for the male dancers who have to partner with her. Hasn’t she injured at least one of them?
@@user-ht7vh2xz1c and this term "reverse racism" indeed exists, take a minute to look at the internet before talking bullshits please, it's a favor you do to society
I agree! I am also black... So my comments is not based on her skin colour or ethnic. I do support anybody regardless of skin color when it comes to dancing as I am a very passionate dancer myself ... I think she should focus mainly on contemporary ballet, she is far better at it... Classical ballet is just not for her... Everybody are differents and have different natural talents. Surely she is talented but not in CLASSICAL BALLET. it's just not for her. Hope that one day she humbly, finally realised that fact before she retires...
Она Волочкова номер два) Только той партии давали за деньги "папика", а этой за цвет кожи. Сделали из неё бренд "Первая чёрная прима в ABT", была бы белая, танцевала бы третью лебедь в пятом ряду всю жизнь. Но попробуйте объяснить это американцам (я пыталась!), сразу обвиняют в расизме...
Извините, но вы, наверное, не видели ведущих балерин Мариинского театра. Вот где гренадеры! Нам бы такую Мисти, а то партнёры ростом 186 смотрятся как маленькие, хрупкие мальчики!
@@anastasiya5781 I’m American and you must have been talking to black Americans. I think that honest white or any other color American would readily admit that Misty is a poor ballerina. Is she even good enough for the corps? My eyes hurt after watching her.
Among a thousand one things this Covid killer virus was good to show us, guys, what a huge emptiness you leave behind, we could die of feeling like our heads blowing up with no theater performances, thanks God we are lucky survivors, Glory the Lord hoping to admire you as soon as possible
@@anastasiya5781 Я канадец. Я вообще не считаю ее изящной. Я не люблю смотреть Мисти Коупленд. Думаю, мы хвалим ее, потому что у нее есть сказочная история: ее усыновила семья, которая позже узнала, что у нее есть талант к балету. Я нахожу ее тяжелой, когда она танцует. Похоже на спорт. Никаких танцев. И да здравствует гугл переводчик! Ржу не могу
this is not about hating. This is just plain truth. There are highly knowledgeable people about this beautiful art who with their knowledge help new dancers or educate the not dancers. I think she would have been a good, even excellent gymnast.
@Laura Streeter you really have a problem with this woman. I’ve been reading and you’re under almost every comment going off about something. Heres a hard truth, you’re just being a flat out hater! You think she’s terrible but guess what she’s doing what you will never be able to do and if you have done it, you won’t do it again. She’s living her dream while you are just being a flat out hater on RUclips. Her technique is better than yours, she’s lighter than you, she’s a better dancer than you, and more successful than you, she has inspired many black girls which is more than you’ve inspired, she doesn’t have to sit on RUclips stalking comments about you because 1. You will never be as good as her and 2. Your level of talent is nonexistent compared to hers. Do better!
@Julia Mimi Are you saying we are snobbish for having standards? Would you rather we degenerated into a cult of mediocrity for the sake of political correctness? That'd be an insult to talented, hardworking dancers everywhere, black or white.
Oh yeah. She's so close to the audience, that's why. In ballets in a theater the dancers are father away from the audience and often have bigger/louder orchestras, that's why you don't hear them.
Misty Copland-is not the best dancer. In the worst theatres in London,Paris and Moscow we can find better ballerinas than she is. Strong,heavy,not plastic. She could be good fitness instructor.
Como es posible que ABT, después de Baryshnikov, Makarova, Kirkland, Herrera y pare contar pongan Misty Copeland como principal dancer y darle el rol de Odette., que envés de un cisne parece un pato. Se ve pesada y sin gracia., prácticamente no entra en el personaje.
Porque es la que más entradas vende. Cuando canceló por lesión, la gente se levantó y se retiró de la sala, quedó sólo un tercio del público para ver la función de su reemplazante. Es una celebrity, y la compañía necesita vender entradas y la publicidad que atrae Copeland es asombrosa. Es un fenómeno de marketing...La calidad de la danza... no le importa a casi nadie.
It’s because of social engineering which really picked up in 2020 with the fake, planned by the cabal B l m movement. They have been purposefully trying to divide Americans by causing strife between the races. They’re using this Misty as part of their project.
I am so grateful for these videos...severely disabled and will never see in person. To see this in theatre would be very special...

@@rossto862 what a rude comment . How are you going to say something so negative to someone that has a favorite dancer ? It’s all subjective . Try a little positivity in your life .
@@rossto862 how true, Ross.i think the best, ideal Odette is the great Svetlana Zhakarova.
@@ocky88 She’s bad. Just face it. It’s not even a matter of opinion. It’s a fact.
Awesome
4:00 - 4:30 or 4:02-4:32
Bravo🤝🏽
Tutti esperti di Danza qui a quanto vedo.... 😅
I know she is real warrior and very strong woman, but this is not lake swan ballet
I also think she is a strong woman, underwent injuries, pushed hard, kept on going, got the publicity as the first woman of color in a major Theatre, ABT, but in the wrong profession.she would be possibly great as a gymnast. She is not a born ballerina like Zhakarova, Osipova, Kaptsova, those are Swans, etc.
you either are it or not. And she is not,she probably has to work twice as hard.
@@karennoble4957 Probably because you've never seen a ballerina like her. I guarantee you she's upped the amount of people who care about ballet as well.
@@karennoble4957 "Karen"
But we shouldn’t be downgrading ballet to appeal to a wider audience. In truth, Misty is an incredible athlete, but she is not a great dancer. Her promotion was a publicity stunt.
@@fuchsiaswing8545 stay pressed 😌
Who is the principal oboe?
she dances so beautifully and gracefully
Okay fair enough. Ypu are right
¡Hermoso! La mejor bailarina de este mundo...
She makes it look so easy
She’s stunning💛💛💛
Ohhh my …..so stunningly graceful Misty! Almost takes your breath away so beautiful!!!
Justine, just for comparison, see Svetlana Zhakarova.
Please watch Svetlana Zacharova and you’ll see truly stunning and graceful. She somehow doesn’t even look human. She’s divine perfection.
Can the replies just stop? Never compare ballerinas. Everyone dances differently, and that’s what’s so beautiful about ballet.
If you expect everyone to dance as beautifully as Svetlana Zhakarova, she wouldn’t be a unique ballet dancer anymore. And that’s what’s special about ballet, the uniqueness of everyone’s dancing.

@@christar9527why are you under every comment bringing this lady up just so you can hate on misty
What’s the second song called? I really like the part that starts at 4:24
Odette solo from swan lake
beautiful!
2:41 Misty is a Queen, so beautiful and inspirational
She's an excellent dancer, strong and with elegant hands and feet.
is she a swan or a duck?
@Herbie Shevers defend an awful ballerina on Internet is more pathetic 😂
No feeling in her dancing so many other more deserving talented black dancers.
😮
Are we watching the same dancer? Because I feel so much feelings in her dancing. I recommend watching her in Romeo and Juliet, she does a phenomenal job portraying the feelings there.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I absolutely love misty!
Gosh, I would not like to have to conduct a ballet without being able to see the dancer...
brava! beautiful!
Princess Melissa -- I agree. Her arms seem almost disjointed. However her leg strength and flexibility is amazing.
From the moment i noticed her hands..... all i could see was her obvious palm.
I havent seens such hands from ballet
I know, right?
Брррррррррррррррррррррр
Как для районного дома культуры : очень неплохо!
Чернокожий вариант Волочковой 🤣🤣🤣
@@edfilchev5202 Ah yes. I was just reading about her. I feel sorry for the male dancers who have to partner with her. Hasn’t she injured at least one of them?
Listen I'm a person of color. So you can't say I'm racist. This is technically awful.
People of color is racist as well (to "white people" and to their own kind...), some are more than the "white people" btw
Mar Ordaz is this a joke? Racism is prejudice against another race. Any person of any race can be a racist, and black people aren’t an exception.
@@user-ht7vh2xz1c Search the definition of racism please you smart one
@@user-ht7vh2xz1c and this term "reverse racism" indeed exists, take a minute to look at the internet before talking bullshits please, it's a favor you do to society
I agree! I am also black... So my comments is not based on her skin colour or ethnic. I do support anybody regardless of skin color when it comes to dancing as I am a very passionate dancer myself ...
I think she should focus mainly on contemporary ballet, she is far better at it... Classical ballet is just not for her... Everybody are differents and have different natural talents. Surely she is talented but not in CLASSICAL BALLET. it's just not for her. Hope that one day she humbly, finally realised that fact before she retires...
Oh my, what a beautiful dancer she is, and what a glorious Odette she makes.
The microphones even got the dancer's footsteps. 😄
LOL that was kind of annoying, I wasn't use to hearing that from watching these videos.
Извините, это гренадер. Она спортсменка, но не артистка. Ни легкости, ни прыжка, только рельефные мышцы как у фитоняшки.
Она Волочкова номер два) Только той партии давали за деньги "папика", а этой за цвет кожи. Сделали из неё бренд "Первая чёрная прима в ABT", была бы белая, танцевала бы третью лебедь в пятом ряду всю жизнь. Но попробуйте объяснить это американцам (я пыталась!), сразу обвиняют в расизме...
Извините, но вы, наверное, не видели ведущих балерин Мариинского театра. Вот где гренадеры! Нам бы такую Мисти, а то партнёры ростом 186 смотрятся как маленькие, хрупкие мальчики!
@@anastasiya5781 I’m American and you must have been talking to black Americans. I think that honest white or any other color American would readily admit that Misty is a poor ballerina. Is she even good enough for the corps? My eyes hurt after watching her.
@@anastasiya5781so bc she’s black she gets privilege?
I always like a lot to look at beauty..
Among a thousand one things this Covid killer virus was good to show us, guys, what a huge emptiness you leave behind, we could die of feeling like our heads blowing up with no theater performances, thanks God we are lucky survivors, Glory the Lord hoping to admire you as soon as possible
На это смотреть невозможно (((
Волочкова номер два, ага?) Но попробуйте объяснить это американцам...
@@anastasiya5781 Я канадец. Я вообще не считаю ее изящной. Я не люблю смотреть Мисти Коупленд. Думаю, мы хвалим ее, потому что у нее есть сказочная история: ее усыновила семья, которая позже узнала, что у нее есть талант к балету. Я нахожу ее тяжелой, когда она танцует. Похоже на спорт. Никаких танцев. И да здравствует гугл переводчик! Ржу не могу
@@anastasiya5781 вот тоже о Волочковой подумала...
Then don’t look
No one is hating; her technique is poor it’s the truth. Her alignment and arms are poor. This is just cringe wtf.
hater
this is not about hating.
This is just plain truth.
There are highly knowledgeable people about this beautiful art who with their knowledge help new dancers or educate the not dancers.
I think she would have been a good, even excellent gymnast.
@Laura Streeter you really have a problem with this woman. I’ve been reading and you’re under almost every comment going off about something. Heres a hard truth, you’re just being a flat out hater! You think she’s terrible but guess what she’s doing what you will never be able to do and if you have done it, you won’t do it again. She’s living her dream while you are just being a flat out hater on RUclips. Her technique is better than yours, she’s lighter than you, she’s a better dancer than you, and more successful than you, she has inspired many black girls which is more than you’ve inspired, she doesn’t have to sit on RUclips stalking comments about you because 1. You will never be as good as her and 2. Your level of talent is nonexistent compared to hers. Do better!
@Julia Mimi Are you saying we are snobbish for having standards? Would you rather we degenerated into a cult of mediocrity for the sake of political correctness? That'd be an insult to talented, hardworking dancers everywhere, black or white.
@@noblesetsentimentales Would rather see this woman dancing swan lake than a male in girl's sports or bathroom
Misty Copeland is magnificent!
If i can't be on the stage dancing can I at least be in the orchestra 😭
Peace making. #withlove
I’m no ballet connoisseur, but are we supposed to hear her feet on the floor like that?
Eleonore Bon; yes if you actually sit in the audience. And whelp sound mechanics of the space influences if one hears or not
You hear feet like crazy if you see ballet live or witness a class or rehearsal. Please don't blame this on the dancer
obi2020 • I’ve been to quite a few ballets before (even though I’m not a connoisseur) and I’ve never heard it like that.
Oh yeah. She's so close to the audience, that's why. In ballets in a theater the dancers are father away from the audience and often have bigger/louder orchestras, that's why you don't hear them.
Not her fault, it's bad microphone placement
Misty Copland-is not the best dancer. In the worst theatres in London,Paris and Moscow we can find better ballerinas than she is. Strong,heavy,not plastic. She could be good fitness instructor.
Right you are.
All ballerinas are beautiful.
Stuning !!!... Bravo.
Is it the first time you have been watching ballet?😂
Oh my...
Это пародия? Ну не может же всерьез лебедем это быть. А где весь спектакль? Принц там по-любому Кличко
Hands are a little sloppy
Como es posible que ABT, después de Baryshnikov, Makarova, Kirkland, Herrera y pare contar pongan Misty Copeland como principal dancer y darle el rol de Odette., que envés de un cisne parece un pato. Se ve pesada y sin gracia., prácticamente no entra en el personaje.
Porque es la que más entradas vende. Cuando canceló por lesión, la gente se levantó y se retiró de la sala, quedó sólo un tercio del público para ver la función de su reemplazante. Es una celebrity, y la compañía necesita vender entradas y la publicidad que atrae Copeland es asombrosa. Es un fenómeno de marketing...La calidad de la danza... no le importa a casi nadie.
It’s because of social engineering which really picked up in 2020 with the fake, planned by the cabal B l m movement. They have been purposefully trying to divide Americans by causing strife between the races. They’re using this Misty as part of their project.
