- Find out more: www.roh.org.uk.... Beatriz Stix-Brunell and Fernando Montaño rehearse the Caterpillar scene from The Royal Ballet's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, as part of World Ballet Day 2017.
Christopher Wheeldon’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland burst onto the stage in 2011 in an explosion of colour, stage magic and inventive, sophisticated choreography. Joby Talbot’s score combines contemporary soundworlds with sweeping melodies that gesture to ballet scores of the 19th century. Bob Crowley’s wildly imaginative, eye-popping designs draw on everything from puppetry to projections to make Wonderland wonderfully real.
Alice encounters a cast of extraordinary and instantly recognizable characters, from the highly strung Queen of Hearts - who performs a hilarious send-up of The Sleeping Beauty’s famous Rose Adage - to a playing card corps de ballet, a sinuous caterpillar and a tap-dancing Mad Hatter. But the ballet does not avoid the darker undercurrents of Lewis Carroll’s story: a nightmarish kitchen, an eerily disembodied Cheshire Cat and the unhinged tea party are all here in vivid detail. The delicious result shows The Royal Ballet at its best, bringing together world-class dance with enchanting family entertainment.
Love how gentle and supportive he is being in his critiques. I've noticed that everyone at the Royal Opera house is this way, creates such an encouraging environment for the dancers!
It's great to watch how Christopher Saunders is so aware of every little detail, but at same time has the whole logistics, timing etc. on his mind, all at once, not missing anything and he is so very constructive and yet he is so kind in his critics, spicing it with humour. Not everyone has this ability and it's something incredible worthful for everyone working with or around. I think he creates a wonderful atmosphere to learn. No yelling, harsh words or insults, though hitting the nail on the head.
Sorry : watch; not wath. I hate typing on my phone. Sorry anyways.
ik whats his name they never put his name
Jolie Holiday The ones name who is correcting the dancers ? Christopher Saunders, I think..
the exact opposite of my dance company lmao
My dance teacher is very much like this. She has the whole show directed in her head, every detail and timing, but she's supportive and we can all laugh at our mistakes.
As an untrained eye, I’m thinking they’re just doing it perfectly every time😂
Lmao same
로라 [Laura] ikr
Yeah, we as general audience usually goes like "coooooool" 😅😅😅😅😅.
But it's always the coach who keeps pushing forward more beyond our expectations. Which is tough but worth it as lon as they don't hurt themselves 👏👏👏👏👏👏.
The male's masculine presence is absent and therefore the dance is absent.
He’s not a man he’s a caterpillar pay attention
“I’m going to be the mushroom. Say nothing, I know I look like one.” This director kills me. 😂
There is something about his movements, especially his legs ....He is moving so fluid and smooth, still so precisely and there's even more to it I can't grasp yet .....absolutely captivating.
Jane Doe X you should see the original, he's even smoother and entrancing
But then he blows it with a completely unmasculine stage presence.
@@gregj831he's a caterpillar my guy, it's not like he needs to show you "masculinity"
He's an amazing caterpillar and she's straight adorable as Alice!
This is an underrated comment
god i wish my coaches and instructors were as kind, positive, but constructive as he is
Ells bells you didn’t have kind instructors?
Yeah I do have one teacher like him though so that good.
@@tenacious-e3o The vast majority of ballet instructors can be very harsh
I had no idea that they have corrective rehearsals during performances. Wow, talk about adding on the pressure! I can imagine being on stage and cringing as you realize you've forgotten a crucial improvement! *Ugh* Some of the dancers are so young, but I guess their years of experience help them in the long run. Really nice performances.
You can see both dancers were exhausted yet extremely professional. The audience are not aware of the minutiae and as a performer you know it. Yet, it is the accumulated attention to detail that simply & unconsciously blows the audience way …they don’t know exactly why it’s brilliant, they just know. This is what it takes! 🔥✨
Here's some food for thought- Constant rehearsing is universal to the performing arts world. I sing in a college chorale, which means we sometimes team up with the opera troupe my university runs. We'll do rehearsals before every performance, and if they're spaced out, we continue normal dress rehearsals. The practicing and improving doesn't end until the final curtain falls, mon ami.
I’m in the nutcracker and we are getting feedback from everybody who is working on the show. It’s actually really helpful to know what you are doing wrong so that you can correct it for the next show.
It can be stressful, but it can also be really helpful. I don’t want to be five hours into a practice after two performances and find out I’ve been doing it wrong by accident
Yeah. I’ve been a dancer for 12 years and we always do this. It’s part of the process
I love how he narrates what they’re dancing 😂
marilyn this is how dance teachers help the dancers. In the beginning it’s like “step step turn jump!” but once we learn the choreography, they can direct the kinds of ‘textures’ to give to each move “smooth smooth pull and push!” and then we remember these things and it gives the dance much more feeling. When I’m dancing I can almost hear my teacher saying “plié, turn out, pull in, relève!”
Alma Najem hi 👋🏾
I’m amazed how ballet dancers memorize so much intricate choreography. I would only be able to memorize a few steps and that’s it.
Everyone is comparing Fernando to Eric unfavorably but I have to completely disagree! I prefer his interpretation. His movements are so precise and fluid. It's beautiful to watch. Love Beatriz too, she's so expressive!
MissHKeith Totally agree!!
He is somehow incredible smooth but very precise in his movements.
Things heating up in the ballet fandom
It sounds harsh but I like seeing professionals make mistakes in their lessons, because it makes me feel like I can do what they do too
big ups to the pianist my gosh he kills it
this is art, but also an amazing example of constructive criticism and teaching to adults - by recognising their skill and being encouraging but also clear with the feedback and kind. I have no idea about ballet, but I rewatch this to 1) enjoy the ballet but also 2) to just learn how to be a kind but firm yet respectful instructor. It's a very hard skill to learn and watching a few videos, Christopher is a master at it.
i think this guy would be a really good mad hatter as well
Well that depends if he is good a tap. Because Mad Hatter needs to be a really good tap dancer.
Marika Kutaladze really 🤔wow I just learned something new
The way Fernando moves kept my attention and interest into what/how he was going to express what the choreographer wanted. Very fluid in his movement. Wonderful follow through of his extensions and lines.
I love the tummy rub so much for some reason, lol
Me toooo!
Hungry caterpillar
Fernando is amazing! Colombian proud! Keep working like that~
Alice is such a fun ballet to watch, I love the caterpillar. He has such wonderful movement to play. this ballet has such great atmosphere to play in.
Of course Eric's Caterpillar was stunning, but I personally prefer Fernando's interpretation. His movements have more whimsical fluidity than Eric's, and I think he really captures the essence of the character. Amazing. This is just my opinion, I love every interpretation I've seen and the Caterpillar is my favourite in this ballet by far.
Also, such amazing critique. Just the right mix of gentle encouragement and strict direction. Everyone should be taught this way.
aight let's not forget christopher saunders is adding all the details to an already beautiful set of movements - what a team you guys got there!
Absolutely lovely dancing. I adore seeing each dancers slightly different take on each character, especially with this particular ballet, completely stunning💛
I love Beatrice's facial expressions! So fun and curious!
They are SO disciplined. I'd love to be that way.
I'm going to perform as the caterpillar this year! It's a totally different style than this but i'm still very excited haha
Good luck!!
Bambii Quo thank you! It went very well!
Can you give me advice for being Alice?
Me tooo
The dance master person knows exactly what he wants, it's great. He's like a film auteur but for dance.
What I like so much about this rehearsal is that the dancers are so professional in completely following the dance Masters instructions without any discussion. Their trust in his judgement is complete and the whole excercise is conducted with the performance in mind, to enhance this to perfection. Absolutely marvelous to watch, this is the result of years and years of discipline and training. The respect is mutual and joy unmistakable. Incredibly beautiful.
This looked so perfect in the performance that it never felt like they've had the need for rehearsals.
And of course they had to because it would be illogical that a big presentation like this one was made without any planning and entirely out of improvisement.
But seeing their preparations amazes me and makes me value their work even more than I already did by just watching the presentation alone. All of their practice hours have been totally worth it ;)
The way he uses his face. It's beautiful. I would love to see this in real life.
The Royal Ballet sell a dvd of this performance
Mom:Why were you up all night?
Me: Um it’s a long story
What a wonderful teacher who really understands how to get the best out of people. No divo/diva meltdowns - how refreshing 👍🏾👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌😊
anyone else who was waiting for him to do the worm after the 3 ripples?
danceballetacro me
haha yes
Big thanks to the royal ballet for sharing these great videos!!! Fernando and Beatriz you are the best!!!
The dancers are both so beautiful!
i would give anything to see this show! every single dancer is absolutely incredible, both principle and corp!
i love the choreography for this show so much. it’s so different
I still can't believe that I had the chance to rehearse and perform with Beatriz Stix-Brunell, Annette Buvoli and Leo Dixon in that very studio. Amazing. ❤
Floored by how analog the arts are! With all the tech out there today, they’re still using a real pianist and the director has to verbally coax the right performances out of him and the dancers. The performers, director, and music are being held in step only by the human desire to be on the same page. So cool!
I love the music for this scene!!
I’ve watched this like 20 times I love it so much. I don’t even dance but I wanna be like all of this 😍
Same here ❤️
Eric was amazing, but I actually think this guy is just as wonderful.
Amazing dancing aside, nice job camera people :)
I'm sad that Eric Underwood left. I never had chance to see him live doing this role.
Iiduli i feel the same. This is my favorite part in Alice, so I'm anxious to see a new face in the same role that was executed wonderfully by Underwood.
www.roh.org.uk/news/eric-underwood-has-decided-to-leave-the-royal-ballet
Eric Underwood said: ‘After 11 very successful years at the Royal Ballet I have decided to move on. I am hugely grateful for all I have learnt there and the amazing experiences I have had’.
Mio Mio remember that other dudes played this role in alternate casts it's just that Eric is the one we saw in the live broadcast
meowool of course, but every dancer has their own artistry that they integrate into the role, thus the comment
From Mr Underwood's IG feed, he's moved more fully into his modeling career. Hopefully, he will make guest appearances somewhere, and not stop dancing completely.
Fernando's thighs are a work of art in themselves!! 🦵🦵😍 I can't even do the Macarena so I can't really critique this performance however, to my highly untrained eyes, ballet seems to be some sort of sorcery! Lol.
Absolutely incredible! The movements are mesmerising, the attention to detail is impeccable and their talent, skill and dedication are clear for all to see. They're like flames dancing on a camp fire, hypnotising!
Respect and admiration from Scotland 🏴💙
Amazing piano interpretation of the original piece. Salute to the Pianist. Bravo!
I can't get enough of the music!!
this is awesome! been watching this on loop since world ballet day - i looked it up for past performances and found sarah lamb with eric underwood, but, in all honesty, in this particular part of the ballet (as I haven't watched the full thing), they're no match for beatriz and fernando - such lovely dancers
Seems like lots of hard work but still full of energy and gorgeous witty moves
Colombia presente representado por Fernando muy bien gran talento y estética aplausos a tu talento
Gotta love the performing arts, dance in particular- no other field involves every day being a non-stop performance review.
He's incredible! Great choreography Mr. Wheeldon!
Fascinating to watch. I'm a concert pianist that used to play for Ballets but I also studied ballet in my youth. Alice in Wonderland is my new favorite ballet. It was brilliant. Enjoying watching the rehearsal with a coach that is supportive and encouraging.
lots of love for Fernando from colombia💙😊
This is wonderful to see!!!! Why does ballet make me cry tears of joy. I really want to get back into ballet.
1:52 Best 10 seconds of criticism XD
Natascha Klein XD
He’s probably one of the only directors who doesn’t shout and give negatively sounding critiques aha
seeing this certainly adds a dimension to the performance
Love Fernando Montano in this. Would be great to see him showcased more at the RB. Beatriz is pure joy!
I saw this show and it was so amazing and the costumes was GORGEOUS, I always come back to watch the videos
That man is an amazing dancer.
This is actually my favourite part of the ballet. I love the caterpillar.
LOOOOVE Fernando!
He's Just AWESOME!!
He's dances this role so welll!
Love Him! ❤❤❤
my preschoolers appreciated your performance.
So much love to Fernando!!!!
I love the diversity shown in the cast. It's really refreshing!
here comes again diversity, it is not about skin color or from where.
all bout the TALENTS .got that?
@@calaf1816they are talking about it because a lot of times dancers get overlooked for talent and rejected for their skin color wasn’t till the 2000s when black dancers where allowed and seen heavily that’s why people are excited.
The commentary he has is everything for me
I do ballet too and last year we did an Alice in wonderland show and we used that SAME SONG FOR THE CATEPILAR DANCE 😆😂
this is so beautiful. I don't know anything about ballet, but wow... the story comes across and such talent, brilliant
This video would've been perfect. If it had included this scene from the show at the end.
I am auditioning for a community theater version of this, and I have 2 wishes:
1: I get in
2: The Director is just like hin
Best of luck!!!
lynx thanks! I will keep you updated!
ok gonna just put this out here, but like anyone else just mesmerized by his legs? like I can't stop watching and I don't even do ballet or dance anymore lol
Yes I feel like in ballet legs are the most interesting part lol
I'm still waiting for The Dreamers Ever Leave You rehearsal to be published in a separate video... :)
0:46 AMAZING
Me getting out of bed by the morning be like
This is that TRUST & being IN TUNED looks like. Dancing is spiritual. I love the space. Beautiful responsive dancers- coach & DISCIPLINE..BRILLIANT. I see myself... love the energy. Stay healthy & moving. Thank you for sharing. Blessings . Tree- nj-usa.
I kinda almost prefer watching rehearsals than performances lol
Wow I could watch these two dance forever
This is my favorite performance ever... I love it
I wish I could see all the show
Wow! I've enjoyed listening to the coreographer indications.
... the ability to construct criticisms without shrinking in defense and rather instantaneously... "ON a DIME" adjust/ shift/ GROW & win to become better. They are beautiful. Just by watching the inter-actions reminds one of the human flow of life. Nice videod session. I'm inspired to joined a collaboration where the energy is riigghhtt.. to learn, create, independently & as a team to bring forth wholesome feeling & hopefully, an great impact. We all hv our handicaps. I SEE & LEARN GRACE in ACTION as the players & band do their parts. May I also mention ... away with ego as one gets in sync to DO THA DANCE. ... LIVING. 🎈As a dancer, while rehearsal could be sacrificing, the excitement of accomplishing and presenting the whole DANCE IN COSTUMES, was & is indeed, my favorite past of dancing. BLESSINGS to these wonderful dancers & crew. Tree-nj-usa
I just love a quality video with an intro - butt - like dat👏
Шедеврально, можно смотреть вечно!!!!Спасибо!!!
This makes me so happy and jealous that my thick wrestler-judo frame will never make these movements as wonderful as they do. I not will probably not be able to see it unless they make an international tour of it to California. I guess I will have to suffice with RUclips clips
ive watched this so many times just to hear him say "such fun!" toward the end
They are tough! I would have been crying.
Wow Montano is stunning and a very clever caterpillar. I look foward to seeing him on stage
It is very interesting to watch the rehearsals!:)))
Kudos to the pianist!
The first time i watched tge caterpillar scene i WAS BLOWN AWAY BEYOND THIS REALM amazing
Fernando is a star! Beatriz is the picture of beauty.
Completely mesmerised 💜 beautiful!!
One of my favourite pieces.
스토리가 명확해서 재밌다 이 공연 어디서 풀버전 못 보려나ㅠㅜ
I so want to see this in full production
Brandy M its posted its so amazing
No puedo creer que conocí a Fernando Montaño en el Addicted2Dance de este año! Él es un bailarín impresionante y muy agradable
does anyone know where can i watch online royal ‘s ballet? do they have a streaming service/DVDs like the MET?
Not a word for Beatriz, underrated , now she’s gone ….
😞
I need a score for the piano part omg why is there no trace of it on the internet
Fernando is simply amazing.
Can somebody tell me where I can find the piano sheets for this?
I think you might be able to find it on the website or somewhere online
Ohhh... qué belloooos!!
