Is it from Riccardo Drigo’s Harlequinade? And extra variation for some ballerina post Premiere? I didn’t remember hearing it in Ratmansky’s production.
@@Grunyaprotazova It is not from "Harlequinade". This pizzicato comes from a 4-part suite by Drigo that was published in the 1910's simply as "Quatre airs de ballet". Drigo composed these 4 pieces as a unit to serve as a Grand pas of some sort for Alexander Shiryaev's revival of Lev Ivanov's "The Harlem Tulip" in, I believe, 1902, starring Vera Trefilova (I learned this from the splendid Igor Zapravdin ballet class CD's!) Drigo's music is absolutely beautiful, and he channels the spirit of Cesare Pugni in the gallop. "Quatre Airs de ballet" - 1. Romance 2. Valse bluette (Aside from the "Serenade" this is perhaps Drigo's most famous composition. The "Valse bluette" was originally orchestrated for full orchestra, but was later adapted for solo violin by the great violinist Leopold Auer into a famous repertory piece, and EVERY violinist on the planet knows it!) 3. Pizzicato (this is Khalfouni's solo at 20:10) 4. Galop-coda (today, this music is performed in a severely edited form as a female variation in the Soviet "La Fille mal gardée pas de deux". It can also turn up in the Soviet "Harlequinade pas de deux". These pas de deux are staples on the competition circuit)
@@mrlopez-pz7pu Thank you! So this is the female variation of Drigo’s Pas de Deux for The Harlem Tulip? For sure I know the male variation of this PDD is the now known as Ocean variation from “The Little Humpbacked Horse” Pas de Trois des Perles et Ocean.
@@Grunyaprotazova none of the music in "Ocean and Pearls" trio is from "Fille mal gardee"...I recall reading a recently written essay about this on Facebook from an author who shall remain nameless... I dont know where one would ever get a notion that anything in "Ocean and Pearls" trio was from "La Fille mal gardee". The "Ocean and Pearls" trio music was composed in 1901 for Gorsky's Moscow revival of "Humpbacked Horse" by the Bolshoi Theatre conductor Andrei Arends. Arends's music is clever in that it channels Drigo's style for the tunes while channeling Pugni for the style of orchestration. I was told once that "Ocean and Pearls" was from Drigo's score for Petipa's 1896 ballet "La Perle", but I later learned that this isn't true either.
The first scene is a kind of souvenirs Album of her great classic roles, Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, Giselle, la Sylphide. With her long and hyper musical arms and hands she captures the essence and the deep dimension of the beautiful music that Roland Petit used for this collage. I think this is the best part of the ballet. Dominique Khalfouni was first of all a romantic ballerina.
@@white.swan. I wasn't talking about Swan, in the begging I meant beginning of ballet itself I had in mind the beautiful violin piece when she was dancing, that is what I considered the beginning. Everybody knows Swan and ballet The Dying Swan, the violin piece is in style of Mozart. I know all the other music here, Tchaikovsky, Drigo, Mozart, Minkus, Sati (sounded like his style) Chopin and more but couldn't recognize this piece. I am pretty sure it's Mozart but don't know the title. Thanks
20:10. .. I go absolutely ga-ga for this fabulous pizzicato.

@@mrlopez-pz7pu Not from La Fille mal Gardee, from The Harlem Tulip. The male variation by Drigo.
Hace años que busco este ballet completo. Una belleza. Gracias por subirlo!!!❤

Roland Petit благословляет и вдохновляет утончённые балетные души-и, вот, поэзия, порыв, пластический мотив от великого мастера❤
Merveilleuse Khalfouni!
Me encantaría el vídeo completo de Gottchalk con A.B.T. Great galloping, Johan Renvall, etc.
What is the name of the music of 8:40???
Chopin Etude
@שושנה13 ??but witch
Love the music, what is the violin piece in the beginning, it is so beautiful
It's The Swan by Saint Saens, from his suite "The Carnival of the animals" 😊

@@BytomGirl Oh sorry, I misunderstood you! I thought you were talking about the very beginning music 😅 Are you referring to the music at 2:30?
@@BytomGirl If you're referring to that music, is the 2nd movement of Mozart Sinfonia Concertante K.364 🥰 I hope I've been helpful for you!
Anyway I agree with you, it's really wonderful piece. I never heard it in a ballet, but it's beautiful and it fits so well with the coreography!
Merci

Здорово!
