Steven McRae is the greatest male dancer since Baryshnikov. Stunning partnering, incomparable technique and outstanding panache. I have seen Rojo in other performances and she never seems to look very happy or engaged with the audience - though she danced beautifully here.
Ottima performance caratterizzata da una mirabile maestria della ballerina nei passi sulle punte in veloce eundo e laterali .Ottima imptessione di facilità esecutiva d'acchito sorprendente per entrambi e di levità fatta tensione motile sorprendente nella ballerina.Ottimo l'impadronimento imperativo del proscenio da parte del ballerino a balzi falcati amplissimi ed a rotazioni volanti. Ottimo il senso del continuum dato alla pièce danzante dai protagonisti. Superlativi.Bighin Giulio Renzo 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
So beautiful! Very professionally, controlled & skilled, yet graceful, smooth, eloquent. I feel that the dress added to the beauty. It provided another element of beautiful motion. Perhaps those who criticize her dress are purists, who feel that the traditional tutu's way of being fixed in relation to the body, like the dancer's nose, is the only way to do it, but this dress is like an additional limb, which provides motion, like an arm or a leg.I find that an improvement over tradition.
These two are fabulous together & their mutual concern for each other is obvious.....they richly deserve the encores. When they were first partnered, they looked like two rather small but athletic dancers. Well, they've lost the 'baby fat' and they are exciting to watch. One of my favorite couples, exciting to watch!
Wow - I have never seen anyone who can spin like Tamara - when she came out at 10:44 - she was spinning like a top. The coordination between the two dancers in the last act was terrific.
ive seen him many times live, never failed to amaze. great personality , a bit like a Baryishnikov can do anything including tap dancing, looks so natural with a cute smile. Shame as at the end of last season had an injury and was getting back to fitness when all this horrendous change of lifestyle set in. Just hope to god i get to see him live again and indeed any ballet, miss all my trips to live performances terribly
I love the costumes!!! raymonda story can be taken part in a modern world because it's so flexible. but watching with the costumes is like watching a today's princess deciding her countries future. BRAVO!!!!
@@margaretlavender9647 Not necessarily and I don't need an English lesson. I meant nothing impolite or sexist by my comment made some years ago and I stand by it. I also refuse to be rude to anyone so thank you for the response.
I agree with you. Looks funny to see Jean de Brienne in jacket and tie. Even so they're terrific. too bad there isn't a complete dvd of them doing Raymonda.
Maravillosa actuación con técnica impecable. El tercer acto de Raymonda es una preciosidad. ¡ No se me olvidará nunca, cuando Rudolf Nureyev hizo está parte del Ballet con El Royal Ballet en Londres que no se conocía en Occidente.
PS --- This is not to say, that this was not good dancing. Tamara is always fantastic. Always great to see her dance; for that she does. She gives it her all. And, no other ballerina "goes for it". She's that courageous. Love her.
SPECTACULAR! . ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. MUSICALITY, TECHNIQUE.....THEILLING PERFORMANCE BY STUNNING TAMARA ROJO! WHAT FARUKH RUZIMATOV , THOUGH NOW RWTIRED, OR CHUPIN COULD DO WITH THIS ROLE WOULD BE BEYOND SUPERLATIVE. DID, HOWEVER, LOVE MCRAE.
Marie-Agnes, Aurelie and Rojo. I love to run all 3 over and over. As an amateur fan of ballet, not crtical but Raymonda is my favorite. Glazunov's music is wonderful, especially the 3rd act, makes one think of Russia. Steven McRae is terrific and makes me think of Baryshnikov.
Lovely video. McRae's qualities as a partner are seldom commented on, but he's very good - secure and so forth, but he also keeps his ballerinas mood relaxed. I cherish the moments between scenes when I see the ladies laugh at some remark he's made.
Just for the fact that Nureyev gave the West this exquisite version of the 3rd Act of Raymonda, he should be lifted up to heaven. Brilliant work Tamara. Steven doesn't understand anything about the character but dances perfectly well.
I think the costume is interesting. it take us apart from the childish, boring, pancake tutu Raymonda, and Tamara performs a mature, even seductive Raymonda. Besides, when she turns (obviously the designer knew she is a great turner) the skirts goes up and u can see different colors from blue to white. Very nice performance :)
No doubt Tamara is a true beauty and a GREAT! ballerina. The BEST! However, something did seem a little off. I'm not sure what it was, nevertheless, I can watch her endlessly; she's that good.
Oh my, there were moments here where Mr. McRae reminded me so much of Sir Robert Helpmann! Perhaps it is just the hair and makeup? Or is there something of Australia that shines through in both of them? Perhaps Mr. McRae is too young to have met Mr. Helpmann, but it is a wonderful legacy to carry forward.
Hello Kevin, Sadly I don't think they could have met,as Robert Helpmann died in 1986,the same year that Steven McRae was born.Who knows,mabye Helpmanns spirit transferred into Steven.Hope this doesn't freak you out?LOL
This is the absolute best performance of this dance I’ve ever seen. Both dancers are incredible. ❤️
Spectacular!!! Both are amazing!!! He’s one of the best dancers ever
FANTASTIC!!!!! This pair is absolutely perfect together, both so athletic but exquisitely graceful, really something to behold!!
One is athletic and the other is graceful.

A joy to watch, how impeccable is Steven McRae, such beauty of line and what a partner for the delicious Tamara
Absolutely awesome; I loved this. Phenomenal performance!

This is breathtaking. Just amazing!! Bravo👏🏻 I love these two dancers, Tamara and McRae.
Bravo Steven McCrae...immaculate, pristine technique always...remarkable product of RAD....and he can tap also!
Raymonda can be interesting when done right!! THIS IS AMAZING

The piano part in Raymonda is one of the true gems of classical ballet ever

This is SUCH a wonderful performance. I am so impressed. 'Bravo!' to both of you.
I am always astounded by what these two dancers can do! Incredible! Inimitable!
Wow - I have never seen anyone who can spin like Tamara - when she came out at 10:44 - she was spinning like a top. The coordination between the two dancers in the last act was terrific.
Sylvie Guillem beats all and everything.
Тамара, ты царица,!!!!
This was excellent! Wow! I can only imagine witnessing this in person.
ive seen him many times live, never failed to amaze. great personality , a bit like a Baryishnikov can do anything including tap dancing, looks so natural with a cute smile.

Absolutely stunning. Bravo! Wonderful partnership.
AMAZING the triple tours and fouettes and the ending just beautiful!!! their control and technique was spotless as well :)
Boy are they good !! Masters !! A joy to watch
I love the costumes!!! raymonda story can be taken part in a modern world because it's so flexible. but watching with the costumes is like watching a today's princess deciding her countries future. BRAVO!!!!
This is beautiful...two brilliant Artistes. They outshine many other overhyped performers!!
hes like a ginger baryishnikov one of the royals most gifted dancers
Both fabulous!!!
Um par absolutamente maravilhoso com uma técnica irrepreensível. Bravo!
Brilliant !!!😊
¡Superior!. Un final virtuoso.
Oh my I think Tamara Rojo is my new hero. Her solo was just flawless.
She is a woman. So, heroine.

ella es fenomel en todo lo que baila. todos expresan lo que sienten de diferente manera, hermoso como siempre tamara rojo
best pod ever! perfect match. that coda was everything.
Steven McRae what a beautiful dancer and partner..
Tamara has smiles aplenty when she's not on the stage... She just takes her dance seriously.
Фантастика !
Nunca vi nada igual! Perfeitos!!! Bravissimi!
Yes, world ballet festival tokyo 2012. Wonderful master class in the scene
Outstandinggggg!!!! Bravo!!!!
And They have amazing control! And it was very clean
That was just phenomenal.
Oh my god you are sooooooo talent!!! Love you so much!😘
wow his technique is so clean ...I love it !!!
Absolutely amazing! Stunning !!
I agree with you. Looks funny to see Jean de Brienne in jacket and tie. Even so they're terrific. too bad there isn't a complete dvd of them doing Raymonda.
My ever favorite dancers and my ever favorite Pas de deux. Gosh.
Es difícil encontrar, en ambos, igual limpieza, elegancia y virtuosismo. Maravillosos.
I find Steven McRae very much like a feather blown by the wind and landed so lightly on the ground.
He is a feather but she isn't.
BRAVO such and amazing arch and technique both
Maravillosa actuación con técnica impecable. El tercer acto de Raymonda es una preciosidad. ¡ No se me olvidará nunca, cuando Rudolf Nureyev hizo está parte del Ballet con El Royal Ballet en Londres que no se conocía en Occidente.
TAMARA TI ADORO!!!!!!!
хочу отметить отличное исполнение музыки оркестром. очень сбалансированное и харАктерное
He visto varias veces este baile y me sigue gustando como al principio.
This is perfection!
PS --- This is not to say, that this was not good dancing. Tamara is always fantastic. Always great to see her dance; for that she does. She gives it her all. And, no other ballerina "goes for it". She's that courageous. Love her.
This is Class.
her variation was phenomenal! :D
I've never seen a ballerina attempt a quadruple pirouette in that last diagonal of her variation. She very nearly does it too! Brava!
OMG!!! Amazing!!!
ブラボー👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖💖
Bravo🎉
Goosebumps !
SPECTACULAR! . ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. MUSICALITY, TECHNIQUE.....THEILLING PERFORMANCE BY STUNNING TAMARA ROJO! WHAT FARUKH RUZIMATOV , THOUGH NOW RWTIRED, OR CHUPIN COULD DO WITH THIS ROLE WOULD BE BEYOND SUPERLATIVE. DID, HOWEVER, LOVE MCRAE.
Marie-Agnes, Aurelie and Rojo. I love to run all 3 over and over. As an amateur fan of ballet, not crtical but Raymonda is my favorite. Glazunov's music is wonderful, especially the 3rd act, makes one think of Russia. Steven McRae is terrific and makes me think of Baryshnikov.

One never has enough Glazunov.
Raymonda virou minha variação preferida 😍
What hauteur!
Lovely video. McRae's qualities as a partner are seldom commented on, but he's very good - secure and so forth, but he also keeps his ballerinas mood relaxed. I cherish the moments between scenes when I see the ladies laugh at some remark he's made.
Bravo, Bravo ..............
Crazy fun day on Mount Olympus.
Just for the fact that Nureyev gave the West this exquisite version of the 3rd Act of Raymonda, he should be lifted up to heaven. Brilliant work Tamara. Steven doesn't understand anything about the character but dances perfectly well.
mind blowing! just wow
i adore her
Как мало мы видим такой красоты. В театре это воспринимается иначе!
Maravilloso!!!!!!
She is so elegant
Maybe, he is?
Muy bueno ambos bailarines excelente tecnica
Astounding!
Meravigliosi
Maravillosos!!!!!!!!!
speechless just speechless...
Tamara is absolutely gorgeous, best Raymonda ever!
Did you notice at the end of the coda on the supported pirouette, she keeps turning after he takes his hands away? Brava Tamara!
Bravissimo!
were those triple tours in the finale?!
Yes
Here chainees were superbly executed
Fantastic.
I think the costume is interesting. it take us apart from the childish, boring, pancake tutu Raymonda, and Tamara performs a mature, even seductive Raymonda. Besides, when she turns (obviously the designer knew she is a great turner) the skirts goes up and u can see different colors from blue to white. Very nice performance :)
Omg! Truly spectacular..
Y love you , Tamara Rojo
Their SO GOOD. I hate that she retired :(
Writing from the recovery room, just a little screaming and crying and going insane. Rock-star things they do that have never been done.
つま先がしっかり伸びてて凄く綺麗
whoa they are both so strong
Very far from Nathalia Bessmertnova ( Bolchoi-1989 ) and Noella Pontois Paris-Opera ( 1983 ) videos Y T !
Steven McRae is phenomenal! (A little smile from Ms. Rojo would endear her a bit more to the audience--besides her incredible technique and style.)
No doubt Tamara is a true beauty and a GREAT! ballerina. The BEST! However, something did seem a little off. I'm not sure what it was, nevertheless, I can watch her endlessly; she's that good.
Amazing.
Very much in poor taste to make disparaging remarks about such wonderful artists as these.
Tastes differ, you know.
I absolutely loooooove her :D
Yes, it was very cleanly done!
thanks for such an amazing video! was this from the world ballet festival?

Triple tours!!!!
