While you might think she's boring, I find her to be the most interesting...she's all about her terms...unlike other ballerinas doing the pas de deux,...I don't know, but there's something about her that is magnificent.
I agree. Her characterisation of the black swan is so absolutely in control - every movement and head tilt is so calculated that it seems as if the black swan is one determining how the scene plays out. I loved it.
Ik, I love ballet, I enjoy and I really anted to be like her. This dance wasn’t boring at all instead I studied her turn outs and turns, and they way she dances, it made it really interesting, this is what I love in ballet.
I have seen whole ballet Swan Lake in the Finnish National Opera. The performance was the valediction of great Finnish ballerina Kirsi Aromaa. She danced the double role of swan queen Odette and black swan Odile. I enjoyed that fine performance.
Most dancers are a better Odette than Odile. She's a much easier character to act. Even some of my all time favourite dancers have struggled with the role of Odile. But two Odiles have really struck me: Diana Vishneva is one and Ekatarina Kondaurova is the other. What I love about Ekatarina is the transitions she makes. She starts out slightly bitchy and vivacious, but when Odette comes on at the window and she has to keep up the pretence of actually being Odette, she comes out with a beautiful piece of 'white' acting, so that the audience, along with Prince Siegfried, are fooled for a moment. Then she also incorporates the 'acting for the benefit of the court' aspects of the role. Her only issue is one that a lot of the Mariinsky's best dancers have: keeping up her acting in the pirouettes. That said, I can't keep up my acting in the pirouettes either! ;) But anyway, I just love her! :D
thanks Thomas for this most beautiful black swan version. katherina is the best Odile j have seen we have a new champion,.Her dance skills are perfect as for weakness she has none. Svetlana I love your Swan Lake buts its time to move over you have met your match This is for you Thomas you must find us the 3 acts we are missing its such a great performance
Oh, she was marvelous! Great control over her own body and movements, altough I think she was a bit too quick, or at least for my taste. I wish there was more footage of her dancing. But as for Timur, he seems to be intimidated by her and does not level up to her. But that again is just my oppinion. Perhaps he is used to borderline dancers like his arguable girlfriend.For you see, what makes ballerinas such as Kondaurova and Lopatkina great beyond what words can describe is that when they dance it seems they do it so effortlessly, whereas Oksana seems to be so strain and as if she is at the limit of what she has. The two I mentioned previously - you never really can tell what their abilities are and if they have limitations at all, because of the control they demonstrate. They also do not need to show off everything they are capable of.
I feel so too that she was a bit too quick, maybe this was depended on Gergiev's steady quick tempo. I prefer a little bit more softness or variance....!!
Emily Petzke There are many interpretations of what Odille is like. In some stagings she is just the pawn of Rothbard. And the choreography already sets the difference between her and Odette. Anyway, I don't think that being quick makes her any more velocios, arrogant and precise.
At 1:56 I was listening to I Am Not A Robot by Marina And The Diamonds and it was timed perfectly! It was so amazing! Too bad I don't remember when I played the song at the part of this video. I wish I could time it percectly again.
Oh my God... 35 Fouettés?!?!?! 35 turns on one leg?!?!?! 35 turns en pointe on one leg without touching the ground once?!?!?! Ekaterina Kondaurova is a queen and I love her.
What superb arms and beautiful technique she has. If she works on her acting to develop the character more and listens to Fokine's words she could reach perfection. Fokine said " Technique is a means not an end. Learn to dance, not just execute steps" (quoted in Anton Dolins book)
What are those running leaps the male does at 11:30 called?
8 лет назад
Excuse for my spelling and maybe, but mainly in the ballet circles is reffered to as: coupe jete en manege. It is probably not the full name, Just how it is reffered to as most of the time
+pediatrapaola not ever, but these days is one of my favourite for sure. She is strong, refined, passionate. Offcourse my #1 is Mezetseva but she is a history.
Do you know why some versions have a slightly different ending for the coda? Instead of (and please excuse my highly un-technical terminology) dancing in a circle, Odile hops back 3 steps several times and the pas de deux ends with the prince kneeling before Odile and kissing her hand. I actually prefer this version but am wondering what the reasons are for the two different choreographies. Thanks if you know!
There are many versions of the choreography, no one dances it exactly as it was intended by Petipa. It has been rehashed many times and there are now many different versions of the choreography, some even include different music in the Black Swan Pas de Deux. For a better idea of this there is a video showing the original Choreography of the 1895 Petipa version called "After Petipa" with the choreography from the Petipa-Ivanov-Drigo version as notated from the 1895 revival, and also the Ballet Ruses version in 1911.
kittygamerkat kat baku needs timur ,and he should go taking with him his equally untalentated girlfriend awful ox skorik .in baku they would be absolute stars LOL
Can anyone explain it to me. I so understand that Tchaikovsky's version was lost and it's to it Balanchine wrote choreography. Then this music (in this video) is really Minkus' one, not Tchaikovsky's?
10 лет назад+1
No,the story of the music, is a s follows. On 26 April 1877 the prima ballerina of the Moscow Imperial Bolshoi Theatre Anna Sobeshchanskaya made her début as Odette/Odile in Swan Lake, and from the start she was completely dissatisfied with the production of the ballet, but most of all with Reisinger's choreography and Tchaikovsky's music. Sobeshchanskaya travelled to St. Petersburg to have Marius Petipa-Premier Maître de Ballet of the St. Petersburg Imperial Theatres-choreograph a new pas de deux to replace the Pas de six that functioned as the third act's Grand Pas. For a ballerina to request a supplemental pas or variation was standard practice in 19th century ballet, and often these "custom-made" dances quite literally became the legal property of the ballerina they were composed for. Petipa choreographed Sobeshchanskaya's pas de deux to music composed by Ludwig Minkus, who held the post of Ballet composer to the St Petersburg Imperial Theatres. The piece was a standard pas de deux classique that consisted of a short entrée, the grand adage, a variation for the dancer, a variation for the ballerina, and a coda. Word of this change soon found its way to Tchaikovsky, who became very angry, stating that, whether the ballet is good or bad, he alone shall be held responsible for its music. He then agreed to compose a new pas de deux for the ballerina, but soon a problem arose: Sobeshchanskaya had no reservations about performing a pas to Tchaikovsky's new music, but she wanted to retain Petipa's choreography, and she had no wish to travel to St. Petersburg again to have the Ballet Master arrange a new pas for her. In light of this, Tchaikovsky agreed to compose a pas that would correspond to Minkus' music to such a degree that the ballerina would not even be required to rehearse. Sobeshchanskaya was so pleased with Tchaikovsky's new version of the Minkus music that she requested he compose for her an additional variation, which he did. Until 1953 this pas de deux was thought to be lost, until an accidentally discovered repétiteur was found in the archives of the Moscow Bolshoi Theatre among the orchestral parts used for Alexander Gorsky's revival of Le Corsaire (Gorsky had included the piece in his version of Le Corsaire staged in 1912). In 1960 George Balanchine choreographed a pas de deux to this music for the Ballerina Violette Verdy, and the Danseur Conrad Ludlow under the title Tschaikovsky Pas de Deux, as it is still known and performed today.
Why "no"? The article says that Minkus wrote music for the Black Swan pas de deux. Then Tchaikovsky wrote his own version. So we have two Black Swan pas de deux, one by Minkus and one by Tchikovsky. One of them was lost and then found in the Bolshoi. To this lost and found one Balanchine wrote a new choreography and called it Tchaikovsky's Pas De Deux. As he called it "Tchaikovsky's Pas De Deux" it's logical to assume that that' the one composed by Tchaikovsky, and then the one we hear in this video is the Minkus's.

The one, that Minkus wrote, is lost. The one we hear today,is tchaikovsky. it just corresponds with the minkus' version. It is still tchaikovsky. that is the whole story. The music just corresponds with the choreography, made on minkus' music.
***** But another Pas De Deux also exists. You can find it by typing "Tchaikovsky Pas De Deux" here on youtube. I've also seen a Swan Lake production in which Odile danced to it, not to this one. And here is another article balanchine.com/tschaikovsky-pas-de-deux/ It says Tchaikovsky's version was lost.
10 лет назад+1
I know of what you speak. There are many versions of this pas de deux (the version of which you are reffering to, is the bolshoi version (or it is also possible la scala) in which the coda, the female variation and male are different (bolshoi uses the same entree and addagio, while the male variation is the same one, as in tchaikovsky pas de deux, the female variation is something else, but i know of what you speak). The thing is no one really knows for sure, what is from who, but most people, seem to claim the original musics are the ones playing in the mariinsky and bolshoi theatre, where (boslhoi) was actually the first production). And also since then, after petipa, a lot of the orchestration for the score have been changed. and since there are not many records concerning the original production, and its score, it is very obsuce, as to who deserves credit for what. i know it may sound strange, but still... so in conclusion. Yes there is a pas de deux from balanchine, called the tchaikovsky pas de deux and there is swan lake as it is performed today (however, since it has been changed so many times and many theatres do different versions, it is not rather known, as to who is responsible for what (for example, even in russia, there are two version (then paris opera has another version, and so on and so forth...). so this in comclusion was my point
Can someone explain the storyline of Swan Lake? I'm really confused. Like the story for this ending where Odile gets the prince. TY
8 лет назад+10
+Merry Rainbow It is no problem. Basically the story is: The prince Siegfried is basically in the first act informed that he must choose a wife, with whom he can rule. Hegets a hunting bow for his birthday, with which he goes hunting. While hunting he encounters Odette (The White Swan), who tells him, that she was turned into a swan by the evil Rothbart and that only true love could break the spell. He swears that he would introduce her the next day at the ball which his parents are throwing for him. They part. The next day the ball takes place, with many national (Spanish, Neapolitan dance, mazurka...) being dance. And just when the prince rejects all of the princesses that have come, there comes a misterious girl with her father (which is actually Odile, Rothbart's daughter, which was enchanted to look like odile (only she wears a black tutu instead of a white one). They dance and just as the prince swear his love for her in front of everybody, Odette is seen outside crying her eyes out. The prince realizes he has been tricked and races after Odette. This was act three. (after the pas de deux i have one more video which shows what happens after the pas de deux9 By the lake, the swans mourn their awful fate. Odette arrives and tells them what happened. The prince rushes after her, but she tells him, that because he whore his love for another, the spell cannot be broken. She, however forgives him. No here is where the story differentiates between different theatres. In this version, the happy ending, Rothbart is killed by Siegfried, when he tears of one of Rothbarts wings. Odette is thus saved and marries the prince. In some other versions, because they know that the spell cannot be broken they throw themselves into the lake and their love defeats Rothbart. It all depends on the version.
+Tomaž Golub Then you also have the bad ending where the Prince drowns and Odette never forgives him. While Rothbart survives. And the one where Rothbart kills Odette and the Prince never forgives himself, crying til the end.
biopump2000 как приятно, что смогла обратить ваше внимание) Ульяна просто обворожительная танцовщица, ее партия черного лебедя навсегда останется для меня эталонной, столько грации, изящества и ее исключительная хитринка в глазах довершает сходство с совершенством...
Lovely pas de deux! The only problem for me are the Russian style of fouettes, because extending the leg out in a la seconde w/o doing it devant makes it look very rushed and frenzied.
En toda la historia de la humanidad, siempre hubo "un cisbe negro'" que utilizo engañis , argucias, para ligrar sus objetivos, sin embargo algunas veces no lo lograron. Se supone que la verdad es la que triunfa o deberia en situaciones normales
+kristine bjørnsen The movie Black Swan or the black swan character from this ballet. Cause Black Swan isn't it's own ballet. She's a character in Swan lake.
This is a clip from Swan Lake, where the Queen wants her son to marry, but he can only think about the White Swan (Odette) who is under a spell to where she’s a swan by day, woman by night, and can’t leave until someone confesses their love for her. (The Pronce was going to proclaim his love, but he was driven away by the sorcerer who put Odette under the spell in the first place) Anyway, as I was saying. The Queen wants her son to marry but he only loves Odette, but the sorcerer comes in with his daughter, who is under a spell to look exactly like Odette. The sorcerer wants to trick him into marrying his daughter, and the prince claims he does want to, and proposes. But then from the window, it’s turns out that all along Odette was watching, and she runs back to the Lake, and from there is the finale.
Maybe it's weird but I'm not a fan of very high quality ballet videos. They don't add authenticity, instead the video looses a little bit of climate. Nobody sits that close to the actual performance in an opera to see muscles twitching or tiny balance loosing. It distracts from what's important here, I had to watch this video twice to capture just how good the choreography and the dancers are.
I like this offering very much. He is a very relaxed dancer with a lightness to his spirit and movements. I do think he should work on projecting more masculine energy and conveying more interest in her. I enjoyed her very much too and feel she does a nice job portraying both the hard-edged seductress - and using her eyes well for that - and mixing it up with her languid lay-backs onto him. Please get a re-fitting on the "tail" of the tutu. No matter how slender or cute your bottom, I don't want to see your glutes. It's neither classical, nor sexy, just distracting.
timur please go back to baku leaving your undeserved place free for some really good dancer as latypov ivkin popov and others ,and possibily bring with you oxana skorik.
he always gives the most clueless interpretation without any accentuation in every variation he's in. no deserving soloist. but could be the best in baku.
All of the music was burned in my head when I was a child... I probably watched Barbie and the swan lake to much... XD
Same tho
Our Lives As Bffs
Same.
same and the movements
same! to this day this scene has a special place in my heart
Our Lives As Bffs yesss and yesss.
This is the best black swan pas de deux in these days. They really did excellent dance.
I really like kondaurova, she is so powerful and regal in her dancing!
Heh.... See Uliana Lopatkina!!! Etalon!
i was starring at her arm and back muscles the whole time especially in the first half , she is so prettyyy ♡.♡ and she dances so amazing :×
This black swan is the best in my memory. She is very elegant and beautiful swan with poison. All her pas are so swan!
Everything is beautiful: costumes, scenery and Kondaurova is really good in that role.
While you might think she's boring, I find her to be the most interesting...she's all about her terms...unlike other ballerinas doing the pas de deux,...I don't know, but there's something about her that is magnificent.
+cheshirecat255 her lines are to die for ! Her performance is very flowing. I think she is exquisite
I agree. Her characterisation of the black swan is so absolutely in control - every movement and head tilt is so calculated that it seems as if the black swan is one determining how the scene plays out. I loved it.
Ik, I love ballet, I enjoy and I really anted to be like her. This dance wasn’t boring at all instead I studied her turn outs and turns, and they way she dances, it made it really interesting, this is what I love in ballet.
He movements flow like water, and she is in control of every muscle in her body. Control is the cornerstone of Russian ballet.
Kondaurova is amazing!!! Elegance and sensuality. I love her! No doubt
AMAZING
Stunning performance from both ballet dancers....
I love ballet never get bored watching it. Especially this pas de duex on of my favorites.
One of the best Black swans I have seen
what can I say? this is absolutely beautiful! I mean the female dancer of course.
I have seen whole ballet Swan Lake in the Finnish National Opera. The performance was the valediction of great Finnish ballerina Kirsi Aromaa. She danced the double role of swan queen Odette and black swan Odile. I enjoyed that fine performance.
Excellent performance!
Are you kidding she beasted that freaking dance I'm crying because I'm not that fabulous
Most dancers are a better Odette than Odile. She's a much easier character to act. Even some of my all time favourite dancers have struggled with the role of Odile. But two Odiles have really struck me: Diana Vishneva is one and Ekatarina Kondaurova is the other. What I love about Ekatarina is the transitions she makes.

Her only issue is one that a lot of the Mariinsky's best dancers have: keeping up her acting in the pirouettes. That said, I can't keep up my acting in the pirouettes either! ;) But anyway, I just love her! :D

The music is fabulous!
WONDERFUL! Love E.K.!👍
she has great lines
I finally uploadd the Black Swan pas de deux; it is the countinuation of the previous video, entrance of Odile
😱
Toma
Tu parles le français?
I love Mariinsky ballet really the first !!!
thanks Thomas for this most beautiful black swan version. katherina is the best Odile j have seen we have a new champion,.Her dance skills are perfect as for weakness she has none. Svetlana I love your Swan Lake buts its time to move over you have met your match
This is for you Thomas you must find us the 3 acts we are missing its such a great performance
Yes she is. wow, its stunning... very elegant....
Beautiful!
Oh, she was marvelous! Great control over her own body and movements, altough I think she was a bit too quick, or at least for my taste. I wish there was more footage of her dancing. But as for Timur, he seems to be intimidated by her and does not level up to her. But that again is just my oppinion. Perhaps he is used to borderline dancers like his arguable girlfriend.For you see, what makes ballerinas such as Kondaurova and Lopatkina great beyond what words can describe is that when they dance it seems they do it so effortlessly, whereas Oksana seems to be so strain and as if she is at the limit of what she has. The two I mentioned previously - you never really can tell what their abilities are and if they have limitations at all, because of the control they demonstrate. They also do not need to show off everything they are capable of.
I feel so too that she was a bit too quick, maybe this was depended on Gergiev's steady quick tempo. I prefer a little bit more softness or variance....!!
Emily Petzke There are many interpretations of what Odille is like. In some stagings she is just the pawn of Rothbard. And the choreography already sets the difference between her and Odette. Anyway, I don't think that being quick makes her any more velocios, arrogant and precise.
Emily Petzke Thanks, your comment helps me to understand it. But I still think Gergiev's tempo was apt to relatively quick even on the Odette scene.
At 1:56 I was listening to I Am Not A Robot by Marina And The Diamonds and it was timed perfectly! It was so amazing! Too bad I don't remember when I played the song at the part of this video. I wish I could time it percectly again.
Ожидала большего
One of the best performances for Odile I've ever seen.
Beautiful performance.
she is gorgeous!
Oh my God... 35 Fouettés?!?!?! 35 turns on one leg?!?!?! 35 turns en pointe on one leg without touching the ground once?!?!?! Ekaterina Kondaurova is a queen and I love her.
both are fab :) great job!
Her exentions are amazing and so is he
Kondaurova has more Carmen than swans in her. She needs taller prince for this. Thanks for sharing.
Ekaterina Kondaurova é uma bailarina maravilhosa.
What superb arms and beautiful technique she has. If she works on her acting to develop the character more and listens to Fokine's words she could reach perfection. Fokine said " Technique is a means not an end. Learn to dance, not just execute steps" (quoted in Anton Dolins book)
amazing pas de deux!!! I like this part very much
Hermoso. Hermoso.
Her arms are amazing.
Excelente gracias por compartir
i love it
Best i''ve seen
Oh my god those legs 😱 she did so good
BRAVOOOOOOO
amaaaazeeeballssss!
wonderful!! thank you guys! be in contact 😋
Sorry but whats the name of the final piece in the last minute? or how can i find more of this final part? from 10:21- 12:34?
It's called coda. most of the orchestrations tha are available have the pas de deux in the first act
What are those running leaps the male does at 11:30 called?
Excuse for my spelling and maybe, but mainly in the ballet circles is reffered to as: coupe jete en manege. It is probably not the full name, Just how it is reffered to as most of the time
*****
Thank you very much!
great pas de deux...but that was the most unmusical male variation i have ever seen.
because he is very mediocre imo his presence and rank in mariinsky is a mistery
her dress looks exacly like princess kraehe/ rue from the anime princess tutu
SUBLIME!!!! nada más puede describir la que acabo de ver... Sublime
A Kondylicious Odile in good musical form. She should have had Ermakov as Siegfried.
The best Swan ever to date is Marianela Nunez, the Royal Ballet's version of Swan Lake is sublime.
Love their version and the always have dynamic sets
+Pheebs Absolutely agree.
+reanimato1 marianela nunez best swan ever? why?
+pediatrapaola not ever, but these days is one of my favourite for sure. She is strong, refined, passionate. Offcourse my #1 is Mezetseva but she is a history.
you cannot say she is the best.
What are the moves from 11:54-12:03 called?
+Alex Sigurjónsson The moves, which you are reffering to are called pique en tournen (pique turns) on mannege (in a circle)
Thanks a lot!
+Alex Sigurjónsson No problem!
spelling correx: tours piqués en tournant en manège
Idk if I like the look of her fouettes, but everything else is beautiful.
Her legs are so delicate and strong and beautiful at the same time...
Do you know why some versions have a slightly different ending for the coda? Instead of (and please excuse my highly un-technical terminology) dancing in a circle, Odile hops back 3 steps several times and the pas de deux ends with the prince kneeling before Odile and kissing her hand.

Can anyone explain it to me. I so understand that Tchaikovsky's version was lost and it's to it Balanchine wrote choreography. Then this music (in this video) is really Minkus' one, not Tchaikovsky's?
No,the story of the music, is a s follows.
On 26 April 1877 the prima ballerina of the Moscow Imperial Bolshoi Theatre Anna Sobeshchanskaya made her début as Odette/Odile in Swan Lake, and from the start she was completely dissatisfied with the production of the ballet, but most of all with Reisinger's choreography and Tchaikovsky's music.

For a ballerina to request a supplemental pas or variation was standard practice in 19th century ballet, and often these "custom-made" dances quite literally became the legal property of the ballerina they were composed for.

As he called it "Tchaikovsky's Pas De Deux" it's logical to assume that that' the one composed by Tchaikovsky, and then the one we hear in this video is the Minkus's.
The one, that Minkus wrote, is lost. The one we hear today,is tchaikovsky. it just corresponds with the minkus' version. It is still tchaikovsky. that is the whole story. The music just corresponds with the choreography, made on minkus' music.
***** But another Pas De Deux also exists. You can find it by typing "Tchaikovsky Pas De Deux" here on youtube. I've also seen a Swan Lake production in which Odile danced to it, not to this one. And here is another article balanchine.com/tschaikovsky-pas-de-deux/ It says Tchaikovsky's version was lost.

so in conclusion. Yes there is a pas de deux from balanchine, called the tchaikovsky pas de deux and there is swan lake as it is performed today (however, since it has been changed so many times and many theatres do different versions, it is not rather known, as to who is responsible for what (for example, even in russia, there are two version (then paris opera has another version, and so on and so forth...). so this in comclusion was my point
so this is the song that was in my video... thanks youtube for identifying that

春の気圧で生理も不安だよね😺バレエはやすんだことにやいけど😻
Can someone explain the storyline of Swan Lake? I'm really confused. Like the story for this ending where Odile gets the prince. TY
+Merry Rainbow It is no problem. Basically the story is: The prince Siegfried is basically in the first act informed that he must choose a wife, with whom he can rule. Hegets a hunting bow for his birthday, with which he goes hunting. While hunting he encounters Odette (The White Swan), who tells him, that she was turned into a swan by the evil Rothbart and that only true love could break the spell. He swears that he would introduce her the next day at the ball which his parents are throwing for him. They part. The next day the ball takes place, with many national (Spanish, Neapolitan dance, mazurka...) being dance. And just when the prince rejects all of the princesses that have come, there comes a misterious girl with her father (which is actually Odile, Rothbart's daughter, which was enchanted to look like odile (only she wears a black tutu instead of a white one). They dance and just as the prince swear his love for her in front of everybody, Odette is seen outside crying her eyes out. The prince realizes he has been tricked and races after Odette. This was act three. (after the pas de deux i have one more video which shows what happens after the pas de deux9
By the lake, the swans mourn their awful fate. Odette arrives and tells them what happened. The prince rushes after her, but she tells him, that because he whore his love for another, the spell cannot be broken. She, however forgives him. No here is where the story differentiates between different theatres. In this version, the happy ending, Rothbart is killed by Siegfried, when he tears of one of Rothbarts wings. Odette is thus saved and marries the prince. In some other versions, because they know that the spell cannot be broken they throw themselves into the lake and their love defeats Rothbart. It all depends on the version.
Thank You So Much! *****! This Helped A Lot!
+Tomaž Golub Then you also have the bad ending where the Prince drowns and Odette never forgives him. While Rothbart survives. And the one where Rothbart kills Odette and the Prince never forgives himself, crying til the end.
+Pauline IV Oh Gods. That ending is the worst...
Merry Rainbow Yeah it saddened me to think Odette and Siegfried ended up dead or separated forever.
hello
In the actual show, does the same person play both Odette and Odile?
ChibiTwilight yes... Most productions do it like that. Because she is supposed to like the same as Odette
не могу побороть в себе стойкое чувство, что она украла костюм Ульяны Лопаткиной, но не смогла взять и часть ее грации...
biopump2000 как приятно, что смогла обратить ваше внимание) Ульяна просто обворожительная танцовщица, ее партия черного лебедя навсегда останется для меня эталонной, столько грации, изящества и ее исключительная хитринка в глазах довершает сходство с совершенством...

Lovely pas de deux!
The only problem for me are the Russian style of fouettes, because extending the leg out in a la seconde w/o doing it devant makes it look very rushed and frenzied.

The 32 fouetté annoyed me because of how much she was traveling, other than that her performance was amazing.
this might cause controversy, but she's the best odile.... maria alexandrova comes in close
En toda la historia de la humanidad, siempre hubo "un cisbe negro'" que utilizo engañis , argucias, para ligrar sus objetivos, sin embargo algunas veces no lo lograron. Se supone que la verdad es la que triunfa o deberia en situaciones normales

What is Black swan really about? Like, what is the story?
+kristine bjørnsen The movie Black Swan or the black swan character from this ballet. Cause Black Swan isn't it's own ballet. She's a character in Swan lake.
This is a clip from Swan Lake, where the Queen wants her son to marry, but he can only think about the White Swan (Odette) who is under a spell to where she’s a swan by day, woman by night, and can’t leave until someone confesses their love for her. (The Pronce was going to proclaim his love, but he was driven away by the sorcerer who put Odette under the spell in the first place)
Anyway, as I was saying. The Queen wants her son to marry but he only loves Odette, but the sorcerer comes in with his daughter, who is under a spell to look exactly like Odette. The sorcerer wants to trick him into marrying his daughter, and the prince claims he does want to, and proposes. But then from the window, it’s turns out that all along Odette was watching, and she runs back to the Lake, and from there is the finale.
I need this for my high school yes I got it and that girl don’t eat her bones are showing

Que trsite ver eso en este escenario! Donde esta la inerpretacion?
Are we all in the age of Shakespeare?
Maybe it's weird but I'm not a fan of very high quality ballet videos. They don't add authenticity, instead the video looses a little bit of climate. Nobody sits that close to the actual performance in an opera to see muscles twitching or tiny balance loosing. It distracts from what's important here, I had to watch this video twice to capture just how good the choreography and the dancers are.

Looks like the version of igor zelensky and yulia makhalina
xDDDDDDD
I like this offering very much. He is a very relaxed dancer with a lightness to his spirit and movements. I do think he should work on projecting more masculine energy and conveying more interest in her. I enjoyed her very much too and feel she does a nice job portraying both the hard-edged seductress - and using her eyes well for that - and mixing it up with her languid lay-backs onto him. Please get a re-fitting on the "tail" of the tutu. No matter how slender or cute your bottom, I don't want to see your glutes. It's neither classical, nor sexy, just distracting.
timur please go back to baku leaving your undeserved place free for some really good dancer as latypov ivkin popov and others ,and possibily bring with you oxana skorik.
he always gives the most clueless interpretation without any accentuation in every variation he's in. no deserving soloist. but could be the best in baku.
imo he would be not the best also in baku
my comment was not satisfacted ,timur is still here ,laty ,popov ,ivkin left
Kandaurova does a better work than this, but is also great!

Rue and mute.😂🔫 princess tutu fans here?
As far as i know, princess tutu was actually based on swan lake. but in reverse offcourse

Rue and Mytho were the best.
