    What a treasure that she was caught on film, and we can still enjoy her beautiful dancing today. You could show me the most skilled dancer today, and I will prefer to watch a dancer that has less technical abilities but actual connection to her emotions! ❤ No wonder audiences of the late 19th and early 20th century were captived by her!

      agreed - technique, what ever you have, is just something to allow you to be expressive - that's only what matters :)

    Wonderful to see how she made the costume a part of the performance, as if it were a living partner. What a beautiful and expressive piece. 🌺

    Exquisite - her whole body is expressive. When she lifts a leg en avant, the movement is so simple yet lovely, the tears came to my eyes. It's as if she's moved by an inner spirit that transcends the boundaries of flesh.

    Thank you so much for this upload, John Hall. The quality of this video really makes it possible to understand why Pavlova was regarded as such a great artist. From other clips you've given us, I could believe the legend, but from this one I can feel it as well. Incomparable. A thousand thanks.

    I just named my newborn Chihuahua puppy Annabelle Pavlova in honor of her. I was born in New Zealand and our most famous dessert is also named in her honor the Pavlova, funny enough my good friend born in Belarus is adopting Annabelle, so she will know Russian and be our little ballerina puppy.

  • @voraciousreader3341
    @voraciousreader3341 3 года назад +2

    I think this is something one must get used to in order to find enjoyment in it. Interpretive dance tends to leave me cold, bc each seems to be a connected series of individual movements that seem to be made up by the dancer on the spot, and not truly choreographed. The dancer has in fact choreographed it, but one can easily see the dancers who have that gift and those who don’t, unfortunately.

      when she draws the 'petals' of her tutu up towards the end she is showing how flowers close their petals at night. this is a bit tricksy - and it's a pity she did not have better chore for some of her ballets
