- Continuing our exploration of the history of ballet, former Principal with The Royal Ballet, Johan Kobborg introduces the style of August Bournonville in rehearsal with Artist Marcelino Sambé. With former ballet mistress Ursula Hageli and pianist Tim Qualtrough.
I'm just floored! Marcelino Sambé picked up Bournonville's technique so quickly! Johan Kobborg is a fantastic teacher! It's a pity that not everyone has such good teachers. Johan taught several simple techniques in less than ten minutes! Kudos to Marcelino who is a quick learner! Fantastic work! Keep it up!
There really is no such thing as "Bournonville style". For a very, very
long time he has been credited with the creation of, or at the very
least with the perfection of, a style of dancing that really was not
created by him at all. The so-called "Bournonville" style is the French
style of classical ballet without the Italian influence. Russian ballet
is to a large extent the morphing together of the French & Italian
schools. Although Bournonville certainly codified & perfected the
teaching methods of the french style, he by no means invented it.
From the point-of-view of Bournonville's ballets & in particular of
his choreography, there really isn't anything special about him. He was a
provincial ballet master not unlike many of the scores of other ballet
masters in his day who were employed at the great opera houses &
theatrical schools of Europe. But unlike many if not all of his
contemporaries, August Bournonville's choreography & even many of
his works managed to survive merely as a result of the roll of the
historic dice.
When Pierre Lacotte staged his truncated, nothing-to-do-with-Petipa
production of "The Pharaoh's Daughter" at the Bolshoi in 2000, dancers
& audiences alike referred to the choreography as "looking like
Bournonville". Lacotte simply employed the more intricate footwork, less
"jumpy" or heavily reliant upon "ballon" style of dancing as he had
learned from his own teachers, in particular the great Lyubov Egorova.
Johann Kobborg is so SMART! It's like he can almost read Mr Sambe's mind, and he can tell so quickly where there's an issue and where to hone in, and is so articulate in explaining it. And what a lovely sense of humour. :-) This is just a simple coaching session without even any music until the end, and it's so exciting!
Wonderful. I was left wanting to watch a whole class worth of his coaching!
MsVaughn75 me too, I'd watch a full rehearsal. So interesting to see the impact a few slight adjustments make.
I enjoyed the coaching..could have listened to it on and on. The Bournonville style seems
hard when you have been learning a lot more Russian approach; but I think it is very
agreeable. Of course, Johan Kobborg is a wonderful artist to teach it.
love the comments of the coach. great artistic integrity.
So very clear now as to how the Bournonville style evolved and how it differs from other styles. Fabulous!
lovely coaching

Was interested in Bournonville historically and was happy to find this video.
I love Johan Kobborg, he's my favourite male ballet dancer ever. Great to see him here, wish we could see more of him coaching
This series was expertly crafted
Johan ! Such personality what a gift he start choreographing!!
Marcelino is so adorable!!! I love him!!!
Bournonville is awesome! We did a few variations last year, their bourres are super weird though.
+CurlyQue415 The bourrées are? In what way?
I really, really loved this. Quite a contrast from Russian style I am used to :)
I wish it could've gone on a little more.
Love Bournonville's Conservatory and La Sylphide..
Marcelino is REALLLYY REALLLY HOT and hes a GREAT dancer
Amen

Força, Marcelino! Tens que fazer sucesso aí e trazer-nos orgulho.
Amazing! Very interesting! Thank you!
Can you post more videos of Marcelino, please ?THANKS !
thanks frederico bom ano novo
Is Bournonville style the reason Johan Kobborg has that amazing sturdy-looking core?
I love what I have seen of this style!
+Bron Stormborn I am sure that Johan has a gorgeous body and ridiculous core strength but it appears he is wearing a back brace under his shirt? I believe he was nursing an injury at the time.
"Bron Stormborn" - LOL!! You def get the award for best handle!! LOL!

mrlopez2681 Ahhh! Thank you for this information!
YES it seems very "butch" if that is a good way to put it . I love it
Please, more male ballet videos.
janteloven shining through
But in a good way .
Is this anywhere complete and not in small videos?
The Danish technique seems much more stoic.. more... husky but in a soft way.. if that makes any scence .
this dancer looks like Fernando Bujones
Yaaasss he was born that way cause Lady Gaga had just dropped her iconic legendary album and title track, Born This Way, the impact

Rien à voir avec les russes. Passez votre tour.
the artist is better than the master...
Everyone gets older. Not everyone evolves into a good teacher.
