- No ballet lover can miss seeing this beautiful SWAN LAKE ballet with the most incredible ballet dancers, Margot Fonteyn, a legendary British ballerina, and Rudolf Nureyev, the greatest Russian - born ballet dancer of the last century.
Perhaps the most famous ballet video ever released, this version of Tchaikovsky's beloved work
stars one of the most famous classical dance partnerships of all time, Rudolf Nureyev and
Margot Fonteyn. Nureyev choreographed this production for the Vienna State Opera Ballet.
Ballet authority John Lanchbery, former music director of the Sadler's
Wells and Royal Ballet companies, American Ballet Theatre, and Australian Ballet conduct the Vienna Symphony Orchestra in Tchaikovsky's enchanting score.
SWAN LAKE is a classical ballet composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, a Russian composer, that tells the story of Prince Siegfried, who falls in love with Odette, a beautiful woman cursed to live as a swan during the day, and their struggle against the evil sorcerer Rothbart. The ballet features iconic dance sequences and a memorable score and explores love, betrayal, and redemption themes.

Fonteyn and Nureyev made history and blew open all the locked doors to aspiring dancers who wanted, wished for, and dreamed of becoming prima ballerinas and premier danseurs. It was the hand of God that brought them together.
I had the great fortune to see Nureyev and Fontaine dance this very ballet at the Met in New York in the 1960s. I was little more than a child, and It is burned into my memory as though I were 9 again and very sad that Odette lost her love. I was already a student, though I became too tall in later years and had too many curves to suit a Balanchine ideal for a dancer. I've remained a fan of dancers beyond count. I particularly applaud Misti Copeland for blazing a trail for dancers who don't have the "right" body type for ballet. She is enchanting., Aurelie Dupont, Misha of course whom I know personally, Monica Mason- the list goes on and for every principal dancer there are a thousand who are blessed to reach the corps de ballet and are not chosen to "move up" within ballet's more competitive side. Ah to be young again and able to dance. Brava!
A coupling made in heaven. They complement each other so well, and you believe the story they are telling. Many of today's dancers put technique over performance, which should include emotion without histrionics and hyper extensions, involving the slowing down of tempo to produce them. There is an intangible about Fonteyn and Nureyev. Everything they do seems so right, almost like the standard. Thank goodness for these recordings.
I absolutely agree with you! Thank you for being here and enjoying those recordings!🙏❤️
I think Rudolph and Margot the only divine couple of all times.None After Them.❤
@@mariaritapiergentili9030 could not be more agree with you! Thank you! 💖🙏
Fire and ice. They are Iceland.
Technique is better now because they redesigned the points shoe! And the materials used to protect the toes. Pointe shoes used to have a tiny box, which didn’t allow them to make the turns they do now. The shoes were redesigned with bigger boxes, more stable materials and dancers usually modify their shoes for best fit, comfort and flexibility.
Rudolf was just a force of nature. He was born to dance. She was also much older than he was. In her 40s when she danced here.
Lovely to see the magnificence of Fonteyn and Nureyev without the clatter of the audience. A masterpiece
Ive finally seen a person( Nureyev) turn time on a dime that has a chime! Kaching!
I’m very happy to have found this channel. I think there is too much emphasis today on technique and athleticism. Artistry is diminished in favour of hyper extensions etc which to my eyes are not always attractive. The partnership of Fonteyn and Nureyev was a “partnership made in heaven” to quote the English critic Mary Clarke. Certainly, the stars were aligned in that Nureyev came to the West at just the right time. Are there better technical dancers today? Of course, there were in his own day. Didn’t he say, “if you think I’m good, you should see Soloviev.” But he was the first, and for me the last. I’ve never seen a dancer like him and I doubt I ever will.
Чайковский-гений! Это шедевр классической музыки! Непревзойденный! Каждый раз слушая эту музыку, открываю для себя новые истины классики.❤
If you are meaning by hyper extensions, the vertical splits by ballerinas these days, I totally agree: I think that they are ugly. Some are more extended than vertical and to me they look horrible. Perhaps it was a good idea to extend that way to some extent, but it is tooooo far IMO!
Сколько раз смотрю и с каждым разом всё больше прекрасных нюансов открывается!
Спасибо большое, что есть записи спектаклей с Нуреевым!
Очень впечатляет, что на сцене работают все артисты - спектакль делает кордебалет! Очень музыкально всё, оркестр играет великолепно.
Glad you are liking it and continue enjoying it! Thank you for your comment! 🙏🩰❤️🦢
I could never tire of watching this. I hope someone uploads the Nutcracker ballet (full version) with Margot Fonteyn.

Большое спасибо за великолепное "Лебединое озеро" с Нуреевым и Фонтейн. Можно ли на вашем канале посмотреть "Сильфиду" и "Жизель" с Рудольфом Нуреевым и Карлой Фраччи?
Lost the sound at 1:39:18. But beautiful!
Me, too. I can hum what I think goes here but wonder if it's an outtake from a different score and there were copyright issues. I really like it when the person posting explains things like this.
absoutely exquisite. However, why isn't there no sound from 1:39.25 on wards for like 5 mins? Reupload?
Sorry about that! YT might take it down for copyright purposes. Thank you for pointing it out. Will let you know. 🙏❤️

Someone may be boiling with envy for the Italian poverty in this art.
Hi, how do I tell if there are Italian influence in Ballet? Like this one doesn't have any you mentioned.

A beautiful production in terms of scenery and expression, but how much the dancers' physical abilities have evolved since then. And Nureyev's choreography lacks the fire of the original version, especially in the dance of the black swan
Thank you for your comment! I do agree that physical ability has evolved, not only for ballet dancers but in a general way of living around the world. I am sure if Nureyev or any other dancers from that time were training in current requirements, they would be doing just as well as they did in their time. But remember that ballet is an art form where we connect on an emotional level, not only on the dancers' physical abilities. And that's why when we watch Fonteyn and Nureyev dancing, we experience those beautiful emotions!
Thank you for watching my posts!🙏🎵💖🩰
@@retrotheatretv I totally agree!
@@retrotheatretv I reconsidered what you wrote. And I looked again at Nureyev and Fontayn in this ballet and compared it to today's ballet performances. Today's top dancers have both artistic ability and expression. Take a look at Friedemann Vogel or Petra Conti, for example.
I definitely agree with you that Nureyev and Fontayn would have achieved the same skill level with the appropriate training. In any case, it's a pleasure to see the two dance. But I miss the fire of today's dancers.
I wish you a nice week !😊🍀🌞🌻🐞
Thank you for your comment!
I understand what you are saying! With all great young and extremely talented ballet performers nowadays, no one will have what the Fonteyn and Nureyev have had, the time of the last century with the uprising the ballet, the eastern world (young man from Soviet Union) collided with western world (older mature established western women), where they are both enhanced each other lives, though friendship, partnership, workmanship and brought all that to their emotional performances!
That what I see! 🙏
Hola, fuego o pasión no le falta, es la visión del coreógrafo, para mi.
Meanwhile America has Snoop Dogg and Diddy smh
If the prince thinks the swans are so beautiful, why does he want to KILL one?
To eat?
@@sedekiman824 He’s a frickin Prince! He doesn’t need to worry about where his next meal is coming from. He goes back to the castle, sits in his Royal dining chair, and servants bring his food. And you can bet he’s not eating swan!
Hunting was always a recreation of the aristocracy, as they possessed the land. And swan meat was reserved for royalty. This tradition survives in the fact that in the UK, all wild swans still belong to the crown.
