I find it hilarious when some people say: her technique is not perfect, she need to clean it up, etc... HA HA! Do these people even know who this woman is?. Unfortunately that's just the representation of what's happening in the world of ballet, people think the best dancers are the ones with the best technique, the sleekest body and the highest extensions. Well, no. The truth is that the best dancers are the ones that DANCE best.
Noella Pontois was one of the greatest dancers I have ever seen. She was beautiful, had wonderful proportions and was supremely elegant. Her technique is completely at the service of her interpretation. I like the comment of shabaset - "simple, lumineuse et parfaite" - simple, radiant and perfect. David J. S. Gleaton
j'étais dans la salle lors de cette série, et je l'ai vue, l'incomparable et jamais égalée Pontois... simple, lumineuse et parfaite! ces représentations de Raymonda en 1983/84 restent mes plus fort souvenirs de danse : elles étaient tout simplement sublimes...
Back in 1988 she performed this at Teatro Regio in Turin with Fernando Bujones. I was one of the four pas de quatre chevaliers. Still remember her. Wonderful woman and dancer. Geeat memories never die. Pour toujours.
TheBallet1 Yes.. third act is Hungarian inspired, csardas, verbunk. This variation is often referred to as "Variation Hongroise" There is loose historical connection to Hungary in the "story" of Raymonda, a Hungarian king in XIII. century let the Crusaders to go through Hungary on their journey to the Holy Land.
Pour des générations de petites filles, qui ne le sont plus depuis longtemps, comme pour les danseurs d'aujourd'hui, Noëlla Pontois incarne la figure idéale de "l'étoile". Dans une scénographie signée Nathalie Crinière, Eléphant Paname (nouveau lieu dédié aux arts et à la danse) déroule à tous les étages la brillante biographie de cette grande dame discrète.
Each ballerina have their own artistry way of interpretation and no doubt she's a beautiful one. It's amazing to see this version with her, but also love Sylvie! and of course others. It's like a paint, but ballet just last the moment it's been dance, then we have to see it again to get the joy and beauty of it!!!
Ugh. Her stage presence is wonderfully impeccable. Lovely, and VERY difficult variation, but she's a talented enough dancer to make it through unscathed. and the applause just goes on and onnnnn
Merveilleuse Noella Pontois, qui fut l'une des partenaires préférées de Noureyev pendant plus de 10 ans... Elle raconte, avec beaucoup d'humilité, ses sentiments quand elle a dansé avec lui les premières fois... Sa peur d'être "dévorée"... par ce monstre sacré
Браво!Она великолепна,ее танец завораживает.Да, видно что танцовщица не молода, но это только придает своеобразие этому исполнению.Спасибо за эту версию,получил истинное наслаждение от просмотра.
Майя Плисецкая танцевала до 54 лет, Уланова тоже за 50, Дудинская за 50. Дудинская в Кировском театре танцевала с Нуреевым в 50 лет Лауренсию. Рудольфу Нурееву было 20 лет, а Дудинской 50 лет, на 30 лет старше, и была страсть на сцене, самая лучшая Лауренсия
Всё прекрасно. И постановка Нуреева правильная. Он прекрасный знаток балета, который учился не только русской хореографии, но и западной, в также восточной в Башкирии до Ленинграда. Не надо критиковать великого Нуреева и его прекрасную партнёршу
unfortunately some people think they know more than the best in the world, I say, this people think it is so easy to access that étoile category in P.O.B? is much impertinence to criticize a world star like Noella
Not the best technique I have ever seen, but she is certainly impressive and captivating. I believe we are spoiled as today technique is very seriously sought after making it difficult for a dancer to express individuality and artistry if they possess less then perfect technique. We are doing ourselves a very bad favour judging those dancers from the prism of today's standards. What mattered back then is hugely different and we need to understand that dancers were moulded differently in the past eras.
I would be interester to know what you mean by "her technique needs some clearing up". Do you know Noella Pontois was one of Nureyev's ballet partner? She wouldn't have been if she really need to clear up her technique. I don't care how long and where you dance, I think you can't really be a great dancer if you can't recognize a great ballerine like her...
Nureyev himself is known for less than perfect technique. So using her being his partner as clear and fireproof evidence of her qualities is not well grounded. And yes, Noella does not possess the best technique. Her strong parts lay elsewhere ...
@@balletshoes j read now your comment : for infos Noella Pontois has a fabulous technic , j listened some words in audience by professionnal dancers it's was in pdd Spartacus with Attlio Labis , you don't known ballet to write this
@@alainspiteri502 Je suis tout à fait en accord avec vous. Merci Monsieur ,de nous donner vos connaissances lors des commentaires. Vous possédez un grand savoir sur la Danse, ce qui n’est pas mon cas. 🎉.
Raymonda has been set on Hungarian character dance style. Hungarian doesn't mean angry! Noëlla Pontois doesn't dance anymore, however if she's teaching this variation this way, I suggest her to train at the Bolshoi, if they would ever let her learn. Of course I am considering she is interpreting Nureyev's choreography, which is also wrong from the music and the style point of view.
Laurent Guyot Sylvie Guillem wonderfull 18-25 years old but not after , J saw her in 19 guest by Kirov " Sleeping-Beauty at " Palais ds Congrès Paris , "Romeo-Juliette " at 19 years j can say : Guillem wonderfull very young ( mouvement-rythme-Étude Béjart ) but after 25 years old nothing . The last time j saw her GiselleTheatre Châtelet Paris very disappointing . You speak about Guillem because you don'y know ballet as many people on youtube
I still think she's not very fluid with her movements. She's got great focus and a clear presence, very clean too, but I still say she neeeds to work on fluency. But i guess that's her expression :)
V Disalvo : si vous aviez dit " Nathalia Bessermert Bolchoi 1989 " vous seriez un vrai balletomane en citant Guillem vous êtes un RUclipsr parmis des millions de RUclipsrs car seule Nathalia Bessermertnova est comparable à Noella Pontois la plus grande danseuse du monde à son Époque ( comme l'a dit Roland Petit dans l'un de ses interviews ) .

So true
nanushka I totally agree...
Mariska Khametovich Nureyev
That’s true !
what's wrong with her technique? it's all perfect along.
Magnifique ! Magnifique Noëlla Pontois, magnifique chorégraphie de Noureev.
Ma version préférée ! On ne verse jamais dans la démonstration technique et tout est poésie dans ses gestes.

Je n’ai jamais rien vu de plus beau. ❤
Wow! Superb! My favourite version of this variation. For me it has the right balance between elegance and drama. Lovely!
Блистательная Ноела Понту легендарной постановке Раймонды Рудольфа Нуреева!
Back in 1988 she performed this at Teatro Regio in Turin with Fernando Bujones. I was one of the four pas de quatre chevaliers. Still remember her. Wonderful woman and dancer. Geeat memories never die. Pour toujours.
Indeed! her musicality is perfect and powerful.
Великолепная НоеллаПонтуа!Утонченная, партнёрша Рудольф а Нуреева!
so regal and proud, with Hungarian czardas feeling, Pontois' Raymonda is sublime.

Красивая обаятельная женственная. Нурееву она нравилась. Это было заметно на репетиции на видео. Как он на неё смотрел, как улыбался.
perfect control of her body.. amazing!
Trés Magnifique!!!!
On ne se lasse pas de voir tant de légèreté, de beauté, de la part de Noëlla.

Можно было не делать акцент на возраст, неприлично Посмотрите все ее партии,в ТЧ и с РНуреевым

Noella a des pointes de "diamants", un équilibre hors du commun, j'ai toujours été fascinée par sa technique.

Très beau mais Sylvie Guillem est...incomparable
+1000
Sylvie looks/ dances like a goddess from another world in this variation.

Techniquement ! Mais pour moi, qui ne connait pas assez la danse, l’immense technique de Sylvie, que j’apprecie, me bloque. Amitiés ❤.

okay, her technique needs some clearing up. honestly, if your going to put another girl in her role, it'd be Sylvie Guillem all the way.
