I once had an Anthropology professor tell us that she toured the world and danced ballet before settling down to finish her masters for Anthropology... and the way that she spoke was very similar to the way Ursula spoke. Very gentle and endearing... but brilliant! Her gentle voice carried such heavy knowledge! And I think that in itself is something like ballet: gentle, demure... but astonishingly expression and so very impressionable.
Just loooooove everything of the video, the teacher, the performers, the pianist! Sooo good, ROH is such a wonderful place to work for, having all these great people around, that will be my dream.
These wonderful, brilliant, hard-working dancers. Dragged around like puppets. Those fake smiles. So sad. Every single one of these dancers could be independent and wonderful artists, instead they just waltz around to the order of this old lady. No intention here to devalue the beauty of ballet, rather than uplifting these wonderful artists.
You can't actually see anything except an undefined bulge. Male dancers wear Dance Belts (similar to a jock strap but with more padding) to "hold everything in place" during those leaps and turns. So anything you think you're seeing is all in your imagination...
Because it undermines the pianist in front of the audience. Its like clicking at a waiter. Wanting it faster is fine, all she needed to do was say it and the pianist would have picked it up, she didn't need to specify the tempo by clapping.
Haylo17 actually it's quite common within a class setting for the teacher to mark out the tempo to an accompanist by clapping. His tempo was quick by normal class standards but not as quick as it would have been then.
Actually, clapping is the very best way of communicating to a musician exactly how fast you want something to be. Musicians are trained to fit in with sounds around them, especially in the rhythmic sense. Concision wins here.
It is awesome to see this presentations specialy with Marcelino Sambé. We are proud of your work Marcelino. Uge hug from Portugal.
I'm in a coffee shop watching this, and I was about to applaud loudly hahaha. Had to contain myself! Great work!!
we really need more Ballet Evolved videos!!They are great!!Maybe we could have like Royal Ballet history, with Ashton and Macmillan!!!

I have a low key crush on marcelino
She's the Steve Jobs of ballet.
and he's the Tom Jones of ballet!
When Marcelino did those turns, I got dizzy and fell over! Wow!

I love doing round de jambe á terre exercises. They're so graceful.
Marcelino Sambe straordinario e generoso. grazie
Marcello could get it.
Marci is a marvellous Dancer.
I love that the girls are in soft shoes!
A lot to learn.Civilisations have been busy learning and sharing.Some individuals busy doing nothing and some out only to destroy and destroy.
Mona, your not alone 💙💙💙💙
ROH, please credit Paul Stobart, the wonderful pianist.
Amazing. Thanks for sharing!
The Male Lead Dancer Marcelino is a contender for the Nureyev ''Ballet Belt'' Award... :)

Lel I feel a little bit awkward cause with the male dancers you can see EVERYTHING
See what?

@@Ltb0904 Not in this case I don't think...... and Nureyev was ''all him''....there are naked photographs and that ain't padding.
It was a lil bit distracting for sure, but you can't help admiring the muscle definitions.
Omg never clap at the pianist its remarkably rude
Why not?
Because it undermines the pianist in front of the audience. Its like clicking at a waiter. Wanting it faster is fine, all she needed to do was say it and the pianist would have picked it up, she didn't need to specify the tempo by clapping.
Oh I thought you meant in the end when people were applauding her
