- This is footage of Rudolph Nureyev and Karen Kain and of a second cast rehearsing Nureyev’s production of ‘The Sleeping Beauty' for the National Ballet of Canada.
The set designer for this production was to be Nicholas Georgiadis, who Nureyev had used on many enterprises.
What’s interesting for me in this video was hearing Nureyev and Kain discussing technical problems - using highly technical language, like when the ballerina says “if there’s too much yank, I can’t control my force”!
Enjoy!
Rudolf knew his art thoroughly,,,,,,,and it always showed....
Me encanta, verlo a Nureyev en su faceta profesional 🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰😊
Спасибо за такое редкое видео Гения Р.Нуреева!т
¡ Que buen maestro de ballet fue Rudolf! Impresionante, sacaba todo de ellos, hasta aquello que ellos pensaban que nunca podrían lograr...
un buen maestro duro y exigente
Волшебник!!!!!
nureyev dio della danza e della bellezza
Rudy ci hai lasciato troppo presto.....quanto avresti potuto dare ai giovani con i tuoi insegnamenti!!!
e nuove produzioni di balletto che avrebbe potuto realizzare
SUPER MASTER CLASS FROM THE SUPER STAR RUDOLPH NUEREEV INTO EVERY DETAIL.
I’m fascinated more by Nureyev trying to teach the men how to be noble & expressive, not only through upper body, but also explaining the suspense that can be created through placement & timing of the feet - don’t just do the steps - PERFORM them.
yes, that's the thing, performing them
Exactly!
Too bad Nureyev wasn't actually that great, with some very bizarre body technique on stage -- he started professional training far too late. Given the chance and excellent training, these men could have surpassed Nureyev; but he had to be the star. His timing was right. When he defected to the West, Western male dancers had not had the kind of training that produced the great Russian dancers.
I don’t really understand this kind of criticism. Think of all he achieved with only three years of classical training - the best classical training. Imagine what he might have become if he’d begun formal training at a young age. Yet despite, being a late starter, he changed the face of classical ballet. Other dancers, by his own admission, may have been more technically proficient but no one ever took the stage the way he did. No one has ever out performed him. He could stand still with his back to the audience and you couldn’t take your eyes off him. The way he moved on stage - just to see him walk - he owned the stage. He was a prince it was impossible to believe otherwise. I’ve never seen any other dancer who could do that. There is a whole lot more to dancing than technique.
Вы правильно все изъяснили.Согласна полностью! Нуреев такой -единственный и неповторимый!Браво Руди!Люблю обожаю спасибо тебе Рудольф Хаметович❤❤❤
Thank you so much. It's always great to see Rudy rehearse and teach.
he could be tough but would improve you as a dancer
Какой умничка!!! Какой Мастер!....
Me encantan tus vídeos John, son muy interesantes e instructivos. Me encantan todos los vídeos de Nureyev, mi bailarin favorito y para mí el mejor, un ser muyyyy especial.Muchas gracias por mostrarlos. Todo un placer
Es un placer para mí compartir, sí, Nureyev era un gran bailarín, una leyenda. tuve la suerte de haberlo visto mucho en el escenario
@@JohnRaymondHall ¡ Qué suerte! Yo sólo lo vi bailar con Msrgot Fonteyn una vez, aunque tengo todos ballets que están venta. Pero por ejemplo, me hubiera gustado mucho verle bailar La Balladere, Apolo Musageta y La Canción del compañero errante,, pero no se venden en ningún sitio. Saludos,
@@isabeldiezlangre9411 sí, tuve la suerte de haberlo visto tanto como lo hice, su acercamiento a Apollo Musagete era nuevo, lo cual creo que puedes ver en los videos que tratan sobre él.
@@JohnRaymondHall Si he visto pequeños fragmento de su Apolo Musageta, pero me gustaría verlo entero. Clive Barnes, un crítico de ballet, dijo que hizo una actuación maravillosa de Apolo, en Londres, con una gran expresividad. Rudolf era muy buen actor y transmitía perfectamente sus sentimientos. Saludos, y gracias por tus videos
Nureyev showed some expressive gestures to the young man.
i gues some things just stay with you :)
МАСТЕР!,!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
wish it lasted longer....
me too!
Great video John!, I love to see Rudy rehearsing, many thanks for sharing it!
i love watching rehearsal film - you learn so much about nuances of movement and expression
Nureyev maravilhoso
Большое спасибо за Руди
Love this, thank you very much!
Thank you for sharing
pleasure - i liked putting this upload together :)
Dear Alex, really interesting are the videos with reherseal of the ballets, the comment of the dancers, their grimace of effort.They are very happy when it comes to Rudy, of which i am a big fan, especially for his contribution to more popularity in the classic ballet in the west
i am very fond of rehearsals too - you have insights into the difficulties and the way things are worked out between the dancers that you don't see in performance. i am a big Rudi fan- and saw hi a lot on stage, particularly in London in the 1970s. he made ballet popular to w much wider audience than it had had. like a pop star!!
lol, yes....Bruhn is his old "chum", of course
I love Karen Kain!!! She’s 1 of my favorite Giselles!!! ❤️💙😘
one of mine too! ❤️💙😘❤️💙😘 - i must put some of her Giselle up on my channel! :)

Спасибо Джон за фильм о Нурееве Рудольфе Хаметовичу
Не за что :)
fantastic
Was lucky enough to see Karen Kain in Giselle partnerd by Frank Augustyn at the Coliseum
me too but augustyn was so so imho .at that time schauffus was the main attraction
so fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is wonderful! Is it part of a longer film?
yes, part of a documentary - this is all of the rehearsal footage there :)
Nureyev,Bruhn e Karen
he loosk sometimes disappointed from dancers
Does anyone know where the old National Ballet of Canada studios are?
What year was this?
1986
Thanks for the reply, John Hall. I am surprised this was from 1986; I thought it would have been somewhat earlier....didn't Erik Bruhn die in 1986? I suppose you could say he doesn't look so great in this footage.
pleasure Ruby. yes of course you are right - Bruhn died in 1986 - so the footage must have shot some time before the documentary was made-released in 1986
This clip is part of a longer documentary, "Bold Steps: The National Ballet of Canada", which was released in 1986.
As to when the rehearsals in the film actually took place: The film follows the National Ballet's rehearsals for a gala event featuring Baryshnikov, Nureyev's appearance in The Sleeping Beauty, and a new production of La Bayadere. All of those gala events took place in mid-1984, so this footage of the rehearsals is from late 1983 or early 1984. Some time between when Bruhn began his directorship in July 1983 and the opening night of Nureyev in The Sleeping Beauty in May 1984.
