Wow! I’m a fan of the Bouder version, but Teresa Reichlan really brings a “floating” quality to the piece. I really love how these highly skilled ballerinas make the choreography their own.
TchaiPDD is always a fave. The music and the choreography are so perfectly matched that it's exhilarating from start to finish. Thanks for streaming this for us. Loved it.
exhausting....just watching them.......ballet is such a beautiful art........always amazed of these talented dancers and what they can do with their bodies
I remember the Traceys, Kathleen and Margaret. Kathleen lived in my building in Lincoln Square. Margaret was a principal but left the company for the Boston Ballet. Jonathan Stafford is now one of the heads of the company, but was then a ballet master. Impressive how they are able to spot small imperfections - they really know this important Balanchine ballet, much exported to foreign companies - Russia, Royal Ballet.
For those saying it looks heavy and inelegant, please remember that this is still rehearsal. Thank you Kennedy Center for uploading live rehearsals - they're so fun to watch!
heavy and inelegant? why don’t you go give it a try? This is amazing, I always enjoy the rehearsal more with no makeup costume, just focusing on the movements. This is so good.
watching this makes me think of the stories I read about the dancers trashing a room in DC and the trouble brought on by the male dancers while here..THEN SEEING CHASE in the background, knowing this is when they were ...well causing such heartache to others..
Thank you so much, NYCB, for this stunning insight! I’m loving every second! Tess & Zachary are glorious talents- and excellent ballet masters’ notes...such a pleasure to watch this rehearsal! Thank you for doing these- I still frequent the “Tarantella” rehearsal video from last year. 👏
Actually, Stafford is a blithering idiot and his comments usually completely moronic. Worst choice they could have made for a new AD--even worse than Whelan and her PC prudery!
Viollette Verdi’ I miss you. Janet Sassoon. Anthony dowell you are coaching so well remember when you were in San Francisco. And I had the great pleasure and honor coaching you and Makarova
Jessica Puma I think that entire thing was a tragedy for male ballet dancers/male professionals as a whole. This radicalism metoo “movement” (tragedy) must stop. It’s only putting women further behind. Men in the professional realm (outside ballet I’m referring to) are afraid to hire me because I’m seen as a potential liability & this is the case for many women. And the sad thing is: I do not blame them. Men behaving as men is nothing new, we’d learned ways to cope/disassociate ourselves from the “fraternization” and now we’re back at fighting for employment & thinking we’ve won? We (women) have won nothing. 3 talented young men have had their careers destroyed in the meantime & it’s tragic. I assure you the majority of NYCB women relying on these tall, reliable, partners within the company agree with this sentiment. I send my love to you all; devastating loss you all suffered. 🙏☮️❤️
@@katiefulton9456 A "tragedy for MALE ballet dancers"??? I read that the nude photos and videos that were passed around were of woman. "Men behaving as men"? You've got to be kidding me. Is that the way you'd like your husband, brother, son to behave to woman? If this had been done at any other type of Company (outside of ballet) there would be repercussions. As there very well should be. The actual "tragedy" is that it happened at all.
Uma bailarina tão linda e desse nível com todos os arebesques abertos. Todos como dizemos ficaram "a la sebesque". Ela é linda, mas roubar na técnica não dá! E o ângulo da câmera só mostrou mais o problema.
There is a distinct difference in the way Americans do ballet and the way Europeans practice the art. Americans are more like athletes and cheerleaders. The intensity and temperament are there but subtlety and refinement have all but been thrown out of the window....which is OK. It is the American way. Americans have been socialized for hundreds of years. Europeans for thousands of years. Each produces a different cultural outcome. One isn't better than the other....just different. each can learn from the other.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to watch lovely NYC ballet rehearsal.
I think NYC ballet is the world's best.

Beautiful...... Thank you.
I love Mr. Balanchine's pieces. Please come to perform here in Japan.

Very nice,I love the ballet.
Enchanting!
love this piece
Thanks. Great privilege. Great dancing. Thanks.
Oh Violette how missed you are. (Verdy)
Yes, I saw Chase Findley sitting on the floor, upstage left corner, thought it was Catazaro who was also involved in that mess....too bad.
Kathleen Tracey was an absolutely gorgeous Lilac Fairy in her ballerina days!
She was a great Liberty Bell in Stars and Stripes also!

Love Tess! 😍
The male dancer's really good. Graceful and strong.
yes
Sad that she's retiring.
It's such a shame the camera was on the side throughout. The angle isn't favourable for the dancers.
This guy with the funny looking feet, just got fired.
Yes. Makes me sad if he really was involved in all that, though he claima otherwise. I wonder what his options are. Any thoughts?
@@oFwaih He may be gone for a little while, but there are other companies once it all blows over, and he does have the SAB pedigree.
He was just in a movie called the nutcracker and the four realm's dancing with Misty Copeland it kinda had a sexualized energy while they were dancing

Someone needs to work on the hipster dude's feet. They're unfinished, and they look odd, especially when he runs at the beginning.
He's Done, He got fired from NYCB for being a creep
He's surprisingly terrible all around.
