Also, it's clear that Christopher is a very strict ballet master and demands only the very best, yet he's never disrespectful towards the dancers. That's a great thing to see.
That’s a very good teacher cause the dancers will be better without feeling defeated or frustrated. the dancers will strive for almost perfection because of his strictness.
The pianist sounds absolutely wonderful. He’s a treat in of itself.
The pianist needs his own shoutout❤️
I love when I come to these videos ostensibly about ballet and find people saluting the pianists. They DO deserve great praise.
IKR it takes a lot to repeat the piece over and over and each time play just as wonderfully, and to refrain from speeding up just from sheer enthusiasm.
So great to see Myara here. I've been following her since the Pris de Lausanne. She always performs with such joy, wonderful :)
Same here. I was so happy having been able to watch her in a soloist role at last!!!!!
I love how all the comments are all love comments not hate comments. Also, these dancers are so beautiful and are really good. Chris is such a great choreographer and Craig is a wonderful pianist.
My God, The Royal Ballet is pure joy.
I'm glad to finally see Mayara Magri in rehearsal! I'm sure it isn't easy to rehearse in front of an audience, but she did very well. I've been following Mayara since the Prix de Lausanne and from the first time I have this strong impression she's got that something special, even though she isn't perfect. Really hope to see her becoming a principal soon!
Me too! I agree that she's not perfect, mostly with her arms, but she's got that 'angel' in her presence and already a very high technical level and a natural musicality. All these can only lead to a Principal Dancer.
The mark of a truly great instructor, is when they say do something over again, and you’re happy to do it.
The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. Stunning beauty!
Thank you Christopher and amazing dancers for these wonderful insights! Keep them coming!
oml the person coughing is really triggering my flight or fight
Love it. They work so hard. Amazing precision.
Mayara is gorgeous; so lyrical and her musicality is wonderful. She's very watchable.
Was lucky enough to see Mayara in Coppelia last December. She was magical!!
Mayara Magri has quickly become one of my absolute favourite dancers! I just adore her 💗
Mayara is stunning truly beautiful to watch.
who doesn’t? look at how beautiful she is, I mean... her emotion reminds me of marianela...
i remember watching all of her YAGP and prix de lausanne videos a couple of years back...i had no idea that she ended up here!!
Ballet Fan she is brazilian (ela é brasileira)
Exact same here! Mayara's musicality and delicate strength have me mesmerized, thus, continually revisiting her RB live rehearsals...adore her in classical roles just as much as I love her in McGregor/Wheeldon works...a rare talent indeed! Brava!
Absolutely wonderful. Mayara is really living up to the amazing potential that we all saw in her when she won Prix de Lausanne. And Tierney has a wonderful amplitude and clarity to her dancing as well. It's very moving to watching them work so hard and so beautifully. Also it's cute to hear Mayara with her lovely British accent! Beatriz is lovely as always.
Looks like Mayara Magri really has gotten the admiration of the audience, and it's well deserved. She's one of my favorite dancers too and wish to watch her new promotion as well.
Saw her dance in Coppelia - she was BRILLIANT!!
Today she is first ballerina
@@nicolly3346 she's just been appointed principal beginning next season!!!!
It I s so wonderful to hear corrections for arns and hands.
And such great corrections
Wow, just in the first few seconds of the dance the director noticed so many minuscule errors. Such attention to detail and SO much more is involved in dance than meets the eye!! This is fantastic. Huge respect to any dancer.
Tierney has such beautiful proportions.
"Doing something that keeps you alive, can also help you dance" referring to breathing...lol
Ever since I got the role of Clara I have been watching other people's nutcracker's.
Mayara is SO incredible❤️ BRAZIL🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I remember seeing Mayara on television when she was still a teenager. The tv networks here in Brazil all praised her for being one of the country's rising stars. It's incredible to see how much she's improved - she still has a bright future ahead!
Beatriz is a rare talent. She is just gorgeous.. Beautiful lines, strong technique.. Love her.
Yes ! And my favorite Alice in that Christopher Wheeldon rehearsal.
I find watching rehearsals and classes more interesting than watching the actual ballet.
When she almost ran over that lady at 21:06 i screamed Lmaoooo 😂😂😂
Fumi is just so graceful and breathtaking...
Oh how I love these videos. I am a middle aged oncology nurse living in a gritty American city with two sons struggling with mental health and substance abuse issues. Watching the glorious artistry of the RB transports me into a world of beauty. Thank You.
Ballet is a therapy for sure. Keep up with it!!!!
Karen Katz, that’s why the Arts are so important. God Bless you, and all the people you serve each day. I hope the best for you and your sons in the future.👩👦👦♥️
Karen Katz - Lovely sentiment. I’m in a similar situation & this really puts you in a calm frame of mind.❤️
I can relate. My sons struggle too. Some days are very difficult and watching beautiful ballet can be transporting. I hope your sons are doing better now. ❤️
It's a couple years but I hope you and your family have had good health and a happy life. Someone in England wishing you well 🌹
Btw, I'd absolutely HATE having to rehearse in front of an audience (both small in studio, and large on the internet), and have to stand there to be corrected in front of all those eyes. I cannot fathom how they manage it. It would unnerve me greatly. I know they're used to an audience, but not during rehearsal.
same here
Musicians have it the same in masterclasses or interpretations. It’s very nerve wracking and you do feel incredibly judged by everyone, but you often learn faster and you get the reaction from the audience immediately, so there’s reward for the hard work, also for dancers
MsBabbi When I used to dance, auditioning was super scary, but also kind of exciting. I don't know if it would be the same after getting the role, but still having to perfect it in front of an audience. It seems the reward would be during the actual performance rather than during rehearsal. Regardless, they have to have nerves of steel!
SmittenKitten when you get applause from the audience or praise by the teacher, that’s reward, even if it’s in rehearsal. You remember what you get credit for or when you’re scolded and that’s what you bring to the performance later
MsBabbi Oh, I totally agree about it being rewarding when an instructor praises you, it's the corrections that would be somewhat daunting to take in front of an audience! I never minded being corrected (as it helps you become better), but corrections in front of an audience would have been quite difficult for me. As you understand, the actual performances are the culmination of countless hours working, correcting, blocking, etc., which the audience is generally not privy to, and to have them see a glimpse of it is great for them, but could be difficult for the performer, at least during said situations. I'm sure some performers really thrive on that sort of energy, but for those that don't (which I'd wager would be a greater number than those who DO enjoy it), it would be irritating.
I noticed that I didn't mention in my first comment how wonderful Beatriz Stix-Brunell is. I really love her... Hopefully she will become a principal soon :)
I love christopher. He is kind and caring, but also disciplinary
I feel like Mayara will be promoted to Principal very soon. She has that leading lady quality, and she's improving each time I see her. I'm so proud of her!
And you were right!!! I am so glad for her
My brother-in-law used to be a répétiteur for the Royal Ballet at White Lodge. I never had the opportunity to see or listen to him in that role, but I do know how fantastic he was at playing piano and he would just sit down and "rattle off" all styles of music at the drop of a hat. Brilliant.
Christopher Saunders is always so wonderful! So are the dancers, of course! I was there virtually while it was live and definitely going to rewatch it again!
It's June, I don't care. I love Nutcracker-It's a need for me.
they're both beautiful in sweat!
Watching this makes me realize, yet again, how much I miss Beatriz. She is such a beautiful ballerina. I'm so happy for her that she is enjoying her time at Stanford University but, from a selfish point of view, ballet life has never been quite the same without her!
I'm glad I'm not the only one 🥹❤️
Mayara sempre se superando ♡♡♡♡♡ Maravilhosa mesmo!!!!!!
So proud of Mayara! A beautiful brazilian dancer, she's got a bright career ahead of her
Never in doubt! She was amazing in Coppelia - a brilliant dancer!
Mayara Magri is so fast!!!! She is incredible!!!!! I love her!!!!!
Mayara is so amazing!!!! they both are truly artist, but I love Mayara dance!!!!
the pianists never get the true credit they deserve. i mean, sometimes but really! imagine being that talented and being able to jump in at any moment, playing such classical music so beautifully, able to adjust the tempo if needed.. takes many years of hard work and serious dedication. i did en pointe for several years, i started dancing at 2 or 3 in ballet & tap and man, i miss it. wish i pursued being a full time ballet student. i decided on college instead, lmao but i always was blown away by the pianists (when we had a live orchestra)
I love Tierney so much😍 she’s such a great dancer 💜
I LOVE those long uploads of rehearsals, but please some diversity, it must be like the 4th Nutcracker one.. more MacMillan? Hour(s) long reharseals for... Gamzatti 4th act variation? Onegin last pdd?? etc etc Plus, more Osipova and Nunez please
Claire Calvert will still be my favourite Rose Fairy though! Although Tierney and Mayara are fabulous!
They are both such exquisite dancers, and when he gives them these subtle corrections, it makes their dancing brilliant. It's very impressive to watch a rehearsal.
Ahh Tierney is just so good! 🌟
nossa brasileira arrasandooooo
MAYARA IS SO PRETTY, SO LOVELY, É NOIS BRASIL 🇧🇷💗🧚🏻♀️
I’m glad Chris is being strict with Mayara’s port de bras. She’s a lovely spirited dancer, and still needs to acquire the trademark understated elegant Royal Ballet port de bras.
Lovely coach, really nice! All I ever see is them screaming at their dancers, but this man is amazing, he gets the best out of them
10:15 ele parece ser um professor tão bom, mas ao mesmo tempo tão gente boa
Verdade. Eu percebi isso também Maria Eduarda. Mesmo eu não entendendo o inglês dá para perceber que ele sempre elogia e corrige.
One word: BEAUTIFUL! I love this!! Keep doing them Royal Opera House!
Brazil is so proud of Mayara Magri, like omg look where she is now
More Mayara Magri please!!!! She is exquisite. It has been great to see her journey from Prix de Lausanne to becoming a world-class dancer. She is a super star!
Excellent! He is a great coach and these two beautiful ladies completely understand the corrections. No egos. Just pure technicalities still allowing their own interpretations.
Orgulhoso!!! Esse é o sentimento!!!! Beautiful and dear Mayara Magri.
Honestly, Tierney´s "one by one" variation of the waltz of the flowers was INSANELY beautiful.
It's lovely to see Mayara dancing. I hope to see her becoming a principal yet.
Mayara Magri beautiful and Brazilian!! Amazing dancer!
Mayara Magri
I’m holding my breath during every one of their manèges. It’s nerve-wracking to watch.
you can't even describe Mayara's performance with words! Fantastic!
Loved it, as always 😍😍😍 but I can't help to laugh every time he says her name, to me it sounds like he is saying bitches hahahahaa 😂😂
53:11 Quick, leg it upstage left ! Christopher is firm and charming.
Could you please upload more videos in which Mayara appears? She's fantastic! Thanks ROH-
Love Christopher Saunders!
Eeep it's Zeb Soans! did recognise him, good to see him, & hope to see more of him
I get it with Tierney - he keeps telling her to not step under herself but she does have longer legs and when she travels to her full potential she runs out of room! I trained ballet for 20 years and am 5’11” - I NEVER had enough room for anything and none of my teachers understood that. When you dance in a group you get used to keeping yourself small and limiting your natural extension/traveling because you’ll stand out too much!
At 40:10 he says yes Beatrice and I genuinely thought he said yes bitch
well, after watching that i am going to have a big mac
I like how at 53:10 the dancers just bolted to get to the corner 🤣
leinse yah that was great! 🤣
it was great to see some of the rehearsals and behind the scenes, it's excellent to see that even the professionals get corrected quite a lot :)
Wow, incredible, beautiful Mayara!
He says he's "too old" to partner them, but how old is he?? He looks quite young and in great shape!
I understand there are four males, and I think he was actually referring to his age. I was merely complimenting him as I think he looks great for being so "old." ;)
Completely agree. If he's in his fifties, he looks fantastic; even if he were in his forties his age would belie him. Ballet seems like a fountain of youth for him!
Hi. I agree he does look good. I think he's healthy and vital looking. I'm a 54 year old dance teacher and I get mistaken for much younger. As a dance teacher I can relate to "feeling to old" to do certain things. Sometimes it's based on my desire to prevent injury. Another is that as much as I like to dance in order to be a good teacher I have to defer to the dancers and let them work. I don't have the burning desire to be in the spotlight per se and I'm "too old" to be the partner or the jumps, etc. BTW: I like your enthusiasm and curiosity for dance.
Chocolate Souljah What great insights. I do believe dance keeps people young: young at heart, and young at body. It's not only great physically, but really excellent for the brain, too. I'm so grateful you're passing along your skill. :)
He's 53
I love the differences between Maya and Tierney... both are splendid in their own way...yet each have their own sense of movement... while Mayara is like a ray of sunshine and warmth, Tierney has this glass like, almost icy like presence and quality to her movement...amazing. really... ❤❤❤
I want to play the piano like Craig!!!
You can hear just the slightest breath at 0:57
I do like the way Christopher works. There is another rehearsal video from last year, and though the guy is very knowledgeable I do not like the way he talks to the dancers.
I like the way he wants the dancers to relate to each other. Some ballet is technically perfect but so cold. A pas de deux is surely a mating ritual.
It’s 1am PST in Washington state. I’m in bed ... a perfect place to be watching these rehearsals. I love hearing the directions by the Director because I get a real sense of what the dancers are doing .... it puts me in their shoes.
it's incredible how you can't notice how much they sweat on stage
Absolutely wonderful. Christopher Saunders is so generous and precise with the dancers.
Mayaraaa ♥♥
I did it for 3 years strait it’s not to scary
Wow they work so hard to make it look beautiful and effortless for us... I will always be in awe of ballerinas 😊
I was not impressed. Sorry.
Mayara Magri😍😍😍😍😍
mayara fada
Mayara is really wonderful! I didn't know her before, but as she started to dance she immediately caught my eye. She has such a great expression and is dancing with the whole heart, despite the crazily hard choreography technically! Regarding the both dancers in the pas de deux (who are they? I didn't catch the names), it is not surprising for me that they get so many remarks from the teacher. I don't see them really feeling the music and what they dance.
What part are they playing in 16:40? cuz the music sounds like its Waltz of Snowflakes, but they dance differently in other ballet shows. Like here: ruclips.net/video/2DiL3p98ejE/видео.html
I just love ballet n especially the nutcracker,I hope one day to tho see a show, its so relaxing
They really did her bad in the thumbnail lmao rip
7:28 начало темы сисек) и там ещё дальше есть немного
