i love how every time eden says oh the letter o pops up the the screen editing is chefs kiss
LOL thank you!! 🤣🤣
It would also be fun for you guys to pick one ballet, and play the music in disorder and have to say what part of the ballet it's from.
THAT would be a blast 😅😅
Does it count if when you said "are you ready?" I practically shouted "HECK YEAH!"
I don't know any variations. I don't think I could even guess a ballet if you let me listen to an entire score, let alone name characters from it. But boy do I love watching ballet dancers do their incredible, amazing thing - and also watching you two try to make each other have a complete breakdown over variations. And also the subtitles/delightful additional text! And how could I forget you both desperately trying to sing your way through to a part of the music that will remind you of the piece's name? 🤣
Thank you, Jordan and Eden! Every video you make is such fun - and so informative for the non-ballet people watching! 🩰💖
edit: "Singing it with more passion won't make it correct!!!!" thanks now I'm actually crying with laughter, A+
Hahaha glad someone was as excited to play as we were 😂😂. Thanks for playing and laughing with us! We cried laughing too as we watched the playback lol. Thanks for your wonderful feedback 😄😄💕
Wow so hard! Male variations all seem to start with the same type of note progression. 5-10 seconds would give more of a clue. On a side note, where are the videos of the two of you dancing? Would love to see that. You two are so engaging!
What if that last one had a gong AND a chainsaw!! 😂❤🎉
Wow, this was hard, and I'm a guy. I got maybe 50% of it right. Congrats girls, your're smart.
50% is impressive! Thanks for playing along, hope you had fun! ☺️🙌🏻
THAT'S why the golden idol sounds so weird/unique... I've never been able to imagine what a 5/4 sounds like, now I'll always have a reference piece
Lol yeaaa it’s such a confusing piece to listen to unless you hear it in a 5 🤪 It is unique for sure! 😆🙌🏻
I'm one of those people who don't know these variations very well....
I enjoy seeing you ladies having fun with these games, but it just makes me realize how little I know about the details of so many ballets.
Please do some more of the blow-by-blow descriptions of some of these other ballets. You know, like you did with Swan Lake and Giselle. Please, please, please!
We hear your request!! There’s a lot out there, but we’d love to take it one ballet at a time with y’all ☺️🙌🏻. Always glad to hear y’all like those kinds of vids. Thanks for playing with us today!! ✨😄👏
I recognized only the Tchaikovsky pieces; and yeah, I agree that Siegfried's variation is surprisingly very soft. It's such a fun tribute to underrated male parts in ballet (;
(Btw, I love you use parts from Swan Lake in your video intro and outro (; )
Thanks for playing! Tchaikovsky is the BEST 🙌🏻🙌🏻
That Paquita one is so weird... it's a female variation as well
OMG please do Round 3!!! My little sister and I were playing along with you and having the time of our lives. These are such fun videos!!!
That is awesome!! We’re glad y’all had fun with us, and can’t wait to play again! Cheers to you both 🙌🏻🙌🏻😁😁
I just realised that golden idol is 5/4 literally yesterday! Nice to hear that others hear it too!
Male variations truly all sound the same with their introductory music (oom pah or trumpets blasting, just in different keys) so it’s so impressive that you two did so well. I’m like Eden - I knew the piece but had no idea where it’s from 😂
It would be interesting to try something in the middle of the variation! Or famous corps pieces?
Heeeeyyyy we’re on the same wavelength with the 5/4 thing! That’s a great idea for round 3, it’ll be hard, but all the more fun 😂. Thanks for playing with us today! 🙌🏻
I only recognized Franz's variation, which I'm at least glad of because I do know Coppélia very well. But my favorite part of this was learning about more ballets and variations I didn't know.
Great job!! Glad u played along and that u got to learn about some other fantastic variations 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Please do a version guessing the pas de deux and a version guessing the large corps de ballet number.
Oohhh that could be SO much fun 🤩 thanks for the suggestion!!
That was great fun but so hard! You really know your stuff. A few new to me though. I saw Carlos in Fille. Fantastic
Glad u had fun! Thanks for playing with us! Carlos Acosta is the best Colas in our opinion, so much character! ✨☺️
Your captioning is terrific (and so funny)! One of the best parts of your videos imo. Yay for doing so well on the male variations - I love this game.
Glad u enjoyed that! Thanks for playing with us! We had so much fun 😁🙌🏻
Swan Lake😉
😂😂
@@balletreign that was the variation I was thinking of from your oom PHA,but since they all sounded similar in the first second and I didn't get any of the others I`ll give myself 0 out of however many. Entertaining Video anyway❤
Me: ZERO. I'll keep listening. 😍
😂😂
You are soo good and soo creative! Very beautiful video (I think that Acteon's variation music's by Cesare Pugni) !😍
Thank you!! You’re correct about Pugni 😉 very good music!
I saw Romeo and Juliet on Friday and I was hoping you'd mention it! How do you feel about that ballet?
It’s a such a classic!! We hope you enjoyed yourself at the ballet 🩰❤️
Oh no im so bad at male variations 😂
Haha us too 😂. Let us know how many you got!
@@balletreign ya like none🤣🤣
Still a valid score! 😂 Thanks for playing!! 🤍✨
@@balletreign ❤️💜🤍
your channel is a great supplement for technical information on all the ballets i watch here on youtube!!👏👏👏
Aww such a great thing to hear!! We’re happy to help further your ballet knowledge 🙌🏻🙌🏻. Thanks for being here!!
You are amazing!❤
So are you!! Thank you! ❤️✨☺️
I love these guessing videos!!! ❤️
Yaaayy so do we!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I was so into the game that an add played and for the fist two seconds I was really trying to guess the variation 😂
This made us laugh so hard 🤣🤣
Thank you so much for not using a Golden Idol video with the blackface child servants. I know a few companies like Paris Opera's recent versions and Boston Ballet don't have the kids in blackface, but the Russian productions definitely still do it... Makarova's version just has the idol himself (look up Angel Corella doing Golden Idol, it's amazing)
And the musical edits were the conductor's choice with on the recording you played, that's why it's not the standard.
Haha, glad you enjoyed this version, and thanks for your insight into the musical aspect! 🙌🏻✨
@@balletreign ruclips.net/video/BrDjxDXno7s/видео.html here is the version with the kids in blackface, Paris Opera does a similar version with Nureyev's choreography, but they removed the makeup in 2016.
Fun fact-David Motta Soares, the idol in this video, is now in Germany and left the Bolshoi after the invasion :)
Well done ladies!
Thank you!! ✨✨
4:23 I thought its black pink Lets kill this love
This was fun! Watching the two of you do an amazing job of recognizing variations which you would not have danced yourselves is quite something!
I got zero correct which is not surprising. There are two that I have heard many times from watching Prix de Lausanne but I can never remember which ballets they belong to.
I've learned so much today, including the names of some ballets of which I have never heard, and I'm going to be looking all of them up!
17:39 I was hoping it would be the Carmen Overture but it's from Coppélia.
04:09 those splits!!
Thank you very much for the video! 🤩🩰🙏💐
So glad you had a good time!! This round was definitely more challenging but hopefully we made somebody laugh 😂. Thanks for playing with us!😁😁
@@balletreign 😁👏💐🌸🌺
You guys are the best! As a male ballet student i found your female variation one quite difficult. I am overjoyed that you did a male one a lot of people don't do a male version of most videos but you guys did. I am so grateful for it. Awesome vid by the way
So glad you enjoyed this one! 😄😄 thanks for such cheerful words, we are glad ur here ☺️🙌🏻
did you get them all?
@@oxoelfoxo most of them but some of them were quite challenging
You both are so insightful about music! ❤❤❤
Thanks!! So glad that you find it informative! ✨
13:15 my all time favorites are, for the women- The Rose Adagio from The Sleeping Beauty (Viviana Durante🌹) , for the men- The Spectre de la Rose ( Manuel Legris🌹) both, other-worldly!!!❤🔥
Sounds like you have a thing for roses lol🌹😂 but seriously, both are such stunning pieces and are definitely two of our faves too!!
you did great! i should have known a couple just from watching your past vids but i have no musical memory tsk
Haha thanks for playing!! We hope you had fun 😁😁
“Tour to the floor
Smack the floor
Ta-da!”
My new favorite 😂
🤣🤣
Loved the video with your comment
Glad you enjoyed 👍🏻💕
I got 7 😂
I can’t believe I didn’t get Acteon’s variation tho ☠️ I literally watched Yonah Acosta (principal dancer of the Cuban ballet) perform it live 2 weeks ago
Good job!! I can’t believe I didn’t get it either 😂
@@balletreign I did get Grand Pas Classique tho hahahah which was weird
I got 3 of the obvious ones plus GPC., so not too awful. What about doing the intrada part of aome gpdd and/or codas that these variatins all came from? Or well known soloist parts like the fairies in Cinderella, or character pieces like Widow Simone or the Chickens or any Jester part. Another great vid. You guys are so awesome!
Good job!!! Thanks for playing 🙌🏻. We appreciate your suggestions, we think that will be a ton of fun 😄👍🏻 glad u liked this video!
@@balletreign Would there be an issue with crediting the professional dancers {or even the kids competing}?
We will pass that on to our editing team thank you 👍🏻
Regarding time signatures, has there ever been anything that has involved a 2/4 time signature, even if it changes to 2/4 for part of the ballet
Yes! A lot of codas are in a 2/4 time 😁😁
@@balletreign That’s cool. I really like classical music and because of it I started to get fascinated with ballet a while ago, but there’s not many channels on RUclips like this; I’m actually learning a lot here and it’s fun watching. Are there any other irregular time signatures other than the 5/4?
11:15 ~ question! I thought that was the "Conrad" variation from Le Corsaire, but then again, I've only ever seen the modern Bolshoi versions, and the male principal is named "Conrad." ??
Great question! The male protagonist is indeed Conrad, but his servant/sidekick, Ali, is the one who performs this particular variation ☺️
@@balletreign Oohh thank you!
I hope you both know how much I love you guys but I’m sitting this one out: unless it’s Leonid Sarafanov, I’m not interested. Looking forward to next week’s video and have fun playing the game 🇧🇷🇵🇹🩰❤️
