I probably watched it over 500 times. Alina IS Giselle. So fragile and innocent in first part, and so weightless and loyal in second part. Amazing and unmatched performance. Ms Nunez is great Myrtha perfect, cold and menacing.
Johann and Alina - oh the Royal Ballet was BLESSED to import this Romanian & this Danish man ! Reminiscent of the magic of Fonteyn & Nureyev. The true stars have that charismatic musicality which is exquisite to watch!!
MY GOODNESS, I think my heart stopped watching these two!!!! I have seen many Giselles over time, and this is with out a doubt...., this is miraculous!!!!!!!!!
Ottima la fibrillazione dei passi sulle punte in eundo della ballerina e la fluente e flessuosa levità fatta tensione motile ed elanista sorprendente. Ottimo quello che con un mio neologismo mi piace chiamare convolo aereo ed elanista della ballerina ottimamente indotto e tenuto dal partner. Ottime altresì le pose figurali assunte nel balletto d'ensemble. Ottimo il senso del continuum dato alla pièce danzante.Molto bravi. BIGHIN GIULIO RENZO 😊😊
one of the best dancers ever at covent garden and marinella nunez as queen of the willis has also become a legend both wonderfull in thier own ways. She is like a feather and no over acting. A pure delight to watch. He is lovely as well they are great together on and off stage a lovely couple.
A earthy Giselle. Not much depth. A beautiful dancer. Perhaps Aurora or Swanilda . Of course this is on film and you miss things. Ballet is an ephemeral art .
