Renata Shakirova and David Zaleyev in the Act II Grand Pas de Deux of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, performed by the Mariinsky Ballet. Includes the famous "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy." I do not own anything!
Shakirova is an elegant dancer with so much intent.Her expressions are perfect. Her bourres so small, close together--astounding. Amazing all around!!!
@@anetanikolaeva1287 I like the version of Baryshnikov and Gelsey Kirkland in an old TV show, she is something else ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P6NCE9GlU7s.html
I really like this version of the ballet from the Mariinsky Theater, it is beautiful, magnificent, it has the most beautiful costumes, I am simply a romantic person.
It's like they're bragging about how they have so many talented dancers they don't know what to do with them anymore so they'll just throw them randomly on some number and hope it'll work out. 😂
Renata is an excellent dancer working hard for a brilliant future, however, she appears on the stage less than that in 2018. Would like to see her on the stage frequently in 2019.
I think they tried to build up the choreography to match the dramatic music. The climaxes are massive. In the traditional pas de deux there's just the two of them alone doing some staid supported turns and jumps "climaxing" into some rather pedestrian lifts with her sitting on his shoulder. Done right it's regal but it do not match the music in my opinion. I don't like this much better but at least they tried to punch it up a little.
Renata zakirova - Splended dancing as your pirouettes are spellbinding for sure! The precision appears as though you practiced in training with a gyroscope! I'm must ask you how long have you been with the kariisky company? A extremely broad ocean of congratulations would not be near enough! Thanks a million for the most beautiful ballet from St. Petersburg! Peter.
It is about five brothers and a sister (Tchaikovsky family). Grand Pas de Deux is dedicated to his sister Alexandra (Sasha) who died when Peter was composing Nutcracker (actually Nutcracker is totally dedicated to Alexandra) and originally it was not intended to be ballet. It is a VERY SAD Grand Pas de Deux (Peter said goodbye to his sister). Peter was broken and he dedicated this part to his sister Alexandra (Sasha). They were very close...
They are very good and I do like this version because it add more festivity feel to the music and story as well. Never mind if it reminds sleeping beauty or not since most every ballet is like one another anyways. However I like May Nagahisa and Vladimir Shakyirov (?) presentation much better for its precision and clean lines. And that include 4 extra cavaliers as well.
All the ballet prince are helping the ballet fairy out in the Nutcracker performance and the ballet prince in the white he's the main one to help this ballet fairy in the performance in the first place.
Die beste Zuckerfee die beste Choreografie und die schönsten Kostüme die ich je im Nussknacker gesehen habe ausserdem Perfekt getanzt ❤️💐💐💐 Ps ich bin auch dafür den alten Meistern nicht in die Choreografien reinzupfuschen. Aber hier wurde definitiv etwas an Schönheit erweitert und nicht weggenommen oder zerstöhrt.
This is an amazing performance! Where can I find the full version of this performance? I tried so many DVD's and music channels, but couldn't find the full version.
Eh. The technique was astounding but idk I’ve seen a lot of variations of this finale pas de deux all very different but this one isn’t touching me like most.
I am somewhat new to classical ballet. Is it the custom to applaud every time the principal dancers execute a fancy or complicated move, or is that type of interrupting applause only a European custom? The same question applies to the principal dancers bowing to the audience after their performance instead of continuing to go on with the ballet. I am more familiar with opera where, if the singer gets applause after a beautiful aria, the singer stays in character until the applause stops and then the opera just continues.
Рената Шакирова дествительно родилась для сцены посмотрите внимательно на ее лицо. Все остальные примы выглядят так как будто они делают отдолжение публике
No no..... Non sono d'accordo...Se pur bravissimi perfetti.. a me personalmente non mi è piaciuto che questo bellissimo pezzo fossero usati altri danzatori... Per piacere andate a vedere lo storico NUREYEV E LA MAYERS...... Il tutto è perfezione... I singoli movimenti della testa braccia gambe..... Ma li avete visti tutti bene!!!! ......
Даже божественная Рената не способна изгнать запах нафталина, которым разит эта древняя постановка Вайнонена. Толпа кавалеров ее лапает, а толку никакого.
