I like this choreography, it has a lot of charm and very fast and intricate footwork!

Ottimo questo balletto che contempla una mirabile fibrillazione dei passi sulle punte in eundo veloce della ballerina ed un impadroni mento totale dello spazio proscenico da parte del ballerino a balzi falcati ed a sforbiciate in salto frequentissime.Ottima impressione di facilità esecutiva d'acchito da parte di entrambi e di levità fluente fatta tensione elanista e motile sorprendente nella ballerina quasi avesse immiata l'euritmia melodica. Ottimo il senso del continuum dato alla pièce danzante.Superlativi.Bighin GIULIO RENZO 😊😊😊😊😊

Bournonville choreography with modern artists with great technique just shows how great it was. I can't imagine he saw such sparkle in his lifetime; but here his creative dream can come true.

I've always admired Heather Watts in the more modern works, such as Agon, The Cage, Calcium Light Night etc. Here this consummate artist shows she was equally at home in Romantic tutu ballets. Brilliant. Thank you for posting.

I remember seeing a wonderful rehearsal clip of Stanley working with Darci on this; it was part of the same telecast. Wonderful to see her in her prime here! Wish there were more videos! Anyone know what year this was? In the 80's sometime for sure.

I remember seeing this when it was danced back in the day, and I love rewatching the very nicely filmed recording. I'm shocked by people calling it "kitsch" or thinking that it's too speeded up. Bournonville IS fast. It's light, it's ballon, it flies. No one could have done a better job of staging it than Stanley Williams. As for the injuries, I think they were no worse in NYCB than in other companies--excepting perhaps for the sheer amount of performances done there. Many dancers performed just about 6 days a week in at least one ballet a night. As for Baryshnikov's problems, mentioned below, it's worth remembering that only a very short span of his career was spent with Balanchine--no more than a few years. I hardly think that Balanchine is to blame for that.

The great Stanley WIlliams, RIP and two brilliant dancers showing how you really dance Bournonville. Next year is Helgi's 30th at the head of the San Francisco Ballet!

This was all done by Stanley Williams. It met his approval. His approval is far more important to me. I will check with Kennet Oberly.

The speed and lightness and simplicity capture the Bournonville aesthetic so beautifully. I do wish the whole TV program were available; it was solely devoted to little excerpts from the Bournonville rep as danced by NYCB dancers.

This has however had the NYCB breakneck tempo and attack applied to the Bournonville technique. Look at the video of Cuni & Lund in the same PDD. Far slower, giving the dancer enough time to place both heels after each jump and take off again from a demi plie.
@kimmois112 жыл бұрын
Actually shiva has a point. Balanchine loved the Bournonville rep and technique, he poached many a male virtuoso from RDB including Anderson, what is suicidal for a dancer's body is that he sped up the Bournonville rep with his own technique and inflection, including his penchant for not placing heels on the ground after each jump. With this kind of multiple petit batterie the longterm effects are potentially hazardous, as Kistler's catalogue of horrific injuries proves.

To all those that call this, "Balanchine kitsch" you are out of your minds! Firstly this was staged by Stanley Williams, a Bournonville expert, and he would have never altered anything to suit Balanchine. Secondly, Balanchine was the ballet-master for a year for the Royal Danish Ballet after the death of Diaghilev, and it is clear in many Balanchine ballets. like, "Donizetti Variations," for one, that he owed a debt and respected greatly the Danish technique. He brought Stanley to his school!

The speed of this dance is definitely faster than usual so we have the feeling of dancer's feet seldom hitting the floor. After all, she is on the air most of the time. I think most dancers will slow down when they age. But there is nothing wrong for dancers to push the limit to fulfill their potentials while they are young. This combination of Stanley Williams/Darci Kistler/Ib Andersen was brilliantly done with speed, endurance, elegance and grace. There is nothing more we can ask from them.

As a student of Stanley's at the School of American Ballet, I learned many of the Bournonville ballets from him. He felt strongly the ballets had to reflect the generation in which they were being performed, He would adjust port de bras and such because he found some of it too old fashioned. Certainly this is debatable but I simply take offense at this being called Balanchine kitsch. Stanley had his views and they were reflected in his stagings, they were, after all, for City Ballet not the RDB.
