Ah yes. I remember dancing the Fairy Godmother. ❤

I have done this ballet and was the boy in green (actually the boy in blue) and like all of Ashtons ballets the choreography is unbelievably demanding and exhausting. In another cast I did one of the Brown Couples (Junior Soloist at the time) and once again completely dead legs at the end. In saying that I adore his work. He always does what you do not expect to come next. The man was a genius no doubt,

Прекрасно!!!! 😊 От жизели просто взгляд не отвести..... Идеально! 😊😊😊😊😊😊

I’m sorry, I don’t get ballet

Beautiful Elizabeth Lee.

I love Eleanor!

I was employed at OBC that year. I was the stage carpenter and we took this ballet on tour. My TD had me build boxes to put the sets into for transport. It's one of my fondest memories while working at OBC.

Although parts are played a bit fast for my taste, this is still excellent overall! Would love to see this in person some day. Or better yet, one of Meyerbeer's operas!

For me this was a very stereotypical image of redneck Americans. Rough tough, shootin, kick ass, throw bales of hay and brandin misogyny. Claimin dames that in their mind are just droolin over their butchness. Not really a ballet, but more of a misguided statement. It doesn't quite work this side of the millennium.🤠 X 🩰✔

Amazing dancers. I could see the horses as they rode them!

This really helped!! So goad i found this. Ive been looking into taking belly dance classes for YEARS ❤

I’m in kentucky with my mom for the moment . We watch this and talk. Such a blessing. She’s 91 and this is what she does. Watches ballers and old musicals all night KZbin. Still sharp mind!! Thanks again for this!!!

Thanks man for uploading it❤❤

How wonderful it is that we can see this performance so many years later on YT ❤ It is truly a timeless masterpiece.

Best crop circle video out there

Despite video quality due to age, this is the best American dance/choreography I've seen. Christine Sarry is superb in this. Before I saw this, it was Martha Graham's "Appalachian Spring" that impressed me most.

Any clean recordings from this? Any quality still shots? There has to be an original clear clean recording to this! Brilliant! Inspiring in so many ways!

6:55

I don't mean to be rude, but they Dance far too Slow and without any high jumps and all the leg work close to the ground!!! Also the hat for the Guy is all Wrong!! I know, my mother's Uncle was 1 of 2 Commanders of the Persian Cossack Brigade (Bagher Khan)!! Bagher Khan and Sattar Khan, kept IRAN from being divided and also established the first Constitution for the country!! This is Not Lezgi from Azarbijan!! I don't know what this, so-called dance is!!

きれいだね〜🤍

Bravo

🤘 𝐩яⓞ𝓂𝓞Ş𝐦

Er - Constant Lambert?

That was spectacular!!! I've watched you dance...mumbledy-mumble years. You get better all the time. Love & blessings, Morwyn

What a ridiculous ballet. It’s just walking around the stage. Absurd.

I enjoyed the choreography much more than Appalachian Spring.

My high school.

Did Martha Graham collaborate with Ms. deMille?

Woww best Persian Dance ever 😍

I've seen 2 different crafts TR3B and I think it was a cargo one. it looked like a jumbo jet size. the sun hit the side of it in late afternoon is why I saw it at all. no wings and it spiraled through the air like a football would spin when thrown. TR3B was bigger than I expected. 250 to 300 ft point to point. I guess there's a bigger one 750 or 900 ft tip to tip. I can't verify that though

dude I just had something slow fly over and made no sounds I could hear, it had about 8 each red and white lights red would flash then white but slowly. I grabbed my Nochs and when I found it again it turned off the flashing lights, it turned facing North it was south headed, it turned and stopped now 2 white lights like headlights are facing my direction. I see strobes or flashing lights coming up behind the craft I was watching it only had those white headlights on. first one flashed all white then back to headlight looking lights. I'm flashing my bright led flashlight at them hoping a response but lights didn't change just steady white on both. after flashing my light I picked my Nochs up to my eyes and something whispered Hey in my ear and it had to be close cause you could almost feel them say Hey, in a half whisper low tone voice. freaked me out.

Feld smoking. Those were the days!!! Thanks for this. I'd love to make a podcast about Thomas. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss.

Ahhhh,the sublime Agnes DeMille!

It's shocking how hokey and shallow de Mille's dance elements are. I'm surprised there's not more butt-kicking and jug-swilling. There's a natural comedic lift to sections of Copland's tapestry, but they're not supposed to be Warner Brothers cartoons, right? The bow legged cowgirl character doesn't look naive, she looks physically handicapped and a little demented.

The show begins at 2:30

Even back then they couldn't perform together in sync.

2:29 props to the tuba player!

I've always wanted to see the ballet made to this music. How I wish the whole thing were available. And what a shame we no longer have on PBS the wonderful "Dance in America" series. They seem to have dumbed down their whole "culture" (Ballet, opera, symphony concerts, vocal recitals) to stupid Mo-Town reunions, and such nostalgic junk.

Wow

From an Eastern Kentucky Muddy Branch coal miner to a ballet dancer to a ballet teacher to John-Boy Walton to a Hallmark actor this world has gone to libtard hell...lol

Who needs horses when you have a corps of dancers like this? Absolutely fabulous!

I've been reading about the creation of this ballet in Howard Pollack's bio of Copland, and it's absolutely thrilling to see this scene and to see Agnes de Mille inverviewed about Rodeo ~ chills!

This is a wonderful realization of Meyerbeer's great score by Frederick Ashton and the ABT. Also nobody's gloves fell off while skating so Adrian Monk can watch this without getting upset.

Fracci and Bruhn dance it the way it should be: folk dances. Thank you Mr. Coll!

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!

Это божественно! Карла просто идеальна для этой роли! Будем помнить тебя,прекрасная Жизель!

This video of one of Chopin's most beautiful waltzes choreographed excellently by Michael Fokine and danced splendidly by American Ballet Theater's artistes on their maiden show in 1973 is a precious and memorable piece of art. Bravo to all alrtistes and to Mr David Coll for posting this on KZbin for ballet lovers all over the world.

Fracci and Bruhn !!!!!!!!!!!!!But this horror of Camera no. no. no!
