I love this reconstruction, Ratmansky really knows how to revive ballets in their original form. but at the same time I feel bad for sergei vikharev, since he tried to do the same, both with bayadere and with sleeping beauty in the mariinsky and from the beginning, they boycotted him

Brava! What a great presentation--and now I have a link to get people to watch whenever I try to explain to them the complicated history of Swan Lake. Wonderful.

Thank you for uploading the reconstruction! I also realized just now that you are the one in charge of the Marius Petipa society website, which is such an amazing treasure for anyone interested in ballet history! I've been spending more than 10 years research on especially Swan Lake (from reading through Tchaikovsky's biography, getting through his work history and researching swan maiden foklore, reading ballet librettos for text comparison etc.) and I've been sometimes wondering about connections between Swan Lake and La Bayadere, as these ballets so close in time have a certain amount of similarities. Anyway, thank you for all the amazing ballet content and your work for the legacy of historical ballet!

Thank you for this series of lectures.....I was fortunate to see the Ratmansky "reconstruction" in Berlin ( Unfortunately it has been dropped for idiotic PC reasons ) - It was a revelation , and I was entranced . ....By any chance , did you see the mess that Doug Fullington and some nonentity made earlier this year of this ballet in the U.S. ?

Zakharova is 100% better. Today Pavlova couldn't even be compared to her let alone compete with her. Compare the two Swans and you'll see. Bravo Zakharova, bravo!

I came and found this video after asking myself why we have a dessert here in Australia named Pavlova. Apparently, we named the dessert after this woman. Knowing that, I had to come and have a look, I can see why we gave her such an honour. I have Pavlova instead of birthday cake each year, it has been a favourite of mine all my life. Find a recipe, it's easy to make, your kids, friends and family will love you much more.

Curious attempt of making the reconstruction of the original La Bayadere. But I think Vikharev's historical version was better. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6bWdI2HgK1ppNk It looks more like the nineteenth century ballet than Ratmasky’s production with it’s ugly modern costumes and set design.

Pavlova parece vivir ese momento final, entrar a la nada, a un supuesto vacío. Más allá de cualquier técnica, ella transmite todo el patetismo con una expresión mágica. Ella es el cisne resignado, predestinado a morir

This is the second Ratmansky’s production that disappointed me. First was Giselle with the Ukrainian ballet. I thought maybe due to war there was not enough time to rehearse. But now is this… very mediocre. And it’s not about extensions or other movements, it’s about general choreography. The swans with cocked heads, heavy and clumsy at times. Strange hands and feet positions. The longer tutus took away crispness and cleanliness of the lines. And what’s up with famous pas de deux starting as pas de trois? What’s that other guy is there for? To ruin the whole idea? Why, why improve something that was already beautiful?

@harze4201 3 ай бұрын

It's a reconstruction of the original swan lake when it first performed. The second guy who dances with Siegfried and Odette was originally also danced the part-he was playing Siegfried best friend. The tutu was also originally designed like that in the first performance of Swan Lake

@@harze4201 what was his purpose? What was the storyline there?

@harze4201 2 ай бұрын

@Tatiana-yp2bk In the original ballet storyline, he only appeared in Acts 1 and 2, mainly as Siegfried's companion and best friend. Hence, why most Swan Lake left the character entirely or replaced him as a Jester like in the Mariinsky and Bolshoi ballet. The only ballet companies that still add him to the story are New York City Ballet, The American Ballet Theatre, The Royal Ballet, and Dutch National Ballet, where he plays a slightly more active role. The Royal Ballet has him dance two pas de trois in act 1 and act 3 with Siegfried's two younger sisters. The Dutch National Ballet has him be the one who gave Siegfried the idea to go and hunt at the lake, along with being the final witness of Siegfried and Odette's tragic ending in act 4.

Pure Art, for the 1st time, not athletic-acrobatic-gymnastics form of performance but telling a story in a beautiful form of dance without exposing too much of the ballerinas’ bodies; telling the story without the need to read the synopsis of the ballet, decent beautiful clothing - nothing too short or too long, technically very strong clean performance.

@gpopov777 3 ай бұрын

This version of Swan Lake is phenomenal- a true form of art with very artistic side. By the way the dances were sort of fast; the music was going pretty fast and only real professional dancers can catch up with the tempo of the music and still looking great maintaining the look of high level of trained dancers.

@markwhiteraven 3 ай бұрын

What a gift this. I have been a fan of Swanlake since I was eight years old. I have seen all versions, but I often wondered, what would the original Petipa version look like? I guess I’ve got a glimpse of the answer here and I am loving every bit.

@markwhiteraven 3 ай бұрын

I’ve watched this reconstruction with great interest. The mime scenes are more present and elaborate than in current versions, making the story easier to follow, but also more static. Since Fokine introduced mime/story telling through dance, we have grown accustomed to emotions expressed through dance. To a modern audience this version could be perceived as boring quite easily. But that will do this project a great injustice. It is interesting to see a glimpse of what the public would have seen back in the day. However, although the choreography follows the dance notation (you can see Petipa’s style merging), the interpretation of the movement is still a modern one. Back in the day beauty of movement was perceived quite differently, not to mention that the dancers movements were restricted by the fact that they wore corsets. Nevertheless, this version is interesting and enthralling. And not surprisingly, a lot of the good stuff has been kept in todays performances in some way or another. It is only natural for a ballet to evolve, so it can entertain generations to come.

I love this version, it's a shame they don't continue dancing it, except at the Miami City Ballet. As a Labanotation specialist I can appreciate the importance of the reconstruction of a ballet as beautiful as Swan Lake, Ratmansky has made a careful and respectful reconstruction of the original choreography.

Semplicemente dilettantistico; povero Siegfried, ha provato, ma con un disastro ottieni disastro. Forse i dirigenti artistici della Scala, erano in vacanza in Antartica; visualmente sconcertante, dalla coroncina al costume ed i capelli che hanno creato una pessima ottica… e il notevole, amatissimo Cigno che normalmente fa piangere mi ha fatto solo ridere: di classico in questa produzione e’ soltanto lo spartito che sfortunatamente l’orchestra ha fatto come il Cigno: affrettato, meccanico, bancarellistico e basta.

Ballet was so different back then. I really think this “style” works perfectly for this piece: it feels a little bit “heavier”, which shows perfectly the bird’s struggle. Just my opinion, obviously.

Such a beautiful production marred by horrible costumes. It should be a crime to put dancers in costumes (i.e., long skirts) that cover the beautiful movements of their legs.
