A.Ferri and A.Corella in Romeo & Juliet PDD

[@emitch9213]

I always felt this was Ferri's ballet. Thank you. Wonderful to see after all these years. 🌹

[@jonathanaguilar85]

this is the best version of the balcony scene - corella is what makes this so beautiful. ferri is ferri and she is a gorgeous juliet no matter who her partner is but corella is why this version is so real and pure. i am lost for words! and i confirm FERRI IS JULIET!

[@karennoble1168]

Just beautiful. The most Convincing Romeo and Juliette, the best version i have seen. So youthfull, playfull, such energy!!, also perfectly bodily matched. Elated in discovering love.

[@allycrombie33]

Alessandra's feet are ridiculous. And Angel's my favorite premier danseur simply because of how great of an actor he is as well as a dancer. This video is gorgeous.

[@66nylorac]

What I love about Corella here is that, I buy it! I BELIEVE that he is a 16 year old boy, a bit rash, playful, and oblivious to how dangerous this is. I also fully believe he is in love for the first time, and I love the smiles of wonder, and the kiss, all of it. Of course, Mcmillan's choreography, and the score alone are stunning. As far as Ferri, what more can be said, she is breath-taking.

[@DRAMAQUEEN1195]

ferri has the best arch i have ever seen!!! she's breathtaking!

[@soniaproiettichecchi3888]

Amazing and so touching! Full of pathos, harmony and real love! Both Angel and Alessandra are Romeo and Juliet indeed... The beauty of their souls come up as fresh water in a night of great promises...

[@idaattanasio7362]

Sonietta ciao. Forse non ti ricorderai di me dopo tutti questi anni!! Sora Ida

[@soniaproiettichecchi3888]

Ida Attanasio Siiiiiii, come potrei non ricordarmi!!! Wonderful...Ti ho scritto su FB!!!

[@idaattanasio7362]

Sonia sono felicissima di sentirti. Come stai??? Ho seguito tutto quello che ho potuto di te. Mi ricordo i bei tempi tutti insieme!!! Mi sei mancata.

[@idaattanasio7362]

Non sono su più su fb mi rimetto subito. Un bacione e se sei qui magari possiamo vederci.

[@bookqueen520]

This has reestablished my faith in humanity and I just fell a little bit in love with Romeo...

[@mikedumais]

Goodness, what a beautiful pas de deux. It's the very first balcony scene where the male dancer actually knows how to act and convinced me that he actually loved Juliet. Lovely in every way. Keep up the good work.

[@aspicia]

ogni singola volta che lo rivedo è come se fosse la prima..la stessa emozione, trepidazione..un incanto assoluto..e poi quel bacio...!!!!struggente, romantico, passionale..questo passo a due racchiude l'essenza dell'amore. la migliore versione..SUPERBA!! ç_ç

[@chesilly]

Corella is wonderful. I loved his movements.

[@JenniferYuTY]

Everything is so perfect and so believable. They have made Shakespeare very proud. Thanks to all the artists and everyone involved from stage to backstage so the audience can enjoy such a breathtaking performance. Angel and Ferri are perfect in their interpretation of Romeo and Juliet. Thanks to technology too as it captured the best performance of life time.

[@loveemirandaa]

I've seen this pdd many times, and done many ways, and personally this has so far been my favorite. I love that throughout the whole peice it has this sort of flowing feeling in it that reminds me of young love and how you feel like you're floating on a cloud. Also I love the innocence of how right before they kiss they're smiling at eachother and she looks down nervously and then back up to him. I just feel like it's something a nervous someone would do before their first kiss.It was beautiful

[@criss2209]

i simply have no words to describe such beauty and such feelings....nothing in the world and in history can be that beautyful and perfect. the music, he coreography, the dancers, the interpretation...it seems a divine creation to show us how heaven is like. no one can ever be such a perfect juliet like ferri. and corella...i just love him, i have no words..

[@bobousnik]

OMG I love them.Over and over.

[@snowleopard89]

If I were given one chance in my entire life to dance a pas de deux from any ballet with flawless technique & the perfect partner....I think this would be it! Amazing, chills, (lots and lots of chills!!!) stunning, beautiful, perfect partnership....I could go on!!!

[@keiliana]

Actually, Angel Corella is probably one of my favorite male dancers out there and I even think he does a great Romeo. However, my FAVORITE Romeo is definitely Julio Bocca! Like Ferri, he dances with his heart and if you watch his first few steps, he doesn't even take his eyes off of Juliet as he does the turns and leaps, etc. Just beautiful.

[@lauracrimson]

Alessandra and Angel are just made for this. Not only because of their skill, but also their looks. They portray the most beautiful and sincere Romeo & Juliet

[@hopeemch]

Ive seen lots of dancers do the R&J balcony PDD and no one and I do mean no one does it like Ferri and Corella. They are not only the most incredibly exquisite dancers I've ever seen and embody the romantic ideal of the characters, but they are consummate actors as well. They look at each other as if entranced. They touch each other as if they can't get enough. And their kiss.... is pure magic! Thank you for posting this wonderful video.

[@lmi88]

i think i'm in love with him....and i'm sure i'm in tears Those two are one of the cuttest couples ever!!!

[@81lavy]

Alessandra Ferri is one of the best dancers ever. I love her and this is one of my favourite PDD!Awesome!

[@natura1971]

Stunning, absolutely stunning. So authenic and it´s so truthful, you believe that they´re teens in love. Thank you so much for this post.

[@snowleopard89]

ME too!! The music, the dancing, everything was perfect!! Got chills just typing that! :-P

[@MelodyandRythm1]

WOW ...........PERFECTION! I would do anything tobe able to dance like Ferri does and beside the absoulotely amazing dancing that set is fantastic aswell!

[@DellDreamer]

"Showy" Angel brought youthful excitement to the scene. I don't think it it wrong. Bravo!

[@swanodette89]

l'anno scorso ho visto bolle ne "Lo schiaccianoci"...Fantastico!! e anche bellissimo =)

[@jazzedaboutcheese]

Angel was really into that kiss! :) lol I love him

[@TenduYou]

I'm weeping. Magnificent.

[@mozarime]

Oh my gosh! the kiss!!!!

[@91supersarah]

simply AMAZING.... without words..... *.*

[@laurajbj85]

In march i will go to the teatro alla scala to see this ballet with roberto bolle!!! don't wait for it!!!!!!

[@hopeemch]

I agree totally. They look the part as well as act the part and dance the part. That's about as good as it gets.

[@mihohomundo]

Corella, OMG he really is romeo,

[@Pearlaceous]

This is so beautiful - and I still can't decide whether I prefer her with Corella or Bocca. They are both stupendous anyway! But Ferri's Juliet is just a miracle!

[@MarianneSmith-c5v]

agreed=but think Corella has the edge-he portrays the innocence a little better-but I love Ferri & Bocca as well. Both men are phenomonal in this dance.

[@criss2209]

i cant stop watching it.....

[@krazy77grl]

That gave me chills!

[@biswajitrcut]

Greetings from INDIA breathtaking performance !!! spellbound.. Thanks a lot for sharing and uploading..

[@sublimeblush]

Alessandra Ferri is AMAZING. I love this piece!

[@MTwannaB4jesus]

i have to agree with '66nylorac'. Corella is so wonderfully playful, naive, rash, and somewhat childishly-passionate. it was almost like watching the video of Nurayev/Fonteyn; you can feel the passion and the being in love for the first time. It's wonderful.

[@fouette83]

EXCELENTE!! los dos estan impecables... y que buen beso!!

[@hairyeahyeah]

i think they are both awesome. Different interpretations are what makes dance unique. Ferri is absolutly devine. The is no better Juliet than her.

[@ukypizarro]

Gracias por subir esta parte. Podrían subirlo entero el ballet de Romeo y julieta con estos dos grandes bailarines. Sería muy bueno!!!!!!!

[@chizzieshark]

Wow. Amazing.

[@esquibelle]

So beautiful.

[@gmhmilenio]

She's perfect, the best, but Corella is truly breathtaking here, couldnt take my eyes of off him, he makes it look so believable, he actually looks in love. And the kiss! His Romeo is definitely so much better than Bocca's and Eagling's. And his Prince Siegfried is also a joy to watch. Absolute perfection these two!

[@jose.9457]

this pas de deux is so innocent and beautiful.. by the way, what a good kiss. lol

[@jose.9457]

i'm inlove with angela corella.. defenetly

[@GK0216]

보는 내가 움찔움찔할 정도로 사랑의 벅참 기쁨과 설레임이 느껴진다. 솔로는 웁니다.

[@criss2209]

@BalletDancerAmerica it´s not ABT, but Teatro alla Scala with Corella and Ferri as guest artists

[@skycastles79]

Angel portrays a lovely Romeo here.

[@Trublugrits]

Alessandra is Juliet, as far as I'm concerned. I've never seen anyone top her performance. This is my favorite ballet, score and Sir Kenneth MacMillion's version is my favorite!

[@SilverInsanity]

Yes, it was choreographed for Lynn Seymour. But because Margot Fonteyn was more famous, they had her dance the premiere, if I remember correctly...

[@darkone131]

Beautiful Prokofiev!!!

[@mimimishishishi]

I'd do anything to be juliet right now. *drooling*

[@musicat1984]

Meraviglioso...

[@patriciasarda]

A ju e o euge vao arrasar...

[@CaptainJenna7]

i totally agree

[@14Danceric]

I love how Ferri can take some facial expressions from modern days and put them in these ballets. (For instance 1:02 minutes left)

[@yanisericfilm]

@citruzzlove I totally agree!

[@lmi88]

am i the only one wishing i were ferri just for that final kiss??? Lol

[@applelemonhead3345]

now im not positive correct me if im wrong, but im pretty damn sure that when shakespeare created the play he said "when this is made into a ballet it will be made for alessandra ferri and angel corella." i think i remember him saying that somewhere....

[@princessoftides87]

that is beautiful. yes, it's kenneth macmillan. I like it better than the cranko version.

[@manuebuen]

Alessandra Ferri + Ángel Corella + Sergei Prokofiev + Romeo y Julieta = Perfección.

[@fatimaysabelbardalesloayza9634]

Por favor sube el ballet completo

[@sylphida]

i think the thing is angel corella is great as romeo taken by himself, but in the romeo variation angel corella is dancing for himself, julio bocca through the entire thing stays connected with alessandra's juliet ... and the role was in fact made for her by kenneth macmillan ;)

[@sylphida]

i prefer the version with bocca but this one is fantastic too

[@criss2209]

without doubt they are really good as well, but i still prefer corella and ferri...they inspire me much more

[@allycrombie33]

Oh I meant it as a compliment. By "Ridiculous", I meant "absolutely gorgeous." That turnout and that point are incredible, I'm so jealous of it!

[@tigereyes5]

I admire Ferri for remaining standing after that kiss cos if it were me i would have fainted right on the spot and ruined the show!

[@bobousnik]

No you are not the only one....

[@hopeemch]

Could it be that they smile because they are happy in love? Just a thought.

[@hopeemch]

To each his own. I still remember the raves Nureyev and Fontaine got back in the sixties for their Romeo and Juliet. If you look at it today it's almost laughable (In my opinion).

[@bubblymonkeyphat]

ALL the peeps that think ballet is easy and dont respect the dancers need to watch this video i mean corella has to lift up 105 pounds that is either moving or in a exquisite position above his head while keeping an expression making no sounds and keep his body graceful while football players may lift 300 they are not graceful can grunt and make ugly faces lifting something lifeless, still also ferri is so wonder ful dont get me started feet extention gracefulness expression.... and the kiss

[@Garotarosachoque]

Sometimes I think she isn't human too... :)

[@znarf541]

Corella has the clean lines and the clean controlled teqhnique of Baryshnikov, but lacks his muscular intensity...

[@applelemonhead3345]

@MrKLT1945 TL;DR

[@orangesarerandom]

lol no way is angel corella better at romeo- he's way 2 showy- and he doesnt pull off most of the steps as well as bocca (he is great- just not really suited 2 this role) alessandra is the perfect juliet tho- its like the role was made 4 her

[@wifeofmurtagh]

i agree
