Ballet fragment Princess Florine and Blue Bird [The Sleeping Beauty] | Dutch National Ballet

[@elizzy8754]

This was one of the best Bluebird pdd I've ever seen. Sakamoto is flawless (she would be a wonderful Aurora!). Yamada dances very well, with beautiful hands, and is the perfect partner. Their final diagonal of little pas de chat was so charming. The costumes are subtle and elegant, without the usual garish bright blue that is so often used. The tutu is particularly lovely.

I saw her as aurora during this run (last week), she was absolutely phenomenal!

@@sophievandongen2998 Lucky you! I live 9 hours away from Amsterdam by train, but I am thinking that I may have to do the trip some day!

Ballet is so underrated it is so beautiful to watch it deserves more attention

[@susanmuir286]

Absolutely beautiful, a great pair of dancers who are superb together. The best Bluebird I've ever seem. Congratulations to the Dutch National Ballet's costume department, the Bluebird costumes are as delicate as the bird itself. Thank you for bringing some joy into this world.

My granddaughter and her friend went to see this ballet.They enjoyed it very much. My granddaughter is herself an enthousiastic amateur ballet dancer: classical and modern. I'm so proud of her!

Always love the princess florine variation but this version is a whole other level of lovely

[@feliciacoffey6832]

Here I go, watching this once again! Fills my heart with delight, they are so perfectly charming!

[@VanessaBritneyTaylor]

What a gorgeous, versatile ballerina is Riho Sakamoto! 😍 I wish there were more official recordings of her.

[@philzmusic8098]

This is my favorite part of the ballet.

Hello and Big love from Japan! So proud of these beautiful Japanese dancers💕オランダのバレエ団に日本人のダンサーがいらっしゃったんですね💕　とても綺麗です！日本から応援してます💛

軽やかで見ていて飽きない😊もっと色んな踊りが観たいです。素晴らしい！

[@normamimosa5991]

Beautiful. How the Mariinsky could learn some costuming lessons from the Hett Ballet. Very special to see Riho Sakamoto, from the Kirov Ballet Academy in Washington, D.C., dancing so beautifully and as a principal. The incredible Mr. Du's student, I believe!

[@myrthelammertsen8905]

Love this🥰😍😍😍💕 The way riho sakamento flows over the stage, amazing

[@tinyfeetrbx]

I adored this. Being lucky enough to learn the princess Florine variation from my teacher who danced the male part of this blue bird duo is incredible. These variations always stun me. This one was top tier.

[@himayaranasinghe6359]

They make it look so effortless 😍

One day i'd like to see Koyo's version of this. That is, if he's wished to be casted in one. i definitely think he'd be great as Blue Bird.

[@nicolereding7234]

Stunning pair, one of the best blue bird i have seen in my life, yamada is fabulous😊😮😮😮 and i agree Sakamoto will be a great Aurora

[@tomokomizutani-blanz827]

とても素敵です。Shoさんはジュニアカンパニーのレッスン動画でお見かけしました。正団員になられたのですね。Shoさん(日本語でどう書くのかしりませんので)の踊りは力強く、上品です。手の動きが鳥らしいですね。Rihoさんは軽々と(本当は大変でしょうけど)正確に踊られてとても可愛らしい感じです。また息のあった踊りを見せてください。応援しています。

Lovely, and best costumes ever.

[@nicolereding7234]

Bravissimo to Yamada for his solo😮😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉 hele mooi🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@carolwebber9247]

Such a sweet little dance.

[@Adelei42069]

Oh! I just realized this is based on the Countess d’Aulnoy story! That story is one of my favorites of hers and she is my favorite fairytale writer

[@rachelfrahm829]

Very awesome love costumes and her tutu skirt and the length of it

[@feliciacoffey6832]

I confess I don't even like this pas de deux, but that was perfection! They were both charming and delightful in every way! It was like s beautifully-wrapped, delicious piece of candy!!

[@lmgutier]

Lovely!

[@LilianaCoutoBallet]

Magníficos!!!

[@cablenelsonbabygrandpiano842]

Beautiful!!! Thank you!!!

[@malu7030]

Warum ist bei dem Solo von Prinzessin Florine ab Minute 5:00 die Musik nicht langsamer? Ich finde, das wirkt so ein bisschen gehetzt. Ist das das originale Tempo von der Musik oder haben die das schneller gespielt?

[@nicolereding7234]

I will go back to Amsterdam and i dream to spend 2 evenings at ballet house🎉❤

Лучшее лекарство от осенней депрессии.

[@ИринаПелевина-к9ъ]

Очень тяжело и упрощённо.

[@thethomaspiano]

I hate the clapping between the parts..

[@michelboudot2882]

He is a good dancer…very unatractive…the headdress is awful make up for Trocadéro ballet She is exquisite

[@jeanrobertvanwoerkom6215]

Why do you have to state such negative words about someone who is putting him self in such a vulnerable position and doing a great job dancing this very demanding role? Just because you can, just because you have an opinion? Shame on you!

[@irisvanderhoorn8017]

why do you feel the need to hurt someone? Keep your poison to yourself
