Kenneth Macmillan's choreography is simply sublime...

[@jamjalll]

Great and impecable choregraphy by Mcmillan !!! Dancers with a perfect technic and very expressive in acting I ve relly injoyed it

[@pagano1905]

Alban Lendorf, a magnificent Des Grieux and most graceful dancer. Bravo.

[@jerrydouglas4583]

No bravo after DeGrieux‘s solo?! They are cold. This is one of the best De Grieuxs I’ve ever seen, if not THE best. Bravo. Well done. Impeccable.

[@AllieB-11.11]

That's strange since they had no problems shouting 'Bravo' a couple of times during Act 1!

[@susannevollmer2347]

A very cinvincing performance in every way. Congreats! My favorit Manon!.

[@jackyhua4835]

The best show. Super male lead😘😘😘

[@markbeck8384]

I much prefer the Manon story to the Traviata one. This choreography is wonderful, and I love the Massenet music. The company looks great in this ballet, and I think it suits all their strengths. The leads are outstanding and really believable.

Act II. Scene I: A Party at the hotel Particulier of Madame - Manon arrives at the party given by Monsieur G.M. and is clearly torn between the wealth of her companion and her love for Des Grieux, who is also there with Lescaut. Des Grieux tries to persuade Manon to leave with him but she tells him that the time is not right and only will be when he takes more of Monsieur G.M.’s money at cards. Des Grieux is caught cheating and he and Manon rush away. Act II. Scene II: Des Grieux’s lodgings - Manon and Des Grieux once again declare their love for one another but Monsieur G.M. arrives with the police and Manon is arrested as a prostitute. In the ensuing struggle Lescaut is killed. Act III. Scene I: The Port - The Jailer of the Penal Colony awaits the arrival of the convicts from France. Manon has been deported to America as a prostitute and Des Grieux has followed her there by pretending to be her husband. The Jailer turns his interest towards Manon. Act III. Scene II: The Jailer’s room - The Jailer has arrested Manon but offers her rewards in the hope that she will desert Des Grieux and live with him. Des Grieux, however, breaks in and kills the Jailer. Act III. Scene III: The Swamp - Manon and Des Grieux have escaped into the swamp of Louisiana. All her former ambitions of wealth and splendor have been renounced for her love of Des Grieux. While eluding their pursuers Manon collapses and dies in his arms.

Mange sjove scener. Og flot og stilfuld er den også. Den vil jeg vise i Svendborg Seniorakademi sidst i november.

29:00. The most tragic music ever.

[@sarabruun5019]

Hello. I was wondering whether you have more clips or full performances from the royal danish ballet to upload? if so, which performances do you have?

[@jerrydouglas4583]

They are all so good.

[@alexhewish1921]

Can anyone identify the piece of music at 25:30 (the waltz at the party Act 2 Scene 1). Thank you

[@gyorgytibrea4076]

❤CSODÁLATOS, NAGYSZERÜ.

[@fabiesque]

The girl doing Manon is at a corps de ballet level. You need to be a true principal for this.....

[@jerrydouglas4583]

And the guy’s really good, too.

[@tobyix1569]

I have read more than my fair share of dubious comments on YT, but yours probably hits the gold. As a pro ex-dancer, I couldn't find an issue with her performance, but I surely missed something you didn't. Would you be so kind to explain me a bit of the how and the why of your dissatisfaction ?

[@carmenridiche7984]

Also th music
