Manon Act I - Bedroom Pas De Deux - Sarah Lamb & Vadim Muntagirov

[@22_leahjoyce]

this is by far the most romantic ballet I've ever seen. Beautiful!

[@brendaannedufaur6244]

So beautiful. That last slide she made badly injured her foot in 2008. There's an on-line video where she talks about it.

[@rebeccanewman8391]

where is the video?

@@rebeccanewman8391 in this interview kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnO1eqaPfrBjbtE the timestamp in 24:19 is where she starts talking about it

[@noblesetsentimentales]

Many ballerinas have been badly injured by that slide over the years: Harvey, Guillem, Cojocaru, Rojo, Cuthbertson... Luke Jennings even wrote an article about it suggesting the choreography should be modified.

[@MilkyWhite1]

@@noblesetsentimentales It seems so simple. Do you know what about that slide causes so many injuries?

[@mojovr5003]

@@MilkyWhite1 I'm pretty sure that if the alignment is even slightly off, or if the guy doesn't hold her up enough, the ballerina can jam her foot uncomfortably against the ground, then twisting it due to the momentum and her body weight

Now that was a wonderful Manon! Kudos to Sarah Lamb and Vadim Montegirov for that performance!

[@yael77995533]

They portray love so beautifully...

[@sofiacisneros2700]

they did an amazing job and made it their own. their conection reminds me of Marianela and Federico´s conection, they also did the piece their own. love it just as much.

[@Celine-un2fq]

My favorite pas de deux done by my favorite ballet dancer Vadim Muntagirov. Sarah and Vadim dance so beautifully together.💗 Thank you so much. This has made my day!

Я смотрела балет "Манон" Ковент-Гарден с Сарой Лэмб - моей самой любимой балериной Ковент-Гарден, потом несколько дней была под впечатлением. В моем городе в кино-концертном зале "Космос" была специальная программа о балетах и операх практически всех стран Мира и, пройдя 15 минут от дома, я переносилась в другой мир, я узнала много великолепных и гениальных артистов оперы и балета, я полюбила Ковент-Гарден и его гениальных танцовщиков Стивена МакРей и Сару Лэмб. В Ковент-Гарден великолепная балетная труппа. А премьер Ковент-Гарден Вячеслав Самодуров до недавнего времени был художественным руководителем балетной труппы Екатеринбургского театра оперы и балета и на базе театра создал балет европейского уровня. Надо признать, что в части балета, Россия уже не впереди планеты всей и это неудивительно ведь практически во всех театрах Мира танцуют выпускники российской балетной школы. Когда я смотрела балет "Майерлинг" со Стивеном МакРей и Сарой Лэмб, то сидевшая в соседнем кресле женщина во время антракта сказала, что она испугалась за меня, потому что ей показалось, что я не дышу и что я не отреагировала, когда она взяла мое запястье, чтобы проверить пульс, который казалось затих. А я и не слышала её прикосновение к моему запястью. Я улетела. С началом путинской преступной СВО трансляции прекратились.из-за санкций. А мне не хватает этих трансляций. Я не могу себе позволить посещать театры оперы и балета по всему Миру и эти трансляции для меня жизненно важны как глоток свежей воды для путника в пустыне. Но есть Ютуб, спасибо ему. ❤ из России, 11 октября 2024 года.

Utterly beautiful , a joy to watch 🙏🏻

[@lisar9425]

Never thought I’d say it, but I’ve come to prefer Sarah Lamb’s portrayal in this scene-she toggles so deftly between calculating and abandon.

[@Missfrankiecat]

I agree. This is her role.

[@Sofia-rl7ue]

The ballet is MUCH better than the book itself

[@Carolina-cb6hp]

Gracias por subirlo.

[@faun070]

Intense portrayal and so utterly musical. Looking forward to Hayward's Vetsera debut. To me, this superb actress/dancer is the uncrowned prima ballerina of the Royal Ballet.

[@ntricker]

This is Sarah Lamb though.

How was Haywards Vetsera?

No, it’s the ballet Manon, the bedroom pas de deux.

came here from a fanfiction. was not disappointed.

[@broccoli4259]

people write ballet fanfiction now?

[@鄭凱元-z9i]

As a fan of both Sarah and Vadim I am terribly intrigued. Care to share?

[@vlovesyapping]

oh my god i have no idea when i said this 😭 rest assured, it was a really good fanfic. i think the reader was a dancer or smth? idk 💀

This is more of a happy pas de deux compared to mayerling which is more dark

What is the name of the song? I must know

[@maryb6686]

Jules Massenet wrote it.

[@Beautyhascome]

It's an orchestral arrangement of an art song, Ouvre tes yeux bleus, by Massenet. This ballet's music is an assortment of pieces by Massenet, my fave by far is the version of an oratorio aria for the final pdd. Just beautiful music all around and so beautifully arranged!

[@profokiev9944]

On the contrary i actually think that represents how playful they are romantically since theyre young. But valid opinion
