Navré pour la qualité, il s'agit d'une numérisation d'un enregistrement VHS qui a plus de 25 ans.
J'ai publié cette vidéo pour la partager, sans aucune contrepartie, pour la culture.
Sorry for the VHS quality, this is an old tape recorded more than 25 years ago.

I can't thank you enough for providing this video. For years all we've had was a 7-minute clip on KZbin. I'm thrilled to be able to see the entire brilliant performance.

[@afluidmouse]

Glad you enjoyed it! I couldn't keep this piece to myself at home. It has to live on!

[@johnthompson4482]

Linda Cantoni, it is with pleasure that I comment in the interest of music that soars

[@MusicalVenture]

BTW, here is one more version of the performance on KZbin kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6TdhIudpMl8hKs It is quite different, you may find the Magician is awesome, etc

[@desaidahartunian6654]

Thank you very much for enabling us to see this video. I Petruschka by Ballet Russes in Opera de Paris decades ago, and it was pure joy and amazement. This video gives me the chance to refresh my memory and enjoyment again and again. Thanks again.

Merci d'avoir mis en ligne une vidéo très intéressante historiquement. Je n'ai jamais appris le français, donc je l'écris en anglais. I heard that it was so difficult to re-enact Petrushka because the staff who knew about that time were old and there were only a few people, it's been over 50 years since the premiere.

[@happy-star-light]

@Louis Madeuf Je suis très heureux que. Merci d'avoir évalué les commentaires J'ai eu cette information dans magazine de ballet publié au Japon. A une époque similaire, j'ai acheté un disque laser Ballets Russes. Monique Loudières a joué le rôle de ballerine dans l'œuvre de PETROUCHKA.

To cry tis good for the soul it's said? I myself had the privilege of being a small background crowd person in a production of the same with 'Rudolf Nureyev? in London 80's Ballet 'Nancy' Co great times.........

[@janeeliot-webb7877]

Remember they are dolls not people. Also the ballet was first performed in 1911. Times have changed but you can stil admire the artistry of the music and design, and enjoy the dancing whilst not agreeing with the portrayal of the ‘Blackamoor’ puppet. This is a constant in art - It is always of its time and so are t its creators - I hate Hitler but I can still appreciate Wagner.

[@lynellewhite3630]

It’s also good to keep in mind that the blackamoor doll is the obviously more desirable and cool one. It’s poor clown petrouska who is the outcast

[@lynellewhite3630]

And yes- this does play to modern stereotypes of the black guy as the cool guy. But those were not necessarily applicable when this show was made

[@lynellewhite3630]

Were they to film it now I’d say change that doll into whatever the current stereotype of cool is…

[@lynellewhite3630]

Biker? That might make a doll…

I'm showing this to my son who loves ballet and when he saw the puppet in blackface he asked, "What is that?" First word that came to mind was, 'racist,' but that's not something I can explain to a two year old. I went with, "He's supposed to be a doll."

[@mariapyne120]

A great ballet but such a shame about the black face.... I can’t believe people get away with this

[@LazlosPlane]

This is NOT "blackface," as you point out, from that knee-jerk little mind of yours. First of all, it is theatrical stage make-up. The character is a "Blackamoor," meaning a dark, North African of the Berber race. Not Negroid. These are conventions and traditions that stretch back through time to the masking traditions of the ancient Greeks and probably older. There was never, and is not now, anything wrong with a dancer applying make-up to help create AN ILLUSION!!! Jesus, that's what theater is all about!!! Get over your own social justice warrior sense of self-righteousness.

[@mariapyne120]

@@LazlosPlane hi. Here is the definition of blackface “used to refer to the practice of wearing make-up to imitate the appearance of a black person”. This ballet is using a white personal to imitate a person of colour through stage makeup. Still just as offensive I’m afraid.

[@LazlosPlane]

​@@mariapyne120 A simple definition written for simpletons. Blackface has a long and complex history; it has meant different things at different times to different people; to sum it up like that is not only wrong, it is insulting. I've studied the history of blackface for over 30 years. I think I've learned a little something. By the way, when they do "Hamlet" in Japan, what do you suppose they do about the fact that all the characters are supposed to be Danish? Should they be prevented from doing Hamlet? Or suppose your High School wants to do "Julius Ceasar," should they take out an ad for actors who are also ancient Romans? Did you know that Orson Welles produced an all-black version of Macbeth ON BROADWAY? Was he wrong to do that? Use your brain. Start thinking like a grown-up. The world is not as simple as you think it is.

[@mariapyne120]

@@LazlosPlane well no he wasn’t wrong to direct that play because he was not using white people to imitate a person of colour. For someone who has studied blackface for over 30 years you surely have been feeding yourself the wrong information and can’t see how racist you are coming across for supporting the use of it. It’s a sick and outdated form of stage makeup which should not be supported, forgiven or used in any manor.

[@mariapyne120]

@@LazlosPlane blackface is pretty simple. Like I said it is imitating a person of colour. It is wrong and disrespectful

[@BaileyDerby]

awesome until the blackface

[@harmonicminorenthusiast]

finally somebody said something 😭 i’m barely seeing the ballet of petrushka and my jaw stooped so low seeing the blackface, but not as low as the people who created that racist character. i would love to know if that’s not supposed to depict Black folks because it’s looking really minstrelsy and that’s really the last thing i expected in a stravinsky ballet-

[@BaileyDerby]

@@harmonicminorenthusiast unfortunately its as racist as it seems. a "moor" was a very broad term used in Europe for anyone dark skinned and originating from non European descent. the term doesn't even bother to note where the person is from, could be India, could be Kenya. It's similar to the term "negro" in American vernacular, which is no longer used.

[@tarantellalarouge7632]

one hundred year after the creation, such representation is not possible anymore, it's not only the blackface but also the gestures, the coconut, etc... I don't know how it's possible to represent this ballet, now, live, without changing a lot of things ! In 1976, few people thought about this being offensively racist (they should have !) and also, in France, the blackfaces were less an issue than in USA, we didn't have the minstrels. However this is still an issue, for exemple, in the north of France, in the Carnival days, there are still groups of blackfaces !
