Prokofiev Romeo and Juliet balcony scene (Macmillan)

Balcony scene, Romeo's variation and Love Dance. Ferri/Corella

[@aureliadiwu_cotofan]

This is the best balcony scene in my opinion. Ferri and Corella's pas de deux is charged with emotion and that teenage lovers' sweet and shy body language. It's just so sweet watching them. Everytime I feel down I look at their beautiful dance and I will keep smiling for a few hours :)

[@susannevollmer2347]

Agree, they are dancing happyness!

[@misseagle39]

I watch this when I feel down too :) Prokofiev’s music and Macmillan’s choreography is also the best union for Romeo & Juliet, as I’ve seen other versions that arn’t as magical ❤

[@1859958]

I have the video of her and Eagling...beautiful because of her, but this one...I was in tears...I can't envision any way this one could be surpassed!!

[@zima176]

Уланова вне конкуренции!!!

[@Mimarspre]

I've seen this scene so many times and never get tired of it. Angel Corella and Alessandra Ferri incarnate Romeo and Juliet so perfectly and the chemistry between them is so perfect !. They are so graceful . I've seen this scene with many wonderful, talented dancers but imho Corella and Ferry are the best Romeo and Juliet ever, just the best.

[@ellawu6552]

Well said. Can't agree with you more.

[@marcelaruth795]

I better prefer Julio Boca

[@Silver_Owl]

I dunno - Corella and Bocca are both wonderful, but I really loved Wayne Eagling as well. We all seem to be agreed on Ferri being the ultimate perfect Juliet though!

[@Guendalina54]

La musica, la coreografia, la mimica e la straordinaria bravura di questi due ballerini, tutti insieme creano la rappresentazione perfetta dell'Amore, quel sentimento travolgente, appassionato, puro, totalizzante, che può esistere solo nell'anima inviolata di due giovanissimi come Romeo e Giulietta. Proprio questo si ritrova in questa magnifica interpretazione di Corella e Ferri. A distanza di anni questo passo a due continua a commuovermi

[@michellynninaba7550]

Alessandra Ferri has claimed this role for all time. It's always thrilling no matter how many times I have seen this performance. Brava!

[@Dalinetje]

Absolutely stunning. The kiss at the end, just wonderful. Ferri radiates joy, so special to watch, what a ballerina..!

[@deeaurelius6541]

Personally I think it's the best version of Balcony scene pas de duex. There are so many wonderful ballet dancers performed their own R&J but only Corella and Ferri interpreated the great love between Shakespeare's characters into every movement and their facial expressions are priceless. I've never seen other performance as goo as this one. I mean, I have watched more than 10 versions of R&J, this one is the best tbh

[@estherleaosilveira406]

I feel the same way about them

[@croonist9]

I personally think her partnership with Julio Bocca was more real to me during this balcony scene. But Corella is a close second for me!!

[@ladyaly864]

It's the only one I have seen where they actually make out

[@misseagle39]

A review said “ Ferri melts into Corella’s arms” and it’s the perfect way of describing their beautiful performance. So adorable together ❤

[@AnnabelleDrumm]

We all have plenty of praise for these world class dancers but let's not forget conductor David Garforth and the La Scala Orchestra creating the magical music for them to fly upon. Garforth is a truly outstanding ballet conductor so very sensitive to the needs of the dancers and to make them look the best they can possibly be.

[@sarahcolombo8019]

This is probably the best balcony scene performance that I've seen.

[@maddibongiorno8192]

Love love love this version of the balcony scene. Could they be any more adorable or beautiful? I danced from 5 to 21 years old, so I am so grateful to watch their joy whenever I watch them.

[@TheElePa]

I loved a lot the version of this pas de deux danced by Alessandra Ferri and Julio Bocca but I have to recognise that Angel Corella is an outstanding Romeo and an absolute fantastic dancer.I think that latino classical dancer (Bocca,Corella,Bolle),in romantic roles like this,are capable to give something special more that the other ones.I couldn't say exactly what,but I feel this way.And Alessandra Ferri as Juliet is simply unreachable. Of such extraordinary dancers are born once every blue moon

[@michaellynmartinez1171]

I don't think this has ever been done with more joy!

[@yurimastrangeli2908]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@pilateswiz]

Absolutely stunning! I can’t imagine a more beautiful Juliet and a more elegant Romeo. A tail as old as time danced with passion and glory.

[@Eve-Nicholson]

Beautiful pas de deux with real emotion and the acting of both of them exemplary. You really believe they are star struck teenagers and the Romeo dancer really convinces with his smiles . Their dancing is so fluid....wonderful.

[@kristiLB93]

This is soooooooo gorgeous! Every so often I am compelled to watch this again. It is utterly romantic. They are probably one of the most dynamic couples every to dance/act in this ballet.

[@princehal4500]

Corolla and Ferri are perfect as R&J. They really capture and convey the youthfulness of the characters. Ferri is one of the best Juliets -- so light and delicate. her movement and expressions really captures J's innocence and the exhuberance of youth. She is well cast in this.

[@ergangui]

For me, this is one of the tops of the human evolution. Can anything more beautiful ever exists? Ángel, as your name says, you are an angel in Earth, the most wonderful gift of gods.Pure beauty.

[@giuliorenzobighin8165]

MOLTO bello questo balletto ove il sentimento si trasforma in esprit de joie .Bravissimi AMBEDUE.Bighin GIULIO

[@yarnwoodandballetshoes4771]

Every time I see this I feel like Juliet: falling in love for the first time. Ferri and Corella are perfect for the roles. I can't even notice their techniques - which are exquisite - because of their interpretations and the emotion they put to their roles. Yes, Romeo, your Juliet is truly the sun!

[@starry61]

I can watch this over and over again...it is so beautiful. They are both so expressive - the facial expressions are so lovely. I love too Ferri's shy girlishness and Corella's turns. Simply wonderful!

[@inspirationofnature]

I love that there is a statue of her at the royal ballet from this Juliet role. My heart melts and sings at the same time every time I watch this.😍

[@lindsaydenman1835]

I’ll never not hold this clip close as the definitive R + J standard. Wow. Wow. Wow.

[@hedemathilde722]

This ballet was greatand beautiful because we can know the feelings of Romeo and Juliet just by looking at their faces and how they dance together.

[@hell0hkitty]

this is the single most powerfully romantic piece on earth!!! wow!!

[@tsrevo1]

08:30 that look, that kiss, they are not playing anymore. this is for real.

[@sarahcolombo8019]

It's called acting. They have a certain chemistry. Don't they?

[@tsrevo1]

Well, that's the thing - I don't think they are acting. it looks like that's kiss is for real, it's more than just chemistry in my mind. I must say I saw this scene at in a dozen different performances, they never seem to grasp the true connection these two have (regardless of the spectacular dancing abilities, of course).

[@tamarameinecke4282]

Yeah. It changes right there.

[@snowleopard89]

Corella...I can't say it enough...I just adore you!!! When you dance the passion and sheer joy you get from just being on stage is so infectious.

[@lysjanvier]

i love how her extensions are amazing, yet still fluid and musical and doesn't look like gymnastics

[@fannishmarcia]

Breathtakingly wonderful!

[@zazazebee]

Whenever I watch another version of this pas de deux, I can't help but compare it to this performance. They are forever my favorite Romeo and Juliet

[@BWclara2005]

One of the most beautiful pas de deuxs! It would be nothing without the music though; I LOVE Prokofiev!!!!

[@josecarloscocarelli4665]

Total bliss! May God bless these two for ever and ever!

[@celinefct3319]

This ballet is beautiful. Their movements are graceful and magnificent and the expressions on their face show different feeling. Romeo has fallen in love with Juliet and he shows his love in this scene.

[@sarahduc565]

The story of Romeo and Juliet me very emotional. This ballet is beautiful and their mouvements arevery graceful. I can feel their feelings thanks to their faces. I recommend it to see.

[@Guendalina54]

Alessandra Ferri è straordinariamente espressiva (oltre che brava) , questo Romeo and Juliet con La Ferri e Angel Corella è veramente uno spettacolo meraviglioso!

[@fraisovoregwendoclary5088]

This ballet is beautiful,We feel that we love for each other.With graceful movement and loving prokofiev us discover another version of Romeo and Juliet. watch this ballet is just magic

[@vasilisakojina447]

Какие милые , лёгкие, весёлые ! Всё очарование юности в них и тем трагичнее финал ! Великолепное исполнение! Браво !

[@thegoof1226able]

This is amazing. They really look like the passionate teenagers they are supposed to be. Just breathtaking.

[@kotczarownika9161]

But she is over 30, isn't she?

[@lingkejiang9244]

She was about fourty when this show was done

[@kotczarownika9161]

Amazing. No one would say it watching it.

[@ImogenCooperpussy-ez1hk]

Forgot how bendy she was. Such effortless and thorough extensions 😮!

[@hell0hkitty]

what a piece of heaven!!!!!!!!

[@jacobfulcher1083]

I love this ballet the in this era the most. The dancers are so fresh and experienced that the energy between the music, the characters and the movement is almost perfect!

[@VforRF]

Best performing that scene I ever have seen in my life.

[@bfbdesk]

From out of this world from the third heaven comes this love that only our God could bring and Prokofiev and the dancers could hear.

[@rxdeaier]

So beautiful & graceful. Brought tears to my eyes...,,

[@checsaaa]

superb skills of corella and ferri. love it!

[@LinHiril]

It is nearly impossible to mess this up, a gorgeous piece of choreography...and I'm not really a Macmillan fan.

[@sopranosd]

+Lin Hiril I agree -- what incredibly exhausting choreography as well. All of those lifts! And they do all of it so effortlessly. Such a joy to watch.

[@LadyGreyBlack]

I love the pipe organ in this.

[@Akkirae]

best best best best and damn that kiss

[@Beautifullytragic6]

They were a magnificent pair!

[@truecrimeandstuff]

my oh my, look how she melts in his hands when they kiss :'( makes me cry every time

[@taliahudgins8267]

Me as well!

[@forallsenses]

100 percent, just amazing, I have no words

[@jacobfulcher1083]

Same with Corella he captures the role of Romeo so well you can feel what he is saying.

[@grahamcheshire6848]

The very best performance - awsome

[@Ettoredipugnar]

Prokofiev 's music ! Like thick sweet lush icing !!!!!

[@vincentdupuis9601]

Actually I don't really like that kind of piece, but this one.. Wow ! It was amazing ! We can see easily the feelings of the actors/dancers, the love between Romeo and Juliet ! In fact I don't like this ballet too but objectively, it's a masterpiece..

[@Spifftasticdork]

This makes me feel like swooning every time I watch it. :)

[@stephaniecaron3416]

Romeo to fall un love with juliet ,they demontrated in the ballet so it's magnificient.When the dancers are gracious and fabulous in their mouvements, yet they are a little sad because they leave.

[@alvesdiasmaeva8583]

This extract from a ballet aims at showing how two people are in love. Romeo and Juliet show their love when dancing and they are romantic.

[@dancer5223]

I second that comment about it being the best balcony scene ❤

[@hell0hkitty]

glorious.......

[@jennifer5512]

Greatest of all time!

[@owmehgudohohoh5886]

This is beautiful , truly beautiful .

[@catherinebarra4463]

Comparto plenamente la mayoría de los comentarios. La complicidad y magnetismo de esta pareja maravillosa de bailarines me emociona cada vez que los veo. Son artistas en el más amplio sentido de la palabra, la gracia y naturalidad de su interpretación es realmente conmovedora...

[@julienhermand3254]

tbh, i'm not sure if I like it or not, I'm completely oblivious to any message dance tries to communicate, though I can interpret it by taking a closer look to their face. imo, this isn't much like a painting or any thing I would appreciate. Though I'm pretty sure I can understand that this kind of story communicated through body language might amaze many of you, I definitely won't say this is bad, since I wouldn't be able to reproduce something any better than this, and I even though that the music was pretty good. Still, if you're not oblivious to the message that this ballet wants you to catch, then, I'll definitely recommend you to watch some more.

[@moilleosseuse3445]

+Julien Hermand (“NB”) I agree with you

[@lisevasconcelos2577]

que lindo!! sensível!! o corpo fala!!

[@maddibongiorno8192]

How do I find the whole ballet? I love this scene so much as a dancer myself in the past.

[@gillianday4804]

Romeo and Juliet is my favourite story from William Shakespeare.

[@damienmartiny7728]

I dont like ballet but they are very gracefull and we can see the dancer's feelling

You can see the love Romeo has for Juliet. It's the saddest romance of the two.

[@suerichardson570]

Sooo magnificent! Is this ABT?? Anybody know the company?

[@figaroble]

굉장히 아름답다

[@magloyd4907]

They are fine but I'm a little disappointed because I saw the Ferri/Wayne Eagling version of this from the 1984 (?) film. Perhaps because it was a film they took more chances, some of the jumps and catches were MUCH more daring and dramatic that- they gave one goosebumps.

[@bernylecuont2116]

Cranko is the best
