ROBERTO BOLLE and Svetlana Zakharova 'Giselle' (3)

[@josephorbonmanatac2793]

Roberto & Svetlana are probably the best looking ballet partners in the ballet world... just love them...

[@lingkejiang9244]

Not really...

[@giselledaniels3231]

Joseph Orbon Manatac Yes!

[@outabout8125]

they absolutely are

[@emmalawson4054]

Jiang Lingke are you sure?

[@ilianmona]

They are my favorite cause I’m a bit too superficial

[@Жанна-ч7ю]

Лучшая Жизель Светлана Захарова, она не только танцует она проживает эту роль. Эмоции зашкаливают! Браво Светлана!

[@annaiuga]

I watch this ovet and over again. I can t get tired of this magical performance. I love Giselle and Svetlana is perfect for this role. Just love her and Roberto Bolle togeter! Just beyond beautiful!

[@mauriziopaggio6970]

Entrambi bravissimi ! Interpretazione da brividi , specialmente il finale …. La tecnica e la pulizia dei movimenti distingue questi due talenti dagli altri ballerini …. Davvero molto bravi e dai fisici che sembrano fatti per Giselle ! Conclusione : la più bella e perfetta rappresentazione fino ad oggi vista ! Congratulazioni 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 Sono i miei ballerini preferiti .

[@Kennylotr]

Exceptional. I probably will not find more Charismatic ballet dancers as Svetlana and Roberto in my life span.

[@blueraspberry9517]

Kenny Soo You and me both 😊

[@НатальяКондрина-р9г]

Браво! Мурашки от такого замечательного исполнения!

[@robertdewarren1789]

Roberto Bolle was a teenager when I took over the direction of the Ballet at La Scala, and as artistic supervisor of the School, I worked with him often, particularly in preparing school performances. His teacher and Anna Maria Prina must be proud of this great artist that has delighted the World for so many years.

[@alainspiteri502]

R W j was a teenager when j saw at Alger Cuevas with Nina Vyroubova also Rosella Hightower in 1958 ; j can write j saw in live Margot Fonteyn Claude Bessy ( Bolero'-Bejart 1070 ) Nouree Baryschnikov at Paris Opera ( 1975 ) and Kirov also in live Mezentzeva Komleva Bolchoi Bessmertnova several times Semenyaka and French Thesmar Pontois V Vassiliev no in live . Why j writz this ? Because the live is very far from all the videos Y Tube the stage in live very important so j can write j saw j known very well the first international-dancers , for me men : Noureev Baryschnikov Schauffus- Khalfouni in live 1977 Marseille Opera , Denard ( 1970 ) . J have never saw Roberto Bolle in live but j can write he is a historic dancer j saw by videos , for me thete are two International dancers j prefer Roberto Bolle ( with videos Y T ) and Mickael Denard perhaps one degree above Bolle . Itxs necessary j repeat that before 1978 there was no VHS - Internet and to day in fact audience don't known great dancers ballerinas before 1980 ' so Ghislaine Thesmar * Giselle-Atanassoff * Pontois Dupont ( Sleeping-beauty ) Mickael Denard ( Oiseau de Feu 1970 ) For men for me j known j prefer two International dancers Mickaël Denard * in live * Roberto Bollet ( videos ) all others dancers after except of course R Noureev ! It's necessary j repeat that famous dancers before 1980' are forgotten to day because no videos on Y T ; Roberto Bolle is lucky to have all his carreer on Y T with videos no for others great da'cers before 1980' pity

[@robertdewarren1789]

Thank you for sharing your memories. I was lucky to have worked with many of those artists who impressed you. A real privilege. Be well.

[@francisheperi4180]

Very masculine ballet dancer... no cringing.

[@steemdup]

Ms Zakharova never seems rushed and she completes each movement fully. She must be magic because she's incredibly talented. She expresses emotion so naturally, and her arms and hands are so graceful and delicate.

[@filzwurm]

if you ever need to tell people what you mean by saying ballett needs to look featherweigh and effortless, just show them 11:30 that lift just gave me tears omg

[@blueraspberry9517]

+Alice De I dont even have to look to know exactly what you are referring too - a ballerina who floats and a partner who has an uncanny ability to know exactly where his ballerina is in space - its a heady mix.

[@katiefulton9456]

Amen! Amen to all of this!

[@meggymdz1174]

Alice De she was literally floating...

[@MontiPoo]

Wow!

[@mariannesmith5379]

Svetlana was flying . .beautiful combination of dancers

[@neethadesilva5747]

They are the most beautiful partners .The passion they exert into their performance is incomparable. My favorites

[@sarahjamal86]

I have huge respect to those ballet dancers the beauty that we are seeing requires a lot of hard work and dedication.

[@Dennhunt1]

Svetlana's port de bras is exquisite. She captures Giselle's ethereal spirit so beautifully.

[@LauraAlli]

They are honestly the most attractive dance partners I think ever 😂 AND ridiculously talented but honestly those jaw lines and high cheek bones JESUS. Power couple. ⭐️

[@agnesbutterbun]

Absoloute perfect high extensions and control. She has the right body and training, she is perfect, the best Ballerina in our times.

[@emmanuellatendem6258]

agnesbutterbun agree

[@sedekiman]

Not in my time.

[@alessiabosic9167]

Ballerini immensi...finale intenso e commovente. Grazie per queste emozioni ❣

[@milkmtz9384]

Tell me that I'm not the only one that cryed at the end.

[@adhcraze]

I cry every time

[@arch1arch213]

😂😂😂

[@sarahrich2816]

They make me absolutly melt. The music is like a lulaby. The ending is so beautiful, I cry like a baby. My favorite ballet.

[@christofermontalto2239]

Grandiosi!!Roberto e Svetlana!!🇷🇺🇮🇪♥️🇷🇺👍🏻

[@keithdanvers-colquhoun]

Giselle and Swan Lake are my favourite ballets. In this, the ballerina is so graceful, and he is ideal suited as her partner. Beautifully danced.

[@Quimlh]

Elegancia suprema de Svetlana zakharova

[@Ritusia2009]

Phenomenal, I was on this ballet, but I'm still watching, for me this dance is a masterpiece !!!

[@KSfan4ever]

This is an exquisite pairing but my gold standard is the breathtaking 1998 Bolshoi Giselle with Nicolai Tsiskaridze and Svetlana Lunkina, available to see on You Tube. It is extraordinary.

[@antonellapavone3879]

La migliore i interpretazione, dopo le maestose FRACCI e FERRI. Meravigliosi, perfetti, intensi!!!❤❤

[@k.k.v]

Светлана и Роберто-дуэт в абсолюте! Прекраснейшая работа! Магия в абсолюте! Года проходят, а я до сих пор на одном дыхании смотрю все постановки с их участием! Два гениальнейших профессионала балета! Невероятные!!! ❤❤❤

[@HeyItsRemi]

11:30 might be the most flawless ballet lifts in the history of ever. She looks like she’s floating

[@giuliorenzobighin8165]

La Lene dolcezza della riconduzione dei passi alla musica resta spettacolo mirabile.Bighin

[@maricarmenduran4562]

En la danza, Roberto y Svetlana, son la pareja por excelencia, sin lugar a dudas!!!!!!!

[@librasfactory]

Amazing version ! Svetlana is just flying :) love it ! So romantic

[@FranciscoFerrerGaliana1930]

Maravillosa versión , Svetlanaes como una pluma llevada por el viento...¡¡¡

[@ginabataille1796]

Zakharova also danced Giselle with Massimo Murru, who Bolle replaced as Etoile of La Scala. I wish there is a video of the performance.

[@marianoelgonzalez9833]

Sveta es lo más!!. Nunca hubo ni habrá quien la supere❤❤❤❤

[@김현주-v7l]

I am one of those who cried at the end.... Speechless........

[@fog541]

Giselle is the most beautiful ballet💋💋💋👏👏👏👏😊😊😊😊

[@blueraspberry9517]

My absolute favourite, and I am going to see Roberto and Svetlana dance it is a few short weeks time at Teatro alla Scala - :) saw it last year too and it is as faithful to this production as it can be :)

[@natasharomanov7565]

+BlueRaspberry I have seen Svetlana as Giselle in Athens in last December, during the Christmas Days! She was gorgeus!!

[@blueraspberry9517]

I was lucky enough to see them both perform Giselle on 4th October. I have to say that they have developed the role so much, the story telling even though good in the video is now far more natural and they have found nuances and little looks and angles that bring such a lot to it. I love this video, it is my bench mark for Giselle performances by anyone, but they dance it soooo much better now, if that is possible.

[@ΑφροδίτηΒγκ]

I am from Greece too

[@aylaking3341]

This is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever watched, its so magical. I’m literally crying 😭

[@blueraspberry9517]

I blub every time she sinks gracefully back to earth. I have watched many different productions of Giselle...even with Roberto and Sveta, but none create the poignant ending that this one does. Its fabulous.

[@mildredgrossman5653]

She is graceful perfection............................!

[@erikafuentealba8556]

grandiosos bailarines,ella la perfección, perfecta en guiselle y todo ballet que a bailado,él aparte de apuesto maravilloso,pareja espectacular

[@alainberlaty1394]

Excellent performance, I had the pleasure of performing this ballet many times, brings back great memories. ❤

[@victoriasaper1625]

This video is in my library, and every so often I re- watch it to see the best Giselle. Bolle is able to make her appear as if she is the weight of a feather. Svetlanàs Giselle, what can I say other than when I want to see best, I watch her. Every movement of hers conveys the love and the agony that is Giselle. Her footwork is incredible. So quick and sharp, exactly the type of footwork Balanchine demanded of his dancers. And for the most part the audience refrained from clapping until the movement was over. I wish all other audiences could do the same.

[@edcrfvtgbyhnujmikolpqazwsx]

I had goosebumps throughout the entire video. Amazing!

[@keithdanvers-colquhoun]

I have always loved this Ballet, the pair dance to absolutely perfection, and both are most graceful. Part 2 is moving, and the music so Solemn .

[@mariaphilippou]

what elegance ! what charm ! all their movements are so graceful !

[@ΦΛΩΡΕΝΤΙΑΑΘΑΝΑΣΙΑΚΑΡΑΜΠΕΤΣΟΥ]

Svetlana Zakharova is the best dancer in the world!☺☺☺

[@petetotaro9510]

Bravo! The Russians with their two and a have centeries of head start on the rest of the Ballet word, have the precision in ballet down to an extremely fantastic science!

[@giselledaniels3231]

Pete Totaro Svetlana is from Russia,alla scala ballet theatre is in Italy😉😀

[@hectorcosta7951]

J. Adore Svetlana❤️

[@darcimacht8715]

Very heartfelt interpretation! Beautiful

[@dilettabertoldi8793]

Svetlana is absolutely perfect in tech and is the only one who make me cry after Carla Fracci, she acted the perfect Giselle 💓

[@feliceagrati6533]

Coppia fantastica, affiatati e bellissimi ❤️

[@vissarionnikolaev4013]

Истинное совершенство! Оба солиста превосходны, артистичны и безупречны в танце.

[@williamdeng1870]

Two great artists of ballet!

[@angiecallahan6866]

4:16 what the frick frack paddy whack snick snack back pack thumb tack click clack it shouldn't be legal to be that graceful!!!

[@blueraspberry9517]

Angie Callahan - lol - I wondered what that was all about for a minute :). There are two elements to that, one is that Svetlana seems to have an un-natural ablilty to float any part of her body whenever the fancy takes her, and the other is that Roberto has an un-natural ability to partner her/any ol ballerina that he is asked to, to so show them off to their absolute best. He is such a generous dancer ,,,and person. The way he allows her to go off balance, and at no point worry about it, whilst looking as if she is no heavier than a pillow full of down, and all the time looking so beautiful himself is beyond me lol.

[@lindaratliff5420]

Giselle ballerina hairdo

[@carinamoses2704]

the agility in the hop-lifts - and the way they segue seamlessly into the more acrobatic and visually radiant split lifts - shows the character's mix of cool strategy and emotion and passion in this scene in a beautifully in-character way.

[@mauriziopaggio6970]

Finalmente ballerini alti e con fisici longilinei…. Per me la più bella coppia nel mondo della danza in assoluto !

[@ИринаКругловаМарозова]

Роберто Боли сущий красавец Светлане он достался как венец За муки творчества и за его оковы Этап один прошел Теперь другой Все снова Интересная пара

[@blknjiggy]

Sveta's extensions are unreal. She is as good as they come... While I prefer the fire and acting of Natalia Osipova in Don Quixote and Giselle, there is no denying Sveta's talents.

[@luceafarul579]

It’s not just her extensions, she floats across the floor in her steps more so than Osipova, I overall prefer her over Osipova even though Osipova clearly is better at more difficult jumps and spins. But ballet isn’t about just jumps and spins, it’s the whole package that for this role Svetlana has above Natalia

[@natalijaargenta959]

Oh I just love that finale; so beautiful and so sad when she sinks back into her grave after giving him the rose. ❤

[@nildabeatrizcarou1336]

La belleza y el talento de los dos es increible

[@vissarionnikolaev4013]

И кордебалет нельзя не оценить ! Такие прекрасные балерины, какая синхронность, четкость, ГИБКОСТЬ!

[@btsblackpink2300]

LOVE. BETRAYAL.DEATH are the three words our beautiful Giselle knew all to well but found FORGIVNESS in the end💘❤

[@innamoratopazzo1792]

Абсолютное совершенство существует! Какое счастье -- наслаждаться им! ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@gisellegonzalez7921]

Tears from my eyes and heart, this revolves my feelings

[@HeyItsRemi]

Omg 16:39 when he sits up sideways without using his arms to help and makes it look so effortless. When I sit up I struggle like a walrus.

[@carinamoses2704]

the delicacy of the violin and of their bourrees match and enhance one another so expressively

[@rosalopezblanco4943]

I LOVE YOU SVETLANA

[@marcleysens7716]

wow. sublime. ethereal.

[@moddymadeye]

Lloré, simplemente hermoso.

[@blueraspberry9517]

moddymadeye Me too...especially at the final scene as she descends into the grave it is just so beautiful...no other production I have seen either before or since has captured it so wonderfully.

[@carinamoses2704]

gorgeously soft and romantic arms in the supported penchee - I love the little flourish she does at the end, after she forms the fifth position, adding further detail and ornamentation

[@olgarebman2538]

Умница! Осипова в этой роли очень технична( лучше всех в мире на данный момент) , но мало пластики и спешит куда-то , а у Захаровой всё на месте и физические данные и техника и пластика и партнёр (OMG!) . Всё в балансе , браво !!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@AnnePlatonic]

Eva Evdokimova was and remains the most breathtaking Giselle of all time, unique and brilliant, sublime and other worldy.

They are wonderful together.

[@carinamoses2704]

beautiful closing gesture with the flower, that also illuminates the flower-shaped and star-shaped gestures she and the corps made earlier. so touching and so lovely.

[@esterbalbi4558]

sublime!

[@sedekiman824]

Fonteyn and Nureyev sublime in this ballet. It is here on You Tube. At times would like to wind her up, so over emoting, and stick thin. He a glorious dancer, and wonderful proportions.

[@pauliberg3492]

wonderful--- serenely beautiful...

[@mariaengracio4849]

"SVETA" IS BREATHTAKING!...PERFECTION AND SHE HAS "SOMETHING" SO SPIRITUAL THAT I FEEL IN MY SOUL ... SHE SEEMS NOT TO BELONG TO THIS WORLD WHEN SHE DANCE!... I LOVE VERY, VERY MUCH NATALIA OSIPOVA (MY MOST BELOVED "DEMON") BUT, I THINK, THEY HAVE DIFERENT APROCHES TO THE DANCE...

I still like Baryshnikov's performance. He adds the royal elegance and engaging head moves to this ballet.

I kove the fact that the Conductor doesn't rush it. Plenty of time for Svetlana to move slowly and fully through the movements.

I mean...fairies exist... as simple as that! :)

[@alicegaiaangelinafornasari7874]

OMG! they are beautyful

[@blueraspberry9517]

Roberto and Svetlana have a special partnership - no matter what they dance they always seem to dance as one...but this always leaves me howling my head off - it is so beautiful. Roberto is every womans dream Prince, and every dancers dream partner, While Svetlana is incomparably elegant, and light - she almost floats around the stage. I am privileged enough to be going to watch them both in 4 weeks in Giselle at Teatro alla Scala....not the first time I have seen them dance but my first Giselle with them both. I have watched this video so many times I hope they dont make too many changes lol -- I have every step ingrained on my memory :)

[@blueraspberry9517]

It was fabulous - I am going to go again in October to see them do it all over. However - I was a tad disappointed because of the ending - Svetlana didnt sink down into the grave with Roberto grasping the rose as if willing her not to go...I always howl then and it didnt happen ...instead she burree'd off exit left - not sure why. As for the rest - I could have been watching the video!!

[@nikole1380]

OMG THEY JUST DABBED AT 0:35!!!!!!
