The Mistake Waltz: Dancer's Perspective (Mistakes We've ALL Made 😅😅)

[@hippolyte90]

Also one of the characters forgot to take off her glasses before going onstage😄

[@balletreign]

It’s a small detail but it adds so much to her character 🤣🤣

[@lazykbys]

It might be because it makes her stand out, but she is definitely my favorite.

[@cacklebarnacle15]

I've seen versions where almost all of them had some wardrobe mistake going on. 'Forgot' to remove legwarmers, wrong hair accessory or put it in wrong, slightly off colour clothes from the others etc.

[@jimrodarmel8512]

It's probably for the character, but I can imagine nowadays a dancer wearing glasses simply because they have to, some visual handicaps can't be corrected any other way, and it's unfair not to allow reasonable accommodation.

[@J.A.LewisWriter]

@@cacklebarnacle15 I wonder if anyone's ever done it with their false eyelashes glued on wrong.

[@MoonyAJ]

The Mistake Waltz is an absolute scream. It takes real skill to make deliberate "mistakes" look like real mistakes - the late comedienne Victoria Wood doing bad cruise ship singing is another great example - and these Paris Opera dancers NAIL IT! I laugh until I hurt at the slow moving of the arms into the correct position at the very end! Hilarious.

[@balletreign]

Glad u had a good laugh! Pieces like this are so wholesome and refreshing 😆😆

[@mellieg.7543]

This dance and your commentary on it is hilarious. 😂 Probably the worst mistake i made as a dancer is the time I got dizzy during a performance and started facing downstage when everyone else was facing upstage. I still wake up in a cold sweat remembering that.

[@balletreign]

OMGGG 😂😂 we’ve def done that too… fun memories 😅😅. Thanks for watching, laughing, and sharing! ✨🫰🏻🫰🏻

[@mermaidopulence8539]

In the ballet that we are currently rehearsing for there are several times where I'm the front line girl. During one rehearsal I totally messed up and had the wrong hands but I fully committed to it. What made it even funnier is that I tried to slowly switch arms even though I was in the very front and the teacher clearly sees me but we all had a good laugh about it after the run through.

[@mycroft16]

I will never EVER forget the first time I saw this. Absolutely damn near died watching it. I'm a pianist, but I've done my fair share of musicals, on stage and back stage, and in the pit. It's hard enough to do it all correct, but when doing it correct is making mistakes... that actually almost takes MORE skill because you're so trained to NOT make those mistakes. From pure raw chaos, which is what a lot of those big ensemble dance numbers can look like to the audience as dancers are passing through and between each other rapidly etc... to the wrong positions and the simultaneous glares. It's just unbelievably hilarious in such a serious, self-aware way that shouldn't work, but does.

[@dronesclubhighjinks]

Have you seen “Ballet Magnifique - Ballet gone bad”? It’s a contemporary version of classical ballet which starts off with something tiny wrong and it goes from there. It’s escalated by a jealous ballerina who thinks she should be centerstage instead of the girl who actually is centerstage. It is absolutely brilliant! It requires multiple viewings because there are a lot of details and there are considerably more dancers on stage at the same time than in this “mistake waltz.“ Thank you very much for explaining all the things that were wrong and how difficult it is to do it wrong on purpose. I wonder how often they had to practice folding themselves up or being in whatever awkward positions that the men were carrying them on and off the stage in! I had never heard of this ballet before and I’m so glad you made a video about it! Maybe someday you could do a video about this “Ballet Magnifique” - it’s from Texas!! Maybe you could even interview the choreographer or the dancers! The video is on KZbin but I can’t attach a link for some reason. Have a wonderful week! 🙏😄🧡🌺

The Mistake Waltz brings back flashbacks to my previous end of term concerts. Last year when my dance school did a simplified production of Sleeping Beauty, and one girl fell over while en pointe in a fairy circle. I also had a "when do we get up?" moment when we were supposed to run off after the curtain came down, but I half stood up too soon (thankfully it was blackout and you couldn't see it on the recording).

[@karenjones9961]

Jerome Robbins was not only a genius choreographer, but he was able to create slapstick-spoof ballet. He was a comedian. In 2024 "The Concert" is STILL call 911 hilarious, and "The Mistake Waltz" in particular is still insane🤣🤣🤣)))! FYI, NYCB's and Covent Garden's men run faster than POB's men, if you can imagine that! I wish this ballet was revived more in the repertory, because today it's rarely staged. Thank you ladies for finally commenting on this piece!

[@hensku.3000]

I love the Mistake Waltz so much! We learned it at school and it’s the funniest choreo I’ve ever done. I was so inspired that later I taught it to my students as well and they loved it too. We need more comedic ballets like The Concert! 🙌💚

[@balletreign]

Awww that must have been so much fun handing down that experience to your students! Def need more wholesome comedy ballets 👏🏻👏🏻

[@dronesclubhighjinks]

“Ballet Magnifique - Ballet Gone Bad” is on KZbin for your viewing pleasure. I think it should have more exposure although it does have 1 million views in four years. ❤

[@samsignorelli]

In the marching arts, you're taught that if you make a mistake, make it like YOU'RE the one who's right...eve if you move early and freeze (story time coming), going back to your original set us distracting. In 1987 I was performing with an all-age drum & bugle corps. During rehearsal on a show day, we added a 4 count drum fill between "Moonlight Seranade" (our opening statement) and "Take the A Train." On the first note of "A Train" we'd step off....fur the 4 count fill, we stood still. All rehearsal, I nailed the change. Then came the competitive run....we finish the last chord of "Seranade" and on the drum fill I pivoted into my first "A Train" drill instead of waiting those 4 counts. As soon as my weight started to shift and I was committed to the pivot, I knew I was early....so on count 1 of the fill, I planted my left foot and froze in that step-off position for the remainder...continuing the drill when i was SUPPISED to. I'm sure I stuck out...but had I returned to the pre-pivot position, it would've been worse.

[@lumischwartz]

YAY! "The Concert" by Jerome Robbins is one of my favorite ballet! This is so exciting! ❤

[@balletreign]

It’s gonna be fun! Can’t wait to see y’all at the premiere! ✨✨✨

[@cynthiat6505]

LOVE LOVE LOVE TheConcert!!!

[@lumischwartz]

Gah! I fell asleep before the premiere! 😅 ​ I love love this piece because it totally broadened my spectrum of ballet and that ballet CAN BE HILARIOUS when it's done right! It was groundbreaking for me because all the ballets I watched before this were all very serious performances 🫥 Before I encountered "Mistake Waltz," my spectrum of ballet was only limited to Swan Lake, Nutcracker, and Petrushka (traumatized my childhood! 😢 Love the music but VERY scared of the ballet) and Petrushka was the reason why I stopped broadening my ballet spectrum. 😂 But "The Concert" totally made a breakthrough and now I know several ballet works! And thanks to you girls, I can understand the story/techniques of many ballets better in order to appreciate all the hard work that goes into each performance. 🥰 Anyway, "The Concert" is very endearing for me because of CHOPIN'S (I ❤Chopin) music and I love how pianist is part of the performance 😂😂😂! I also LOVE Paris Opera Ballet version the most so I was so happy when you brought this version for your review! ❤❤❤ Thank you so much for reviewing and I wouldn't mind if you girls covered the whole performance~ 😉😂😂😂 @@balletreign

[@divab63]

Mistake Waltz is so hard! Jerome Robbins was a mastermind in creating inventive choreography. As a dancer you want to be in line and this choreography requires mistakes and owning it with a character. So much fun as an audience but very hard as a dancer.

[@bedroombunny9529]

Making a mistake is one of those things that when you need to do it on purpose it is incredibly hard. It's like the Catch 22 of performances.

[@wingeddangernoodle]

Your comment about the running reminded me of my favorite moment in my recent stage career. I was in the ensemble of a production of Much Ado About Nothing (possibly Shakespeare's funniest play imo) and i was on stage "setting up for the masquerade". The bit that got the audience to laugh every night was me running off stage as fast as i could in my little heels in four layers of edwardian skirts, arms wheeling

[@sharonkaczorowski8690]

I love Chopin…possibly my favorite composer, though it’s hard to chose. I’ve never seen this before…how hysterically funny! Takes a lot of skill to do that!

You guys should totally do an appreciation on the moment in Act 2 of Coppelia where she's messing with Dr. Coppelius for this series. Its sooo funny, and in a ballet that isn't meant to be a spoof in the way this or Alice is.

[@lilliedoubleyou3865]

LOVE the mistake waltz! Great choice for topic. I’m so curious if this has ever been performed in Russia. For some reason the image of the Mariinsky or Bolshoi soloists performing this makes me giggle. It’s like the ultra elite having fun and clowning around.

[@karenjones9961]

I think the closest that the Russians have come to Robbins' "The Concert" is the Bolshoi's "The Bright Stream." Uliana Lopatkina loved to dance Spuck's "Grand Pas De Deux," and the Mariinsky audience loved it. In the Soviet era, the powers that were wouldn't have allowed ballets like these to be staged which didn't promote their ideology or propaganda. However, there were some exceptions. For example, at the 1st Moscow International Ballet Competition back in 1969, the young Mikhail Baryshnikov won the Gold medal with a spoof ballet created especially for him by Leonid Jacobson called "Vestris." Another example is "The Match," by Tom Schiling which was choreographed for Ekaterina Maximova and Vladimir Vasiliev. It was a spoof ballet of a tennis match.

I am not a dancer, never have been. But I did rythmic gymnastics at school for a while, it was a mandatory thing for the girls. We had a performance that we did so many times that at one point... There was a small group of us towards the front to the left from the perspective of the audience. We were in perfect sync. But we had gotten a few steps ahead of ourselves. Our parents knew we were wrong because it was like the 3rd or 4th time they'd shown up to see us do the same thing all over again lol. I know my parents teased me for it, but had to admit that even if we were wrong, they wouldn't know if it'd been the first time they saw it. I made the mistake of following the lead of the people in front of me but when we spun around and saw what the people behind us were doing, we corrected ourselves and the rest of it went off with no further mistakes. Still a fun memory, though. 😆

Would you please do an analysis of Ashton's Symphonic Variations? How it could be interpreted along with some pointers for approaching other abstract works.

[@jimrodarmel8512]

Most of these apply to other genres as well, although mostly performance issues. Regarding last minute changes: Oh no! George had an injury, who can fill in? I'm the only who can dance his part, but someone will have to cover mine! I can do yours, but we'll have to change the choreography because of my thing... Can Frieda and Willie change places? Then we can keep the choreography. OK, but remember I'm shorter so don't clobber me in the face! Alright, everybody remember your changes ... we're on! I once began a dance I wasn't even in, realized my mistake as we started to dance, and then ran offstage in character as if that was part of the choreography. Another time I lost my grip and dropped a staff in a choreographed beat pattern; my counterpart ad-libbed a bludgeoning attack (with maniacal laugh) as if we were in a fight. Oh also, my partner frequently reminds me of a choral performance I was in where the pianist jumped ahead to the variation that was supposed to be in the repeat, and the conductor was violently shaking his head, "No!" I'd like to see a performance sometime where I can see the comedy parts for the accompanist, I didn't know about those. I think I saw this very same recording before.

[@mnemosyned]

The Mistake Waltz is so much fun 😄 I'd love to see your take on the Ballets Trockadero! I saw them live once and was in TEARS. One dancer "fell" off the stage at one point and let out a scream so loud and unexpected (and very deeply MALE) some people in the front row shrieked 🤣

Not a dancer, but a former cello player here. Also did calisthenics and other performing arts stuff whilst at school. I remember well being told if you stuff it up just wing it and pretend you know what's going on! I was 13 and a friend and I played a cello recital in front of a crowded hall. I made the mistake of looking too closely at the audience and completely lost track of the music. From then on in I played the A string like A,A,A,A,A whilst my friend completed the piece. Lucky no-one but my friend seemed to notice too much. That was hilarious, and my first time playing the Mistake Recital. Also we did dance as part of a Girl Guides thing. I was always the kid who had to practise TWICE as much as other people and be taken aside by the teacher. We got there in the end, though. Bad nerves and stage fright are terrible things! ❤❤🎉🎉💃💃

[@EmL-kg5gn]

I used to do music and one time, on stage in front of an audience, I told the well-known COMPOSER of one of my pieces that it was my least favourite and that I hated the entire genre 😭😭😭 I did tell my teacher I didn’t want to do it but she made me and I had no idea who this guy was because I hadn’t listened to a word she told me about what I was meant to be doing (it was a demonstration, so I was supposed to demonstrate my pieces while he talked about them and also kindly gave me some advice). I imagine my teacher was as embarrassed as I was when I realised 💀

[@EmL-kg5gn]

As unhappy as I was about the whole thing I would NEVER have been so rude if I’d paid attention and realised the guy doing the demonstration was also the composer. I would’ve put much more effort into playing the piece well too 🤣 The worst part is I was high school age so it wasn’t even endearing childhood bluntness. It was just an absolute disaster.

[@sashafarrington5318]

I love the “Spoof” pieces in performing arts. As well as this ballet, theater also has “The Play that Goes wrong” (which is partially interactive with the audience. 15/10 could not recommend more) and “Peter goes wrong” which is havent seen but is a similar concept. It takes so much skill ironically to get everything wrong on purpose. The artistry behind these professionals mistakes is amazing. “The Show Must Go On!”

I had a horrible thing that would happen to me when i did ballet. I would be one of the only students that woukd know the entire dance, so could practice from home.

The ‘wrong place’ thing is something that is traumatizing. “That’s not your spot!” “Tell Indi that! He thinks he’s supposed to be by Pepper! Soccer kicks him.” Indi, Pepper and Soccer were horses. At the end-of-camp performance, my horse (Indi) was certain we were walking beside Pepper. We were supposed to be walking beside the horse with the foulest temper in camp. Indi finally bit her… in the middle of the performance ring! Naturally, Soccer kicked Indi. So he bit her again. Myself and the other rider were thrown while the directors came in and pulled the horses apart. No one forgot that day!
