Very lovely. Idk why people have a problem with her. The technique is good, she just made Raymonda more powerful and elegant looking than melty and soft. I like this a lot and think she did a wonderful job.
After Marie Agnès Gillot, she is the only dancer from OPB to have this kind of fire on top of a magnificent technique. I wish they had nominated her before she left for the States, maybe one Day, this variation suits her beautiful lines and firm character, bravo Mathilde !
I cannot disagree with you more. I won’t throw names in here, bc it’s my opinion, and I don’t engage in arguments about such ephemera....I don’t ever couch my opinions as absolutes, either, bc the arts constitute such a highly subjective world where “the best” doesn’t exist-it isn’t a horse race, for goodness’ sake-just a long list of superb artists, each with singular qualities of his/her own. The amazement for me is watching that individual expression come to life!
Sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me!
Je suis absolument fascinée par la perfection technique du haut du corps de Mathilde et par ses ports de bras particulièrement. Ses mouvements sont fluides et précis, vraiment, c'est sidérant.
Хорошо,но нет той грациозности и отточенности,что есть и завораживает у Сильви,Гиллем,Элизабет Платель,Изабель Гирен.в редакции Рудольфа Нуреева.!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just to mention... Råmondá (aka Raymonda) is a ballet set in Hungary/Transylvania. It is Not a "Russian" ballet, though the Russians cultivated it as such (Petipa choreographed to Glazunov's score) at the end of the 19th century (and particularly during the Soviet-era). Many Russian ballet companies (Kirov/Bolshoi/Perm/Mariinsky/Chabukiani, etc... and Ballet Russe, etc...) staged the ballet many times, and it was brought to the West from those productions. However, it is a ballet set during the medieval-period when French knights were fighting for the Crusades (or more accurately the Austro-Hungarian empire against the Saracen-Turks) in the Danube and Balkan regions. The Ballet, and in particular this variation of Raymonda is also not Slavic (nor 'slavian') - It is based upon stories and dances from Hungarian and Transylvania-Gypsy dances because Raymonda is (suppose to be) a Transylvania Princess. That is why the Third Act is also referred to as: Pas Classique Hongrois (aka Pas de Dix) because of the Hungarian/Transylvanian origin of the story...
Well, the real art has no nationality, despite the fact that Petipa lived in France, worked mostly in Russia and had so many russian wifes and children. The first perfomance of Raymonda was in Mariinsky Theatre, St. Petersburg. So nothing wrong with that if actually somebody calls it russian masterpiece. Can you call Romeo and Juliet an english tragedy or maybe italian because of it origin? Maybe both of them.
It is indeed useful information for those who don't really know much abou ballet. However please note that Chabukiani isn't russion ballet theatre of ballet school. It is Georgian. Vakhtang Chabukiani wasn't russian dancer he was Georgian as well as great Nina Ananiashvili is Georgian. Thnx for your attention 😊
Nathalia Bessmertnova ( Bolchoi 1989 ) and Noella Pontois ( Paris-Opera 1983 ) go beyong coreography no only with a perfect technic as here , they were the first Stars in an other erea j understand why .
I think it is not a good idea to copy of any Sylvie Gillem interpretation of any ballet variations. This great dancer should have own version with own style.
come on ... the fifth position at the begining is (a sort of) insult to S. Guillem. Have a look at Noella Pontois she 's somehow as imperial as Sylvie Guillem.
+George Ou Noella Pontois is imperious in her characterization of Raymonda. See her YT solo variation. You can see the influence of Rudolf Nureyev, with whom she danced this particular performance.
You must be joking! This girl looks like a first grader compared to Sylvie. Sure, the choreography is the same, but nothing else is. The charisma, the presence, the consistency - nothing. Not to mention her technique is a pale copy of Sylvie's if any.
I dk why this dancer has so much starting and stopping in her dancing....she seems to have too many seconds between phrases where she’s not doing anything. The choreography seems to be different from what I’m used to, as well. Two of my favorite dancers in this role are Sylvia Guillem (ua-cam.com/video/YjWrI5ityFw/v-deo.html) and Tamara Rojo (ua-cam.com/video/Szn_vDj9_C0/v-deo.html). This video is with Steven McRae, fabulous!
Indeed she is a very good dancer but in my opinion she is much better in a "spanish" role like Don Quichotte than in a "russian" ballet like Raymonda. She doesn't have in herself the "deepth" or"dignity" of slavian culture. She is "warm" and "seductiv" like Spain

+katia g. Je suis d'accord, Katia.
Tellement beau 😍
Obsessed with this variation
Have been watching multiple ballerinas.
❤️
Viste la versión de Paloma Herrera?
Have seen many interpretations of this variation and this one was gorgeous! Definitely a favourite.
Nathalia Bessermertnova Bolchoi 1989 ans Noella Pontois Paris Opera December 1983 ! if you have eyes .

Transylvania is in Romania
@@cestmoi3256 Прочитав ваш грубый комментарий, хочется забыть русский язык. Даже не удосужились понять то, что прокомментировали :(
Like your style and interpretation .... very strong and clean technique, Wonderful
Just beautiful!
A lot of charisma and expression.
Шикарное исполнение. Руки вообще изумительные, отточенность во всем.
Pontois, Maurin, Guillem, Alexandrova
Sylvie
美しい
¡Very Good!
Bravo!
pero que hermosooooooo
GEORGE you are absolutely right!!! There was NO ONE Raymonda I cared after Sylvie. But now....
たまに聞くんだコレ！🐱
Ну,Матильда! Порвала просто! Это пожалуй лучшее в мире исполнение!
это сарказм такой ?
👏👏👏🙌🤗
But check out Marie-Agnès Gillot
Yeah defintely she's the best Raymonda I have seen, even better than Guillem !
Nathalia Bessmertnova ( Bolchoi 1989 ) and Noella Pontois ( Paris-Opera 1983 ) go beyong coreography no only with a perfect technic as here , they were the first Stars in an other erea j understand why .
👏👏👏👏👏👏🤗🙂🙌🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is the closest I've ever seen to Sylvie Guillem

anyhow the solo or the whole ballet re-emerdeged through Naitre Noureev
What act is this variation from?
thesmolbeandancer 3rd act :)

V R Noella Pontois Paris Opera 1983 ; Nathalia Bessermert Bolchoi 1989 ours tastes are different
Indeed she is a very good dancer but in my opinion she is much better in a "spanish" role like Don Quichotte than in a "russian" ballet like Raymonda. She doesn't have in herself the "deepth" or"dignity" of slavian culture. She is "warm" and "seductiv" like Spain
I agree
ECmte very accurate and interesting observation, which I share.
My thoughts exactly !
I really like her interpretation. The only two I have liked that I've seen are Plisetskaya, and this one.
Not a fan of this choreography
Someone put the wind up key in her and gave it a few spins. Technically good, emotionally not there
Sad, it isn't like the Paris Opera didn't give her a ton of opportunities to get to the next level. She just didn't rise to the occasion.
Не то
太生硬
Mmmmmmmm ballerinas 🥵🥵
