Im 18yo and Im going to start ballet now and this is because of Royal Ballet! Im glad because I always wanted to dance ballet but I didnt have money and now I can pay for it. Im living a dream
Honestly the best version of this pas de deux I’ve ever seen! Sarah just looks so believably broken by the end and Vadim looks so utterly desperate to keep her alive. Absolutely heartbreaking 💔💔
I agree about this being better. I just went and watched the Cope and Guillem version and I think Sarah does an amazing job of making you think it is actually HER that is dying, and mustering the very last drop of her strength.
Not everything has to be a competition on who is better! This version is stunning and so are other versions! All dancers are different,you can’t compare them!
Vadim Muntagirov is phenomenonal in everything he does, but I think this is his very best role. It’s heartbreaking. He is such a sweetheart and a romantic soul (just my opinion from watching all his videos), and he portrays the characters perfectly
I have the dvd and this part never ceases to make me cry. The artistry of Sarah and Vadim is absolutely phenomenal. Lamb/Muntagirov and Nunez/Muntagirov are the best partnerships out there, I can never have enough of seeing them working together. More Lamb/Mutnagirov, please, they don't work together often enough.
She portrayed her character really really well. For someone like me who have no idea nor any background about this ballet, I immediately get the message they're trying to portray. Very very much impressive 😍
I agree because i know very well Manon the French Novel of the eighteen century and also 2 fantastic opera manon of the French Gounod a wonderful music and Manon Lescaut of the Italian Puccini, also amazing music
An extremely difficult pas de deux, for the woman especially to be at once so seemingly limp and weak, while moving in ways that require utterly steely inner strength. Amazing choreography. The soloists here do indeed catch all the tragic anguish of the story... alas, one of the oldest stories on earth
Absolutely heartbreaking!! Sarah portrays Manon as finally grasping the consequences of her careless actions, while Vadim portrays De Grieux as always loving her in spite of her betrayals. Both dancers capture the emotions of the entire ballet. C ❤ ❤ ❤
Saw jasim naghdi and william Bracewell last night. What an incredible performance by both. It was like looking ar Anthony dowell in disguise. Those slow awkward movements are incredibly difficult and he pulled them off to perfection. Heavenly performance by both her acting was incredible.
i am speechless. thank you so very much for uploading this PDD. vadim makes it look so easy. in those twist throw lifts he is so very strong, he never looks unsure as to his hold on lamb. and she really doesn't hold anything back when she collapses in his arms. total abandonment, knowing he not going to drop her. only part where it seems the lift is a bit of a struggle is 1:10. basically doing a dead lift! i thought cope and guillam were powerful, but this duo are also so very good. please add the beginning of the PDD when they are both on the ground. that is important!
Heartbreaking and Breathtaking!!💖Muntagirov and Lamb truly embody the agony and passion of Manon and Des Grieux trying to hold on to someone you love but mortality will always be the factor the shadow of death!!❤She truly looked broken shattered deceased and he desperate obsessed loving just to keep his beloved alive Bravo!!💞
i know its like having gone without gable saying "quite frankly dear i dont give a dam". Its so emotional watching him shake her and then crying. one of the greatest ballets ever.
I feel so moved by Sarah and Vadim... Thank you ROH for posting the video. I’d just like to join the request below and ask, could you please upload the last bit of this scene? Thank you again!
Non saprei chi scegliere...in realtà è bellissimo anche questa versione...la ballerina rende bene l'idea del totale esaurimento fisico che la porta a morte...
The most tragic ballet I've ever watched and in a way that Giselle or R&J are not. At all. The most operatic if you wish. The PDD first act and the subsequent scene at her bedroom are the high points for them. From there onwards is downwards. And the heartbreak at this PDD is the hardest to watch. As a matter of fact you can witness that at the end of the ballet. Check, especially the female dancer expressios. This ballet was chosen by Aurelie Dupont for her farewell along Roberto Bolle.

Eleanor Copp They are indeed great, but no one beats Cope and Guillem in this one, if you ask me!
@@sylfiden1 I agree! Guillem and Cope are the definitive couple in this pas de deux.
I agree about this being better. I just went and watched the Cope and Guillem version and I think Sarah does an amazing job of making you think it is actually HER that is dying, and mustering the very last drop of her strength.
Meravigliosi

These Sarah clips are a huge boost whilst recovering from Covid. Feeling better already.😀
Sarah is The most wonderful dancer..she and Vadim dance so beautifully together in this ballet
The hauntingly beautiful music combined with the tragic tale of Manon, choreographed by the masterful Kenneth Macmillan - perfection!
i had to watch this a second time. the pain in her face was unbelievable!

Thank you for posting Sarah and Vadim! So believeably volnurable and breathtakingly perfect they are!
2:43 and 3:03 catch me as i fall, how beautiful
Her expressions are everything.
The acting is just beyond amazing here💕
Makes me cry every single time
One of the best pas des deux ever choreographed.
True chemistry between both of them 🔥❤️❤️🌺🌷👏
No entiendo cómo los pas de deux de manon pueden ser tan perfectos y hermosos, NO LO ENTIENDO!!!!!!!! son divinos
Did you see Sylvie Guillem ??
Beautiful coreography, good Job Sarah Lamb, nice performance both, lovely.
i am speechless. thank you so very much for uploading this PDD. vadim makes it look so easy. in those twist throw lifts he is so very strong, he never looks unsure as to his hold on lamb.

only part where it seems the lift is a bit of a struggle is 1:10.
basically doing a dead lift!
i thought cope and guillam were powerful, but this duo are also so very good.
please add the beginning of the PDD when they are both on the ground. that is important!
Breathtaking performance!
Gorgeous!! Love it so much. Sarah and vadim are such an amazing pair.
You cut the best part: Des Grieux realizing she's gone.
Nooooo! Why'd you cut off the end ? 😭 never mind I have my ticket for the 12th of October to see Nela and Roberto do this .... too excited for words
Acto con un final Profundamente emotivo y amoroso, como una gran despedida de alguien que se aleja.
One of the all time greatest PDD's.
Vadim-such a generous and present partner. I’m a Nela fan, but this is still the best, most visceral end pas de deux I’ve seen.
Heartbreaking and Breathtaking!!💖Muntagirov and Lamb truly embody the agony and passion of Manon and Des Grieux trying to hold on to someone you love but mortality will always be the factor the shadow of death!!❤She truly looked broken shattered deceased and he desperate obsessed loving just to keep his beloved alive Bravo!!💞

does anybody know the name of this piece? it sounds so pretty and sad
It's an orchestral arrangement of a section of Massenet's oratory La Vierge, called "Rêve infini! Divine extase". Massenet's music is the loveliest 💔
what is this piece called?
Wonderful ❤️
what is title of this dance?
Manon- Swamp Pas de Deux
Wow
💕💕💕
❤
oh my god
Beutiful 😖
Lindp demais
Damn, Vadim is packing.
Omg
Ah, Massenet.
Oh my gad
She's as dead as my pointe shoes😨
*sob*
Prognosis negative...
Too slow
Sylvie does it better
Bad
