I will never forget an article featuring Syvie in a 1980's Interview magazine. One comment regarding her was: " the one dancer no company can afford to lose".
when she left the Opera de Paris for the Royal Opera in London (double treason), the French minister of culture, Jack Lang was shout out at the House of Representatives, it was almost a state matter !
@@blue14428 it was a joke ! I understand why she left ....POB rules are very strict and even now some Etoiles are leaving like François Alu recently, but it didn't make a big fuss like Sylvie Guillem's departure. !
This has always been my favorite Ballet! Rudolf's choreography, well ahead of his time, and the exquisite Sylvie Guillem makes ballet look effortless, he precision and grace and versatility, even tap dancing here way into being the best ballerina of all time.

I saw this production on stage in the 80's while going through a very challenging time. Cinderella's entrance into the Ball, the flashing bulbs like stars, mysterious darkness, the sublime music - it was transporting then and a reminder now how beauty can heal the soul. Thank you for sharing this with us!
The first time I saw Sylvie Guillem was this very ballet shown on tv one christmas circa 1985. She is totally awe inspiring. What feet, what arms!!! Nuryev's choreography is amazing too
I watched this magnificent ballet again from start to finish, this is quintessential ballet theater. Rudolph Nureyev was an amazing choreographer with unique detail to music, timing and characterization which are unpredictable here. How wonderful he made this Cinderella for the young superstar in the making, Sylvie Guillem. Exquisite.
This is the very first time I saw Sylvie on tape. I could not believe at what I was seeing. Now after so many years I understand the humor, the spirituality, the greatness of both Nureyev and the company and of course how immense was Sylvie's talent not only technical and physical but also what a great theatrical instinctive and natural approach she had when impersonating a charachter.
Seeing the last scene 1:52:50 when Nureyef and Sylvie danced together, I realized that he made this ballet because he wanted to dance with her in his last minute of his life.... I mean Sylvie is such a special ballerina. Just splendid.
" И весна и любовь " Там, где горы встречаются С морем! В синеве перламутровых Звёзд! Слышу песни, Мелодии снова, Так влекут И манят за собой! Я читаю стихи, Ты с улыбкой. Смотришь искренне, Долго, Всерьёз. Я любуюсь тобой, Моё солнце! Каждый выдох И вдох Мы вдвоём! В каждой песне Рисуем сюжеты. Наших дивных Заоблачных Грёз! Моя девочка, Вечное лето! И весна И цветы И любовь!
I was actually lucky to dance this version (the lead role). Rudolf was still alive and still dancing the same role. Can't even remember how many times he stuck that darn cigar in my eye in act three...
This is lovely!, the choreography by the great Rudolf Nureyev is wonderful, fabulous!, I love to see Rudy dancing with his cigar. Many thanks for sharing it!
Гениальный Нуриев!! Потрясающее слияние музыки и танца! И непонятно, то ли музыка рождается из танца, то ли танец из музыки)) Браво!!!? Сильвия великолепна!
Brilliant original choreography and interpretation by Nureyev ...whole idea .. love it so much ..wish it was available in better quality ...always low quality film back then :-(((
Last time I checked it was not available on DVD, although another performance by the Paris Opera Ballet (without Sylvie!) is. Go figure. I'll keep googling it every once in a while. They have to release it one of these days!
This shit is ridiculous! I feel very honored to be human right now, These beings have mastered their craft in such a way that is out of this world magical. And not to mention their connection to the music. TAKE NOTE KIDS!
Deaf defining beauty unlike anything I seen before. I chance of justice system working without flaw or doubt. A kings ransom. Good to the last drop. I believe justice was served.
If this is really all Rudy's choreography, I take back every unkind word I've ever had for his choreography being redundant and having nothing to do with the music! Although the beginning of the second act drags a little and feels unfocused, once the main characters enter, it picks up. Guillem is magic, and what he's done with the choreo of the step-sisters (plus their presentation) is hilarious and has most of my joints aching in sympathy (I think it's Guerin at 1:02? Where she's briefly standing sort of in 5th on point but she's bearing her weight *on* her arches?) You have to really be good to dance this badly without killing your body. I have to admit I didn't quite follow the sense of juxtaposing Guillem's sweet Charlie Chaplin impersonation (she taps and soft-shoes! I swear she can do anything!) with 2 fairies followed by Groucho Marx followed by two more fairies, but I liked the way he moved all four groups around the stage. And wasn't this broadcast as a Christmas special by a lot of PBS stations right around the time home video was becoming a thing? I missed it then and have always wanted to see it. Thanks for posting!
It seems that many of us have been waiting to see this ballet again after many years. But it still doesn't seem to be available on DVD (or VHS for that matter). I don't understand why since it was filmed for television and it is such a beautiful performance with Sylvie Guillem and even the pleasure of seeing Nureyev. Has anyone found it?
Sadly no ..I just have a poor vhs recording ..so grainy ..it is sad so many great performances were not recorded ..or recorded then locked up and hidden .. very frustrating disappointing ...upsetting ... :-((
This is a wonderful version indeed. What do you mean by "a real show"? This was performed by the Paris Opera Ballet, and filmed for television. I think it's available on DVD.
Retirement as theme in this play. Holding on to those prescience years old age and the like. Unlikely illness tramp under or feet. To stones the return unknown of any kind but our kind. Finest photographs leaves us in mystery.
oi como q será q ela fez para entra nesse negócio de dança peça,,, pq meu amigo primo queria porque é o sonho dele mais o pai dele não vai pagar,,,, tem de graça? upp
Pointe began with Taglioni, I believe (and Maria Camargo was the first dancer to shorten her skirt and remove the heels from her shoes so she could do more complicated jumps). There's a good video on YT done by the Royal Ballet on the evolution of pointe work.
I don't think this has anything to do with Ashton (in part because his two step-sisters are guys in drag) but I'm wondering if he might have adapted some of the choreography the Bolshoi used to use (so Grigorovich?)

Cinderella's entrance into the Ball, the flashing bulbs like stars, mysterious darkness, the sublime music - it was transporting then and a reminder now how beauty can heal the soul. Thank you for sharing this with us!
The ending is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen done in dance. I cried.
This is absolutly Brilliant! thank you Nureyev and thank you Sylvie this moment will last for ever
Musicality of this choreography is just incredible. The moment when she portraits Charlie Chaplin is my favourite one. Magnificent production.
I really love how the mother and two sisters aren't as graceful as they could be; it's a very nice and humorous touch!
The first time I saw Sylvie Guillem was this very ballet shown on tv one christmas circa 1985. She is totally awe inspiring. What feet, what arms!!! Nuryev's choreography is amazing too
This recording is more than 10 years old.. but up to now it"s the best I ever seen; Of course Rudolf Noureev was the
chorereapher.
Filmé et enregistré en 1987

Rudolph Nureyev was an amazing choreographer with unique detail to music, timing and characterization which are unpredictable here.

And the Paris Opera Orchestra...WOW!!!!
What a treasure.
Million thanks to whoever added this!

I am speachless. Nureyev is a master choreographer. All the way.
Seeing the last scene 1:52:50 when Nureyef and Sylvie danced together, I realized that he made this ballet because he wanted to dance with her in his last minute of his life.... I mean Sylvie is such a special ballerina. Just splendid.
Dearest Mlle Sylvie. Thank you for showing us how strong a dancer can look.
А вы говорите,гениями не рождаются, становятся, да-слов НЕТ ГЕНИАЛЬНАЯ!!!
I think this music is absolutely beautiful! My dance school just put this show on. Now, it is one of my favorite ballets ever!
" И весна и любовь "
Там, где горы встречаются
С морем!
В синеве перламутровых
Звёзд!
Слышу песни,
Мелодии снова,
Так влекут
И манят за собой!
Я читаю стихи,
Ты с улыбкой.
Смотришь искренне,
Долго,
Всерьёз.
Я любуюсь тобой,
Моё солнце!
Каждый выдох
И вдох
Мы вдвоём!
В каждой песне
Рисуем сюжеты.
Наших дивных
Заоблачных
Грёз!
Моя девочка,
Вечное лето!
И весна
И цветы
И любовь!
I was actually lucky to dance this version (the lead role). Rudolf was still alive and still dancing the same role. Can't even remember how many times he stuck that darn cigar in my eye in act three...
Certainly lucky ..it is so rare ...who cares about the cigar if you managed to this ..unless they were all useless
This is lovely!, the choreography by the great Rudolf Nureyev is wonderful, fabulous!, I love to see Rudy dancing with his cigar. Many thanks for sharing it!
I'm totally moved, what a genius Nureyev was! Thank you for posting this!!!
toujours aussi merveilleux, Sylvie tout simplement sublime! les 10 dernières minutes sont un moment de grâce absolue!
I taped this decades ago .... I am thrilled to find it again. Thank you!
Гениальный Нуриев!!
Потрясающее слияние музыки и танца!
И непонятно, то ли музыка рождается из танца, то ли танец из музыки))
Браво!!!?
Сильвия великолепна!
Thank you so much for posting! I have been wanting to see this version again for many years!
Glorious dancing! I LOVE this performance! The best!
my favorite part is when the clock strikes 12 and she escapes. brilliant
This is my favourite thing to work and read to! Thank you!
thank you thank so so much for uploading this for all to see
Incomparable performance.... Thank you. (And thank you for the scenes/timings.)
Thank you for uploading this ballet. It's long been one of my favorite performances by Sylvie and I haven't found it on DVD.
Merci 🙏 pour le partage. Un merveilleux moment de danse 💃 classique. Un enchantement 💥🌹🧜🏼♀️
Sylvie simply the best !!!!
I love how Nureyev turns the King Kong with the Hawaiin girls part into a kind of parody Afternoon of the Faun.
OOOH WONDERFUL! i've it in VHF.... i'm so happy to find it on youtube
Very excited to find this. Thanks so much.
I think the Phantom was there watching and put the magic into Sylvie's dancing.
Tuula Westra I think it was Nureyev.;)
@@linhiril664 then Nuriev was Phantom)))
she is magic!
I love Sylvie..Tooooooooo Beautiful ..Perfectly !!!!!
Perfection belongs to a few and Silvie is not one of them. She was honestly good.
A very original performance. Good to watch or even just to listen to as background! Thanks for putting up.
Thank you so much for posting this ! I have been waiting for this ballet.
I love this as much as Rossini's Chenerentora opera.
A huge thank you for uploading this version that I used to watch on tape every month as a child. So many memories, so many dreams!
진짜 레전드 대박... 오래전부터 보는거지만 볼때마다 감탄이 절로 난다. 이 영상으로 늘 신데렐라가 내 인생 파드듀이다.. 저렇게 한번 춰보고 싶다.. ♥ㅋㅋ
Fabulous❣️
beautiful
Brilliant original choreography and interpretation by Nureyev ...whole idea .. love it so much ..wish it was available in better quality ...always low quality film back then :-(((
Thank u for sharing
happy to see this, too thanks ciao
Glorious
Please consider adding credit for SERGEI PROKOFIEV . This is an excellent and very beautiful production! Thanks for sharing.
Prokofiev was a genius. This score!!
Love the cotums
my favorite cinderella....

WAIT... HER FOOT!!!!!!!
TROLL ALERT,!!!
i think it is amazing to have a man be strong enough to go en pointe
The prince's dance at 1:10:15 has to be my favourite part of the whole ballet
Un seul mot MAGIQUE
R m C c : magique , alors je peux vous affirmez que vous ne lavez jamais vu in live à l'opéra de Paris !
ACTUALLY, Tom and Jerry, as did Bugs Bunny and Loony Tunes, incorporated some great music.
Deaf defining beauty unlike anything I seen before. I chance of justice system working without flaw or doubt. A kings ransom. Good to the last drop. I believe justice was served.

She had the dress under the first one, and the first one it just maintain with scratchs : )
Magic 😉

La beauté de Charles Judes
Сцена драки тоже как из голливудского фильма, невозможно перепутать.
I love it soooooooo much men it is soo nice ps is that a real show
This is a wonderful version indeed. What do you mean by "a real show"? This was performed by the Paris Opera Ballet, and filmed for television. I think it's available on DVD.
Its so great to know so many around were educated by tv, Tom and Jerry; and now they are even music critics hahahahahaha
Yes its beyond belief !!! Lol
Retirement as theme in this play. Holding on to those prescience years old age and the like. Unlikely illness tramp under or feet. To stones the return unknown of any kind but our kind. Finest photographs leaves us in mystery.
But thanks ...this is beest Ive found and I bought original video :-((
3 anúncios em 11 minutos, UA-cam por favor eu quero assistir sem perder a imersão! 😣
May I please copy costumes and backdrop please
I don't know which is better: this or The Nutcracker.
yay the original choreography now i can see what they actually were thinking about when they wrote it instead of some new nonsense
I think the stile in memory of era sound less movie and in honor of Rudolfo Valentino.
Duo 1 : déboulés, miroir, de plus en plus confiante
Final : 2:00:27
Стэп? Неожиданно!
They lost me when they went to the city.
Where o where can I buy this on DVD?

Se ve un poco mal pero me encanta la música es precisa
Ti ho mandato la Cenerentola .
BUON fine di settimana Eugenio. A martedì. Un abbraccio
Indeed pointe was originally developed for me as they were thought to be the stronger species of human I was told :P loll
Pointe began with Taglioni, I believe (and Maria Camargo was the first dancer to shorten her skirt and remove the heels from her shoes so she could do more complicated jumps). There's a good video on YT done by the Royal Ballet on the evolution of pointe work.
После танца Сильви очень тяжело дышит.
This is Nureyev's staging of Ashton's choreography?
I don't think this has anything to do with Ashton (in part because his two step-sisters are guys in drag) but I'm wondering if he might have adapted some of the choreography the Bolshoi used to use (so Grigorovich?)
Роль мачехи исполняет мужчина?
I don’t know why but her dress in his face at the end made me giggle. Not a great ending for him and unfortunately caught on tape forever.
Unbelievable originality ..demanding brilliant choreography ... wish it had been filmed in better quality ...video rubbish years ago :-((
Films?!
