Wonderful!

[@patriciamccormick4882]

Hermoooso!

[@davidsands789]

Marvellous! But I'd like to have seen his tours and spins from a wider angle and not the close up where you just see a whirling torso.

[@sl4917]

So true.

[@gabrielalopetegui]

exactly! I got furious! whoever was behind the camera seems not to understand anything about ballet!

[@davidsands789]

[@andynonymous6769]

Agreed. I hate it so much when people zoom in on ballet dancers. They’ve worked so hard to make *everything* perfect, not just their face/torso/feet or whatever someone decides to zoom in on. This isn’t the most egregious example, but on the videos where the camera bounces around to something different every few seconds, it almost feels disrespectful to the dancer and the audience. Allow us to see ALL of their hard work, not just whatever the editor thinks will hold our attention

[@murielbelmondo7074]

Très beau

[@balletman4669]

Bravo！

[@annemaude7401]

Sublime 😍🎶👏❤

[@gabrielalopetegui]

why when he's making multiple pirouettes the camera goes to his upper torso??? who's the cameraman? Mickey Mouse?? argggg!!

[@GIOBODAN]

Ma com'è possibile che tutte le volte che hai girato la camera abbia fatto lo stesso primo piano?

[@brunnoribeiro3840]

was he opening second intead of fourth on his last jumps?

[@beignet2012]

Stunning dancers yet worst lighting and camera ever. Have they put any thought into what ballet lovers want to see?

[@phillipleboa5251]

COULD SOMEONE KICK THOSE CAMERA MEN ????????????? STOP FOCUSSING IN AND DO CLOSE UPS ON THE DANCERS - ALWAYS SHOW THEIR ENTIRE BODIES WHILE THEY ARE DANCING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@oxanayakhanova5990]

Оркестр... Кровь из ушей

[@JonathanDavidDummar]

They were spectacular!
