And nutracker isn´t complete without mother ginger!!!😢My little son and I think that it is one of the most enjoyable parts ot it. And they decided to skip it.😭
I grew up going to see the Nutcracker in SF with my grandparents. I watch it every year. It reminds me of my grandmother who passed away a couple years ago. She loved ballet.

I am a party boy and a soldier in sugarloaf ballets 2021 nutcracker performance. This is one of the most professional and mature looking nutcracker performance I’ve seen yet. It felt so much like the Mariinsky ballet theatre production of the nutcracker. The party scene was so immersive. Battle was energetic. Snow was beautiful. And act II was a piece of beautiful art! As a ballet dancer for 8 years, I have to say… well done!!!
¡ Como era de esperarse !!!... Rusia; los extraordinarios intérpretes del BALLET, tenían el DEBER de realizar esta SÚPER BUENA presentación del “Nutcraker” en homenaje su GENIAL Músico P.I. Tchaycowsky. Creo a no equivocarme, esta es la MEJOR versión o presentación de la GRANDIOSA Obra Musical que veo hasta la fecha, en mis largos e incansables años que veo este BALLET. Allá en 1992 aun cuando mi esposa y mis dos hijos estaban bien niños los lleve a ver este GRANDIOSO espectáculo allá en Lima-PERU y luego en USA (Stroudsburg-Pensilvania) vimos en DVD la muy buena versión americana…con el famoso actor (aun niño) de “mi pobre angelito”, esta versión es una de las mejores de todas las que vi a la fecha, pero…esta versión de la “Russian State Ballet & Opera House” supera a todas a mi modesto criterio. No les quito ningún valor a las otras presentaciones, que soy el menos autorizado… FELICITACIONES amigos rusos sobre esta única y EXQUISITA presentación.
I don't know anything about ballet, or even much about dance in general. I only know that I feel extremely lucky to be able to watch this for free on UA-cam, and I enjoyed it a lot. I don't like Christmas, personally, but I think the Nutcracker is the best thing to come out of the season. So many beautiful works of art have come from it, this performance obviously one of them.
@@droxyy All that happens when you go out during Christmas in the wild is just hearing Mariah Carey again. I do not have the money nor the time to go to Christmas concerts, I'm not religious so I don't care to go to church, and everywhere else is just an ugly, tacky, vulgar display of "Christmas Spirit" junk. I wasn't kidding when I say I don't like Christmas. I wasn't being hyperbolic when I said The Nutcracker is literally the best thing to come out of the season. Literally nothing else about it is good, or appealing. Did I say Christmas is tacky already? Because "tacky" is the word for it.
Wonderfully expressed. I especially liked that you said you weren’t into xmas but could still appreciate nutcracker. Personally I abhor summer, but it’s still the best time for fruit. ;).

No matter where we lived, I always made sure to have tickets to take my two boys to see this preformed. The older they grew, the more delight showed on their faces and in there eyes. Love remembering those days!
@DavidAsset78: I agree that Russian ballet is often stilted and flat. Great technique, but very mechanical and not much emotion. I prefer the ABT’s version of the Nutcracker, especially the pas de deux.
I've been giving myself these gifts for many years. I love both productions of The Nutcracker - the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow and the St. Petersburg production of the Mariinsky Theater. I still can't stop loving this work of art)))
What a wonderful holiday treat; the ballet as it was meant to be seen, presented in full by the Russian ballet company. Beautiful. Thank you for posting and sharing this grand performance. Kudos to the Russian State Ballet company. Outstanding. Not a very rousing audience - sounded like ten people showed up.
Wow! This is one of the best Nutcracker performances I’ve seen. It is only missing Mother Ginger! I watch the Nutcracker every year, it’s a beautiful Christmas story.
Yes, this would be from Saint.Petersburg I think, the capital of imperial Russian ballet and where the Nutcracker and Swan Lake were first performed. I watched this one on the Mezzo TV network several years ago...beautifully presented and played! What a delight to find it again! 💗💗
@@макаргагарин-п1у I've seen the Bolshoi's version too, when it was beamed live in HD to the local cinema theatre around five years ago. They were quite amazing of course when it comes to body artistry, rhythm, strength and graceful movement, but I don't see any reason to put down this production from Piter.
Have you seen the original (1940?) Fantasia by Disney? They have exquisite animation (sprites gliding on ice) to this waltz and also some of the dances of the sweets kingdom: tea, coffee. Lovely.
Dreadfully boring performance. Bad orchestra. No energy. Wake up to the 21st century. Get into Tschaikowsky,his spirit. Running around being nice dancers is just not good enough.
The complexity and precision of classical compositions showcase the masterful skill of the composers. The intricate interplay of instruments, the meticulous attention to structure, and the depth of musical expression reveal a level of craftsmanship that is both awe-inspiring and humbling.
Enchanting and mesmerizing! Couldn’t take my eyes off of them!!! Simply beautiful, the dancers make it look soo easy, NOT!! Stunning watching on CHRISTMAS DAY! 🎄🎁🙋🏼♀️ New York, 🇺🇸 USA!
Это что-то невероятное! Я люблю балет, но всегда думала, что видеозапись - это совсем не то. А тут смотрю, не могу оторваться! Мурашки по коже от такой красоты! Благодарю за прекрасное исполнение! Самая любимая новогодняя сказка! 🥰
Designed, produced, choreographed, and danced like these people have been doing it for over a century. Which they have. I'm only 10 minutes in and I'm already enthralled.
Great performance, so much attention to detail, the dancers, the sets and costumes. Thank God that the Russians have retained their strong core Values to the Great Traditions in which they continue to excel. Long Live the Classical Arts, Music and Theater traditions! Thank you very much, Russia!
I have loved the Nutcracker since I was a child, something about the music just speaks to my soul. I watch this elegant ballet several times a year and still love it. Well done and may God bless all of you. ❤❤
Как помню во времена СССР в Москве на балет, стояли японцы, немцы, американцы.. стреляли билетики. На русском не понимают, но хотят в балет попасть. Вот до чего буржуев довел русский балет))) Я пригласил девушку и ждал ее, у меня два билетика. Так японец меня за руку держал, если не придет - он возьмет. Не пришла((( Но я не ему, а паре билеты отдал.. японец один, а пара иностранцев были так довольны.. денег разумеется не взял. Балет - это продукт великой культуры. Надо не бомбами гордиться, а балетом
MERCI !!!! Thanksfully I Love this very very original version !!!! Fantastic is the master of dance for the children, so graceful and elegant !!! BRAVO to All of You !!!💖💚🎈🎉🎈🎉💚💖🌟🌟🌟🌟

I would go to the Nutcracker Ballet in Salt Lake City, Utah, with my mom and grandma. Those are my favorite Christina memories. Thank you for sharing this
Me & a few ladies JUST went 2 see the Cirque Nutcracker @ the Meyerhoff Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. The performance was mesmerizing!!! I CAN'T get it out of my HEAD!!!
Why is there so little applause?? People do not realize all the work behind a ballet, this one being particularly beautiful! Congratulations to the dancers, choreographers, orchestra and decorators, it was wonderful thank you for sharing such wonders with us.
I would guess it's because of the recording setup - they will have set it up to get the best sound from the orchestra, and the applause will only have been picked up peripherally. It was likely loud in the theatre, but sounds quiet on the recording because the microphones are directional. For something like this the sound engineer will want to pick up as little of the crowd noise as possible, so that it doesn't drown out the music (it seems likely that the sound we're hearing is essentially the live feed of what was being played in the theatre over the speaker system, rather than a mix done especially for the recording).
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful production. Another year of not being able to go out and enjoy the festive season, but this brought the festivity right into my home.

THANK YOU!!! What a blessing to see the Nutcracker as it should be preformed! Our Opera in Portland Oregon has butchered it with all way out there modern expression and I cannot have Christmas without a "real" Nutcracker! Wonderfully done!! Merry Christmas to all, and to all a GOOD NIGHT!!

Russian Ballet Nutcracker, the Best!🎅 How Delightful ! As Everything else is Shutting Down due to Covid, again.. Merry Christmas to the Russian Ballet and Thank you.
FINALLY! THANK OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN!! AND, THANK YOU: FOR POSTING AND MAKING EASILY ACCESSIBLE THIS FABULOUS IN EVERY WAY BALLET!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! INDEED!!!!!
Compliments to the dancers and I enjoyed the performance, but I especially admire the Nutcracker of the San Fransisco Ballet with Davit Karapetyan (wow) and Vanessa Zahorian (exceptional performance, scenic design, etc.) and.,,,.the Royal Ballet !
I hope you're joking about the orchestra. Among other things they are literally playing out of tune. Did you happen to catch the pas de deux? (Lol) And yet the spirit is there. There's no substitute for that. WIth this dancing and this choreography, the result is...maybe the best yet.
I love the Nutcracker. I love to see it every year by video. Because of my health and distance of a theater I could never see it live. My only neg. Comment when I have watching it is parts of it was to dark were I could not see. 😊 Cassie
They probably just don't have mics set back in the crowd for recording. the mics are most likely in the orchestra pit and have noise dampening on for ambient noises like coughing, babies crying, etc. so the cheering is probably MUCH louder in person!
this is my first time seeing the nutcracker. amazing performance!💗💐 Ilya was wonderful as a dancer and actor--to be able to dance, and 'act' the story..just lovely! thank u so much for sharing this magic!✨
I’ve been having so much fun watching all these versions on UA-cam with my kids. This one might be my favorite- the costumes, the sets, how the rats aren’t as creepy as they sometimes are… and because the dancer playing Drosselmeier is *gorgeous.*
watch the right back around 1:38:06 - Ilya delicately whisks off into the wings to swiftly change from a sugar-plum gentleman back into drosselmeyer's outfit :) and pops out to take his bow mere moments later.
Christmas isn’t complete without this music, dancing, and lovely story.
And nutracker isn´t complete without mother ginger!!!😢My little son and I think that it is one of the most enjoyable parts ot it. And they decided to skip it.😭
Thanks man!
Agreed watch every year
Exactly!

No, it's not the best to watch. It's stilted and flat. Check out the NYCB Ballet, and you'll see the difference.
@@DavidAsset78 Yes there is a difference. I once again found out Russian Ballet is the best.

Me & a few ladies JUST went 2 see the Cirque Nutcracker @ the Meyerhoff Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. The performance was mesmerizing!!! I CAN'T get it out of my HEAD!!!
Tchaikovsky actually visited Baltimore just before writing this. Imagine. I love that story.
Why is there so little applause??
People do not realize all the work behind a ballet, this one being particularly beautiful!
Congratulations to the dancers, choreographers, orchestra and decorators, it was wonderful thank you for sharing such wonders with us.
I just have to comment that you have the most exquisite name.
Some say it was performed during heavy covid restrictions so it can very well be a half-empty room.
I would guess it's because of the recording setup - they will have set it up to get the best sound from the orchestra, and the applause will only have been picked up peripherally. It was likely loud in the theatre, but sounds quiet on the recording because the microphones are directional. For something like this the sound engineer will want to pick up as little of the crowd noise as possible, so that it doesn't drown out the music (it seems likely that the sound we're hearing is essentially the live feed of what was being played in the theatre over the speaker system, rather than a mix done especially for the recording).
They sound like they are heavily clapping in unison, rhythmically in the style of perhaps Eastern Europe traditional sense. That’s my guess.
A beautiful production. If you are a fan of this ballet, please watch the performance at Royal Albert with Francesca Hayward. Breathtaking!
Oh, Thank you , i definitely will!❤

Going to the theatre and watching a ballet performance of the nutcracker is one of my all time favorite Christmas traditions.
Обожаю!!!И моим соседям теперь очень нравится:)))
Absolutely outstanding👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🇹🇩🇨🇦🎄🎄🎄
I like ballet. I'd rather watch a ballet than a broken dance. Thumbs up 👍
Absolutely stunning performance, thank you!
Absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing this.
Compliments to the dancers and I enjoyed the performance, but I especially admire the Nutcracker of the San Fransisco Ballet with Davit Karapetyan (wow) and Vanessa Zahorian (exceptional performance, scenic design, etc.) and.,,,.the Royal Ballet !
Love this ballet. Thanks for posting.

Many thanks - the performances in my city were cancelled due to COVID so I'm glad I got to watch still!
My favorite ballet.
Goodness this is probably the best quality orchestra I've come across in a recording, and the dancing is top notch. I'm incredibly impressed by this
I hope you're joking about the orchestra. Among other things they are literally playing out of tune. Did you happen to catch the pas de deux? (Lol) And yet the spirit is there. There's no substitute for that. WIth this dancing and this choreography, the result is...maybe the best yet.
So hab ich das noch nie gesehen. Einfach wunderschön.
love the dance .And the music .And my teacher showed me and my classmates this #shoutout to the nutckaer and the maker
I love the Nutcracker. I love to see it every year by video.
Because of my health and distance of a theater I could never see it live.
My only neg. Comment when I have watching it is parts of it was to dark were I could not see. 😊

thank you for posting this. So very well done!
A really beautiful adaptation, the cast were wonderful, a joy to watch!
I think the audience was asleep, shame on them!
They probably just don't have mics set back in the crowd for recording. the mics are most likely in the orchestra pit and have noise dampening on for ambient noises like coughing, babies crying, etc. so the cheering is probably MUCH louder in person!
wonderful, thank you...
Very Beautiful, Thanks
thank you for allowing me this wonderful experience, congratulations!
Thank you, and may all of you have a very merry Christmas and happy new year it was a great performance. P.L.
Same to you!

what an incredibly charming and accessible performance, and really lovely production values as well.
Fantastic , many thanks for sharing ,the staging was amazing , bravo
I’ve been having so much fun watching all these versions on UA-cam with my kids. This one might be my favorite- the costumes, the sets, how the rats aren’t as creepy as they sometimes are… and because the dancer playing Drosselmeier is *gorgeous.*
The exactness of the angles in the waltz steps with her body at a 3/4 angle upstage and downstage i haven't seen in others
watch the right back around 1:38:06 - Ilya delicately whisks off into the wings to swiftly change from a sugar-plum gentleman back into drosselmeyer's outfit :) and pops out to take his bow mere moments later.
I liked it very much. Thank you. Мне очень понравилось. Спасибо.
Thank you !!!!! Lovely performance!!!
Enchanting! 🧚♀️🩰🧚♂️🩰🧚
