The Mariinsky are now streaming Raymonda with Tereshkina and Parish on their YouTube channel - not sure how long it will be there for but they tend to stay up for at least a couple of days:

There's a book which accompanies the exhibition, which I highly recommend: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ballerina-Fashions-Modern-Patricia-Mears/dp/0865653739 (other book retailers are available)

Sleeping Beauty is up now, for a week I believe: https://www.operaballet.nl/online/ballet/streaming It's the fantastic Peter Wright production with designs by Philip Prowse. -

You don't - it's also on YouTube (went up about 15 minutes ago) but presumably it will disappear quite quickly:- 987 replies

San Francisco Ballet streaming
charliewise replied to Lynette H's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere but San Francisco Ballet are currently uploading a video each week - this week it's Anima Animus choreographed by David Dawson with music by Ezio Bosso - well worth watching, I think it's absolutely sublime (for me it was the highlight of their visit to London last year). https://www.sfballet.org/sf-ballet-home/ The ballet changes on Fridays (overnight UK time). The filming is superb (I think because the recordings are for the archives) - the camera only zooms in and out depending on how many dancers are on stage and- 37 replies

Upcoming DVD/Blu-ray Releases
charliewise replied to charliewise's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
I'm really pleased that the Bernstein Celebration has been issued (especially as I didn't catch it at the ROH). I hope it sells well enough for them to continue releasing less well known works. I can't think of any other company releasing triple bills like this - not with any sort of regularity anyway (except the gem that was NYCB in Paris). -

Has anyone heard anything else on this? I lost my recording of the TV broadcast when we switched from Sky to BT and I'm constantly kicking myself for not finding some way to keep it! -
Upcoming DVD/Blu-ray Releases
charliewise replied to charliewise's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Not a DVD or a Blu-ray, but I've just noticed that the Wendy Whelan documentary 'Restless Creature' is available on Netflix (at least in the UK)! Official website for the film is here. As mentioned previously there's quite a bit of ballet available on Amazon Prime as well - the POB Nureyev Swan Lake with Letestu/Martinez and Raymonda with Gillot/Martinez, RB Sleeping Beauty with Cojocaru/Bonelli and the Mariinsky Jewels, to name a few. Also been meaning to say that the NYCB in Paris Blu-ray that came out earlier in the year is sublime - Sarah Mearns' is wonderful in Wa -
Project Polunin at Sadler's Wells
charliewise replied to Sim's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
I am sad to report that the reviews pretty much sum it up (and far more eloquently than I can). There are occasional flashes of brilliance (particularly from Osipova) which only illustrate what a night it could have been. I might add some more thoughts later (I am meant to be working at the moment...!) -
Upcoming DVD/Blu-ray Releases
charliewise replied to charliewise's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Release dates have been pushed back for quite a few of these over the past couple of days - Rain, Ninth Symphony, the Berlin Nutcracker and the Bolshoi Swan Lake now all showing as 13th Nov. The Merry Widow and the RB Fille both came out today.
