Jan McNulty Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I meant to post earlier. I really enjoyed this Don Quixote!! I didn't quite get the set but it did give plenty of room for the dancers. I thought all the dancers sparkled and I really liked the costumes too. Thanks again Angela for keeping us up to date with streamings from Stuttgart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionaM Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Wasn’t Elisa Badenes so lively and lovely in this! 👏👏👏. And her partner Adhonay Soares da Silva was charming and bouncy. Colourful and cheerful. Thank you. ps. I didn’t get the set either ... until the finale when the words come together (no spoilers) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sim Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I didn’t much like the production but the dancing was lovely, especially the final pdd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Yeah, well, the production... It was made in 2000 with "real" sets, not video projections, and they proved to be so huge and difficult to integrate into the repertory system with the Stuttgart Opera that set designer Ramon B. Ivars was asked in 2012 to design new sets that would be easier to move around. And that's what he did with the videos and the letters. Elisa Badenes, by the way, was at the Royal Ballet School for her final year - she did not win a price at the Prix de Lausanne, but she was offered a scholarship in 2008, must have been by Gailene Stock then. Reid Anderson, who hired Badenes for Stuttgart, once said that he cannot believe "that Monica Mason overlooked her". She is a wonderful dancer with a very light and easy movement quality, and such a great actress for the drama ballets at Stuttgart. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angela Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 Stuttgart Ballet live-streams a new Beethoven evening on 1. April, as VoD available until 5. April. The triple bill combines Große Fuge and Adagio Hammerklavier, two classics by Hans van Manen, with a new creation by Mauro Bigonzetti; the Italian choreographer uses three piano sonatas by Beethoven. The evening was planned for the Beethoven jubilee year 2020. https://www.stuttgart-ballet.de/home/livestream-beethoven-ballets/ 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I love Adagio Hammerklavier and was only discussing with a friend just the other day who was in the first performance (back in 70’s) which was staged for the Royal in London. I wish the Royal would perform this piece more often. I can only get live-streams on my phone though which puts me off but this programme may be worth another go!

Then you can relay from phone to TV screen. Dead easy. I have these. Edited March 22, 2021 by FionaE Typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Me too - although I do it from my laptop. I was watching Sleeping Beauty last night while doing the ironing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 FionaE ....I will definitely look into that as we do have a rather nice Oled tv screen. I’m not very technically minded but have learnt a lot in last year even finding things on my phone I never knew were there! My partner may know more about cables!!

LinMM Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I hadn’t realised the original production staged for the Royal was quite SO long ago ....in November 1976 ...but know I was at that first performance just before my birthday. It had Makarova Mason and Penney and Wall Eagling and Silver. Eagling was an up and coming dancer back then who I was very keen on and he signed a picture I had been given with Happy Birthday Linda!! I do wonder why this is not performed more often by the Royal though. Maybe it would be expensive to have to restage it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live-Stream on Sunday, April 18th at 6 pm (CET), available as video-on-demand through April 22nd. https://www.stuttgart-ballet.de/home/noverre-young-choreographers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
