theorist 25 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I've just watched it twice. Really enjoyed it. Very well edited. And good to see so many of the Royal Ballet dancers involved. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

FionaE 675 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 And finally something uplifting for the dancers to be part of and for the audience to enjoy ❤️ Huge thank you to Christopher Wheeldon ... I imagine this was an enormous work to create and pull together. Bravo 👏 6 Link to post Share on other sites
Richard LH 3,078 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Well done Christopher Wheeldon, and a big thanks to all the dancers and musicians. Just brilliant! 7 Link to post Share on other sites
Angela 1,379 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I really, really don't want to spoil your joy, but Mr. Wheeldon definitely watched the Béjart version before doing this... 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Sharon 928 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I love this! Yes it is slightly reminiscent of Bejart, but this is so much better because it is not so regimented the dancers are free and relaxed. It was so great to see all the dancers together again - sort of. I enjoyed this so much - a lot more than than I did the MacGregor pdd from ROH the other night. Well done Christopher Wheeldon and well done all the musicians and dancers who participated. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
alison 12,804 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Thank you too to Mr Vasiliev for shaving 10 minutes off the running time (I have a severe allergy to that piece of music ). Seriously, it was great to see so many of the company actually dancing, and the editing was excellent. (I think I'm even more impressed at the quality of the sound recording, actually) 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Rachel H 45 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I thought this was pretty fabulous! I watched between the online marking I am doing, working from home. Lovely to see so many of the dancers, and it definitely put a smile on my face. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Odyssey 1,342 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 One of my favourite watches during lockdown. It captures the angry, spirit and grace of this wonderful company of dancers, musicians and of course, not forgetting the wonderful chorographer. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
