cubanmiamiboy Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yummy! I just discovered this video on Youtube. ( I can never get enough of this ballet) Comments anybody...? P.S- Mme, as usual, grand and regal-(just as bart once said)- doing Taglioni (he,he) and faithful to her idol Markova-(the original cast in Dolin's revival) Link to comment
Hans Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 That is a pretty amazing performance! Evdokimova is so light, with beautiful petit allegro, Thesmar delicate and refined, Fracci with such charm, grace, and beautiful port de bras, and Alonso, as noted, very regal. Link to comment
Natalia Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 This clip must come from the ca-1980 video "The Romantic Era" which has long been removed from commercial circulation. I'm holding on to the VHS for dear life but it would be great to one day have a DVD release. It's an absolute treasure -- as is "Portrait of Giselle" which came out at about the same time.
