Must say, Sarah Lamb is just the perfect dancer for McGregor's works. Her physique/technique is brilliant!!

they partner extraordinarily well together.

They are SO lovely together... Even though this is just rehearsal time, it gives me goosebumps. I do hope this won't be seen as controversial or... anything negative... but the contrast in their skin colors makes this that much more beautiful. So much love for these two!!

Wow--such gorgeous, imaginative work! McGregor does an exceptional job of building movement in collaboration with music and narrative. The movement is fresh, inspired, and evocative. The couple dancing here are is so impressive.

Simply gorgeous. Sarah and Eric are pure beauty.

4:27 that develope into the section where it looks as if she's walking on air.... Yassssss!!!!

THIS CHOREOGRAPHY IS KILLING ME!!!!! I'm in love! I love this type of choreography so much, I would be in heaven if I got to dance this!!!!

Magnificent...absolutely beautiful...Eric Underwood, Sara Lamb and of course maestro Wayne McGregor..wow...

I love this snatch of a MacGregor piece in the making with these two wonderful dancers. They make difficult movement look graceful and together make Sarah seem weightless. It's amazing. I wish there was a recording of the whole thing. I just come back to this video again and again. Whatever the controversy it raised at the time, I think the conscious contrast in the dancers' appearances makes each dancer more striking and beautiful as one moves with the other.

I love how Wayne directs, with his sour effects for every movement. It's funny to me, because my band director would teach chamber pieces like this, so to see the same type of teaching only used for a different medium, is very very cool.

They make it look so effortless. Such a breathtaking piece!!!

Foo, off.. Fooo, waaay, fzzzzz jump! Tiiaaaam. Cool. Fuaam, bam, fueeeei...

breathtakingly beautiful, love the choreography!

I know this was quite a while ago, but I'm hoping that The Royal Ballet will have this on again! or at least have the dvd out so I can purchase it >.

If you ever get a chance to see this performed you should take it. It was one of the most amazing ballet's I have EVER seen . Wayne McGregor is a genius

This is beautiful, loved this really much! The choreographer is great so as the dancers. Beautiful to watch!

This music and dance simply melts my heart....

Stunning work and the Choreography is truly refreshing and brilliant! But it izzzz Wayne McGregor! Love Love Love! Brava dansers! So gorgeous! Thank you all. Merde!

went to see the Raven Girl and it was worth every penny, beautiful and wonderful. The visual effects were unusual, but in a good way. Thanks ROH

Stunning! This looks like something very special.

Love this!

it's absolutely beautiful

Omg. You guys are so amazing. I love the way Wayne McGregor works with his dancers. I love his communication through sound and movement. They work together on a whole new intuitive and creative level. Most of all they make it look so effortless and natural. He works them hard but they get him and the collaboration is beautiful and compelling. We need this so much in the world today. This makes me very happy and comforted. It's inspiring and gives me hope for humanity.

So beautiful

What a thrilling experience to see even a snippet of this magical, ethereal ballet, performed with such grace and precision by Ms Lamb and Mr Underwood. Superb choreography by Wayne McGregor, against a most fitting score. How I wish I were able to see the entire ballet on stage, featuring the original performers. Is there no filmed version available?.

simply beautiful

This looks incredibl,e I really want to see it

So wish I could see this ballet this season! I also love the bit of the score here, especially the melody at the end - is the music available to purchase anywhere?

when are they going to show this? It looks INCREDIBLE

Que hermoso Dios mío!!!!!!!

Wow...

When is the official performance? The rehearsal for this is so beautiful, and I want to make sure I see it. (:

This is a rehearsal, she isn't wearing the costume. These are the practice clothes she chose to wear and it's what she's comfortable dancing in. There's nothing wrong with that.

Does anyone know why Sarah wears those bindings around her calf muscles?

I saw this on Saturday and really enjoyed it, are there any recording of the music?

Same here:D More interesting than just pa dadadam dadadam dam dam, i think that would help me to get the right quality to my moving, if i was working with him! (Not even in my dreams.) I adore hi's works!

9:45 the music sounds really beautiful here :O anyone know what this genre of music is called?

is there anywhere to watch the entire performance?

Must see this

Now HE is a great choreographer.

That is how choreographer's talk sometimes.

what is the name of the song??

wow

sooo-oo.. I would like to know what happened to physics?

i have a tring park audition soon and i need a second opinion, should i do my audition wth a dance a know well and have pretty much perfected or should i make a new dance on pointe to really push myself. i really am inspired by your stuff so thats why im asking you!

Where can I see it

Fwoom. Fwoooooom

WOW

When are they coming to NY this year???

anyone knows the background music starts at 9:50 ? please!

Isn't she the one in the role of Alice as well??

I wish camera men were dancers before.

The music sounds like something from final fantasy, a piece nobuo uematsu would compose :)

+Royal Opera House Where can I see this in the U.S.A

What is this ballet about?
