What I really love about the Russian school in general is the deep attention to detail. Most of the time you can see if a dancer was educated in Russia by just watching their hands and other tiny details. Lovely demonstration.

She really has a gift. And she work as hard as if she doesn't have it. That's what makes her untouchable. She takes nothing for granted.

This is so above and beyond any schooling I’ve seen on, cannot even compare to any other professional school, whether it is the Paris opera or the royal. The lines, the secure execution, the fast transition of very difficult movements, the stability. It’s amazing.

I wondered if Maria Khoreva evolved quality of vaganova's training. Her classmates were pulled up higher by dancing with her every day. Her strength and perfection even changed style of vaganova..

Почему-то иностранцы думают, что Хорева чуть ли не главная звезда русского балета. Откуда такие представления? Хорева в большей степени гимнастка, чем балерина. Это то, чему академия Вагановой еë не учила. Никакой стиль Вагановой она не изменила и не изменит. Она - просто балерина, каких в России десятки, если не тысячи.

@@user-jh7pm7wi9n I see. it's interesting view. Khoreva would appear a bit like passionate Sylvie Guillem.... I like Khoreva's Raymonda (act3 wedding). Nothing acrobatic, and she controls time, space and stirs my emotion.

@user-jh7pm7wi9n Жыл бұрын

@@BANGZI55 вы имеете право на ваши впечатления, но именно в России Хорева не оставит особенного следа в балете. Это не значит, что она - плохая балерина. Она - хорошая балерина, но не выдающаяся. И, наконец, самое важное: русским поклонникам балета не хочется, чтобы русский балет пошёл развиваться в сторону Хоревой. С нас достаточно Сильви Гюлем, которая ,србственно, и принесла в балет гимнастику.

How important is musicality in an exam? There are a lot of ballet dancers (in general) who don't follow the music in a ballet class. Do these dancers still pass tests?

@vaganovadream1132 Жыл бұрын

in an exam, musicality is very important, as it is an absolutely essential part of ballet, and being off the music could certainly affect a student’s grade/evaluation negatively. however, for a professional dancer working in a company, they may choose to do the steps at their own pace in company class, which is more accepted.
