Crystal is phenomenal! The turns, the control, the balance, the flexibility, and that smile--she is the whole talented package!!! I cannot wait to see what she does next!

@vanclemmons Жыл бұрын

There are plenty of talented people in all arts who are exceptionally talented but just not performers, but boy, was she born to perform, it’s crystal clear from the first 10 seconds (pun intended).

Why only a bronze? She is the best, the most live and expressive Esmeralda which I have ever seen.

@lisalin888 Жыл бұрын

I feel the same!

@snowangel7635 Жыл бұрын

I think it's because she took on a few really hard challenges that she didn't perfectly execute. I agree, she's the best Esmeralda I've seen!

@fetchimonsieur Жыл бұрын

her timing was kinda off + she almost fell from her turns, to think that she still place in the top three is actually good

@myotiswii Жыл бұрын

She was so off on most of the tambourin hits. The sound makes it so obvious when the timing is off as well. I think the teacher probably put more of a focus on the movement and disregared the timing and it shows.

**Crystal Huang** is haughty, mischievous, shrewd, flexible, she takes her time, she stretches, each figure is more difficult by the intensity she gives it. Great assurance, playing with the mischievous and contagious tambourine. Quick and enthusiastic, warm and lively end! I like how she has fun with this tambourine, how delicate she is in the execution of each of her movements, very graceful, joyful, she breathes this score. A talented performance. A hope for her future to become an immense ballerina. Neat, precise, supple, clean figures, totally charming, captivating, bewitching. Bravo to Crystal Huang. Thank you very much for sharing the link ! I appreciate a lot ! Kudos from Switzerland

I think the "problem" is the talent level is going up. It's getting harder and harder to determine a dancer who is clearly better among the competition. At least that is my take. If that is correct, the future is bright for ballet across the USA.

@faeryhooman Жыл бұрын

@@DavidLeBlanc yes you're right, i saw dancers like ava ramirez, chloe wang, and many more gave out extremely clean performances, they did not make it to the final round also. this year the judges already chose more dancers to the final round, but still it's hard to determine who is really better

The tambourinhits were mostly to late. Timing is key for this choreography and she was late most of the time.

@BonkersDancer 9 ай бұрын

I suspect she or her instructor has Chinese classic dance background. The extra extending moment and the way she added falling-ish float at the end of turns reminds me of Chinese classic dance (yes we do it intentionally in Chinese classic dance), which might be also be the reason people think she’s off beat and balance. Maybe she just needs to find a balance between her intense styling and being precise. Her style is so beautiful and unique. One of my favorite Esmeralda performances!

@aureliamargaretha2744 5 ай бұрын

for me she is not off beat and balance, its like just her style for making it beautiful

@iloveprivacy8167 Ай бұрын

If true, then I hope it catches on in the wider ballet world, because it gave this such an extra dimension of movement & fluidity! Tradition's great, but it also needs regular updates.

Please watch gold and silver before commenting that "she should have won first". She didn't perfectly execute the turns and had mistakes here and there due to the challenges she overtook. This is one of the most expressive Esmeraldas I've seen though! She did many interesting things that I haven't seen in other Esmeraldas in the past. For example, 1:00, 1:11 and 1:18, 1:25 and there's probably more but you can see for yourself.
