i wish i was in dance class!!! this is what i'm going to be this halloween!!! the music is strangley upbeat for a group of dead brides/brides-to-be!! this is a beautiful art! and i love the music! i found out about this ballet in a old book that my mom bought from the libary a long time ago. the ghost girls, or willis were beautiful but scary at the same time and i was thinking that it would be the perfect costume!!! :)
CUBamencia comment is correct, it is La Scala ballet. This part has a few things that I like better than the the ABT versions on DVD. Also the filming of this 1996 La Scala production is the best of all versions available on DVD.
I'm going to dance this part of the music of giselle :) of course we have easier steps :) it stills really tired to dance it hahaha and yeah it sound slower here I guess is because its live music and tthey just dont do it exactly the same everytime they play it :)
i'm so glad I've never danced so I can sit here and enjoy it and not thing hey on 2:07 is her foot where it should be. lol! great vid thanks for posting.
well, hon, I've danced for over 18 years, so shush :-) But come on, look at her spins at 4:02 or so. Se when she lands in fifth? Well, she tilts forward and then readjust herself.
sharmenhope, you crack me up! 1st, ballerinas turn, they do not spin. 2nd, those are assemble turns which is a jumping turn. 3rd, this ballet is from the Romantic Era of the 1800s, so yes, she is doing them right to lean her body so. Thanks for the comic relief!
well, i agree with you, but 1) they're pirouettes, not turns 2) it's called assemble en tournant en l'air and yes it's from the romantic era but the leaning is entirely choreographic.... Giselle is a staple ballet that is known the world over. any idiot knows that this is what it's supposed to look like.
Which comany is it? Scala di Milano, I suppose? It`s so beautiful!! Thanks for posting!

tristan23reid 4 years ago
call it whatever you went.
they effort, and time, and rehearsals, and hard work it took them.
they deserve no negative comments.
