I'm not a ballerina or an expert on ballet or anything but this really moved me. I haven't seen all of Swan Lake so I didn't realize she was gonna jump off the cliff thing at that moment. I said "Nooo!" out loud XDDD My mom was like What's wrong? It was so dramatic! Marianela is definately my favorite Odette&Odile.
My apologies. You're absolutely right. VB is actually Opus 11!! . I'm just so not used to Drigo's cuts/substitutions in this ballet-(my choice of recording being the unaltered Dutoit 77' rendition of the score vs. the Fedotov/Drigo's edited one, even being an amazing orchestration).
The DVD is magnificent although I prefer Swan Lake set in earlier times rather than being brought forward to Tchaikovsky's time. I'm just an old romantic at heart.
You can all purchase the DVD and own this performance in Royal Opera House Shop website. I love youtube videos, but I think we should support Marianela and Royal Ballet too!
I am so excited this is on dvd!! Nunez is such an amazing dancer, she is so strong and precise in her movements. Her and Soares are so wonderful together.
This woman need so much more recognition, she is sublime!

Tchaikovsky would've been proud of the Royal Ballet for such a wonderful performance!

@LaurenStar111 Why not? It's a different interpretation of the Finale. Refreshing imo.

I don't have any swan lakes with semi-black swans in the 4th act!
What's the meaning? It's just to simbolyze Sigfried's betrayal?

Why have they put in different music for this scene?

Marianela is divine. But Dowell's version is very ugly, also the music he chose for the 4º act.
What a pity!!!

I went to see Thiago and Marianela in The Sleeping Beauty last week at the Royal Opera House and they were incredible!!!
I even went round to the stage door where I met them and got their autographs; they were really nice!!!
I'm going to have to get this DVD.
