  • Beautiful is all I can say :) I'm just wondering at what age they started dancing, or were forced to start dancing.. I can only imagine the pressure to be the best must be enormous over there in china..

  • @peppermintcat i believe "no pay, no gain' is applicable everyone, you ask Phelps, he got so many gold medle, is it just because he is lucky?usually, they like it, then they chose it.no pressure, no progress,then no beautiful dancing. you ask dancers all over the world if they have pressure?if they do like it, they will not choose it.and if you want a beautiful result, you have to experience the tough process.not chinese dancer...everyone.

  • Amazing!!!!!

  • All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!

  • the story of this dance is basically that one soloist girl who has her own views on what dancing should be, and the others try to force her to dance and be like one of them, even though she doesn't want to...and in the end, they accept her for who she is, and life's good!(: our dance company danced this.

  • Wow,beautiful

  • @jeoyanda

    However, I would agree it's beautiful!

  • Who cares what the story is- this is modern dance, there is no story. Everyone does whatever the he'll they please!

  • @flubished That's not true. Some do have a story.

  • what is the story?

  • This is i love , really something you can watch it again and again.

    The lines, the moves are so perfect and flawless!

  • This is beautiful :)

  • wow..thank God for the talent in dancing....beautiful...

  • This is absolutely amazing!

  • perfecto. takes my breath away. such excellent dancers.

  • stunningly beautiful!!! what's it about

  • beautiful! every move and transition was so fluid and graceful :) incredible dancers

  • unbeliveble!

    

  • WOW... incredible.

    

  • i dont see where this is a modern dance...but it's good!

  • amaaaaaazing....

  • oh my gosh! that's AMAZING! the movement and the elegance and the stillness... it's just... to good for words.

  • I just had an eyegasm .

  • This should be a adaption of ballet Raise the red lantern, which is a adaption of movie Raise the red lantern too.

    It helps you understand this dance.

    The key person behind this is Zhang Yimou (director of Hero, the house of flying daggers, Road home and opening ceremony of 2008 Beijing Olympics).

  • @MegaChibachan the music is similar, but the story line is totally different, nothing related to Zhang. You can check a lot of previous comments from other person

  • @TheAmadeusmzt Whatever or however you think about of the background of this dance it is alright if you are not Chinese. However if you are, I'd like to suggest you to check videos how Zhang Yimou and national ballet of China made the ballet from the art house movie that has won a lot of fans in Europe especially in British and France. It is not to offend you but I have to ask why you don't do your research but just get knowledge from other audience.

  • @MegaChibachan yes, do your research:  舞蹈《岁月如歌》以一群练功学艺的孩子为表现对象,赞美了她们不­畏严寒酷暑勤学苦练的顽强精神,抒发了“逝者如斯”、岁月如歌的­伤逝感怀。

    舞蹈开始以一个小女孩穿上练功鞋的细节,点明了人物和场景——第­一次穿上练功鞋的欣喜,深藏在多少人的心底啊;随后是“提沉冲靠­”磨韵阶段,孩子们开始了共同的征程;那练功房中经常可见的某个­孤单身影,倔强的练功孩子,暗暗履行着“勤能补拙”的古训,不知­多少回的共同排练、演出;一起经历的困难艰辛,集体对个人的帮助­和关怀,直至最后的拍毕业照、深躬谢幕,等等,以舞蹈本身来表达­学习舞蹈过程中的酸甜苦辣,可谓贴切又明了。

    《岁月如歌》舞蹈语汇较为舒展、简洁,以手臂、双腿的直线延伸为­主,技术技巧的使用自然融洽,符合舞蹈情感需要。

    该作品于2002年荣获第七届“桃李杯”舞蹈比赛群舞古典舞蹈创­作二等奖,表演一等奖;2004年荣获第六届全国舞蹈比赛群舞创­作一等奖,表演一等奖。

  • the music is fucking horible at times tho

  • Who said that he will beat China, culture, war, wealth? I think Chinese will beat them all.

  • Comment removed

  • This is amazing. Freaky, but amazing.

  • not THAT super! uneven ,not ffuid at times. so many dancers not easy

  • To think even the backup dancers had to pay years of blood, sweat, and time just for those moments on stage. Let's not even get into the lead dancers.

  • exquisite. divine.

  • excelente

  • wow. the emotion in the dancers faces made me so sad.. there are times when I can almost swear that some are close to tears if not crying during the performance. Incredible!! Thank goodness humans have been given the gift to enjoy art. . .

  • Quite amazing I really should be in bed but could not stop watching this film I will watch it again tomorrow and have posted it to my dancing son so he can share it with his company. How inspiring.

  • Makes one think, this kind of elegance. Defiantly should put raunchy cheerleaders to shame. It's not meant as JUST dance. It's a story. Of what? Maybe triumph over the harshness of reality, or how harmonious life can be. But, it much more then just dance. Truly beautiful <3 (Ps I am NOT dissing all cheer leading. Just the kind that has the girls flashing there crotches to the world. At least these dancers have the decency to cover up [and note they dance just as well or BETTER])

  • HOLY CRUD THAT'S AMAZING THEY R ALL LIKE KICK KICK ROLL like it's nothing god

  • it freaks me out how crazy in sync they are!

  • really pretty

  • I'm actually thinking. Why is it that Chinese people have to be so flexible and me not...:) Just Kidding.

  • ОЧЕНЬ КРАСИВО И ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНО!!!)

  • nice, but not particularly great. 

  • how can anyone dislike this i would die to be in a performance as beautiful as this is!

  • That was so beautiful (tear)

  • 2:58 to 3:06 : WTH ?! That's realy weird and not realy beautiful !

  • MOVEMENTS NOT SYNCHRONIZED!!!!

  • @misspeckpeck seriously? i think the only parts that arent synchronized are the parts that are meant to be slightly different.

    personally i think this dance is gorgeous. :)

  • @soulxdew21 How did you know the parts that are meant to be slightly different? Are you a member of this group? You must be Chinese.... no wonder......

  • @misspeckpeck Well I've learned and performed this dance before, with a different dance group though. LOL and I am Chinese. :)

  • ok. if you want an amazing experiance... and i usually do not like it when people over rite the original music... but if you have two tabs up. have them both on youtube of course, and you play this one.. put it on mute. put the other page on : Winter Song - Sara Bareilles/Ingrid Michaelson- Music Video ... put this video so you can see it. but listen to the other song. start both at the same time. and watch the dance. it is unbelivable. the only downside is the song ends before the dance.

  • nice color coordinations and moves :) i really love it

  • Splendido, meravigliosa sincronia.

  • This piece is amazing! its like idk how to explain so in sync and elegant and poised man!!!!! i LOVE DANCE =)

  • Wow, such beauty and grace in this difficult piece of art :)

  • Wow really amazing dance.

  • Totally Awesome-I Really Enjoyed It

  • I am on a pilgrimage. Stumbling across this dance is like arriving at a secret shrine to the truth and beauty of women and all that challenges and inspires us.

  • супер !!!!

  • amazing just amazing

  • Not my thing, but it's damn beautiful. (:

  • Can someone give me a brief on the plot?!

  • It will NEVER be as good as ballet:(

  • @whateverdud666 that's not the point

  • @whateverdud666 ballet maybe be incredibly beutiful yes, but i do chinese traditional dance and its a complete different concept :)

  • amaizing¡¡¡¡ hermosa y sorprendente

  • I love Chinese civilisation deeply..........

  • Just incredible - I love how they do a lot of traditional balletic movements but also some more powerful jumps and basic tumbling, it's got great variety. Wish I was that flexible lol

  • omg their amazing i lurv dancing so maybe maybe i'll be like 'em!!!

    MAYBE??!!!!xxxx

  • absolutely amazing!!! :)

  • Personally I found this very riveting and engaging throughout... they are all such beautifully trained dancers! The music (heavenly voices!) and the movement meshed so well together, props to the choreographer(s). This is so gorgeous, thank you for sharing. :)

  • @GymnasticDancer I agree

  • Fantastic.  I really wanted to see this live.

  • never seen anything like this before

  • I hated modern ballet... until now. ^^

  • i hit this blunt and ended up here.... LMAO this dance.. its so intriguing right now...

  • What's the name of the first song?

  • wow really beautiful and inspiring movement of dance.

  • People who disliked this are just racist. How can this be disliked? It's amazing.

  • soo nice!! <3

  • syncronization is of a great level

  • This is absolutely breathtaking. Their unison was immaculate. I love it.

  • THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! they are SOOOOO flexible!

  • this was really beautiful they were so graceful and full of passion i woulda loved to see that in person

  • beautiful and it really touched me

  • Aren't the Chinese known for their synchronization? I still adore it.

  • Thanks for the info. aznivy.

    I thought this was amazing and the unison was really terrific. Are any of this class gymnasts? Also it was so.... elegant.

  • What is it with the chinese coming out with all of this awesome stuff?

  • thank you! :')

  • love it!!

  • omggg

  • what is the song?

  • this dance is about a class at Sichuan Dance Academy. the choreography is so precise because it is made up of all of the routines and training they do in class. notice the class picture at 6:45? these girls spent years together training and dancing everyday. the bonds between them are so strong!

  • LOVE IT]

  • At the beginning it's a bit slow. Then the other dudes come rolling in. The music starts. The main two dancers in white gradually and gracefully execute the introduction. A variety of dance moves follow and I think all together it's wonderfully executed, brilliant :D

  • OMG nice

    

  • truly amazing!

  • BEAUTIFUL!

  • I have no words for this.....every motion..beautiful...this takes time effort and lots of practice..very good (:

  • this made me cry. i envy them.

  • Beautifully arranged dance:)

  • so beatifull!

  • China is very large country... no wonder to see that kind of God-given talent!

  • SUPERB!

  • very beautiful.  i liked 5:40 alot.

  • Quite the most beautiful display I have ever witnessed. The girls are all so serine and delicate and the movements controlled and refined. If they dance like this in heaven, I'm ready to go now!

  • BEAUTIFULLL!!!!

  • beautiful dance!

  • the technique is breathtaking, but what more? what about wild burst of emotional conflicts in movement. Where is soul,where the magic tha tis cojured up by secret deep emotionol struggles or harmony? disappointing ! If they didn't have this perfection it wouldn't be such an "affront". The way it is it scares me: how long have they been squeezed to fit the functional perfection throughout their short lives?

  • am spellbound....no words realy.........how many days of rehearsal does it needed?

  • AMAZING is the only word that comes to mind! (:

  • i dont like it.theyere like robots!!where is the natural movement of body?!

  • @renadance i bet you have no idea about what dance is, or dances are, they are all different.
