Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker - 10 Spanish dancers in the "Land of Peace and Harmony"

The Spanish dancers and puppets set the tone with the leaps and spins of Flamenco, the click of castanets, strumming guitars and great bulls and bull fighters

the bull was a little distracting

hmmm... not lively and fun enough - the music should really be milked in this case ....no pun intended...

@A2KCraziez Yes, I agree. At my studio, our two Spanish dancers had fans and did the Spanish out-turned hand in third. They also did not dance as gently as other dancers, which is more expected of the Spanish.

hahaha... at 0:55 there is a bull playing the guitar

I thought the dancing was really good but I feel like they didn't have the Spanish fire that I always hear about. I am a ballerina and I was actually the Spanish Queen in our Nutcracker Ballet and our instructor always commented how we need to be more fierce in our dancing, like we are better than everyone else. However, I loved it! Great job!

I saw this!

The danceing is gorgeous, but I agree with the many that have written that the other characters in the background are very distracting.

@bladooblishnamango3 I'm in the Nutcracker and the Spanish are on Character shoes. It makes me a little bummed to see all the other great companies do it en pointe while the MN Ballet chose heels, but I'm still thrilled to be in it anyways :)
