  • En primer termino quiero destacar la limpieza y dinamica de este Divertimento pues

    se trata de un documento historico....La plastica y destreza de Evdokimova ,la ligereza y coqueteria de Thesmar, la entrega en el baile y la gracia de Fracci; pero

    tambien me gusta destacar el dominio escenico y la interpretacion extraordinaria

    de Alonso en Mme. Taglioni y seria bueno senalar que las tres anteriores son

    mucho mas jovenes que ella... Bravo Sra. Alonso....Ud. es la danza misma!!!!!!

  • The very end particularly is perfection. Oddly, as happens in the opening section, here too, the allegro footwork (échappés & passés back-to-back, moving around to the right) gets a bit jumbled/messed. Looks like maybe Mlle. Fracci does an extra échappé rather than a passé at one point. Picky, I know. Doesn't change the fact that it's lovely & instructive to have this. THANK YOU!

  • Alonsois de BEST !!! love her !!!

  • ¡¡¡POR DIOS SANTO CUANTO TALENTO!!! JERARQUIA PURA, LLEVADA, AL

    MAS ALTO VUELO ARTISTICO. DANZA DE LA MEJOR, DEPURACION Y ESTILO

    DE LA MEJOR CALIDAD. ¡¡¡QUE MAS SE PUEDE PEDIR!!! GRANDIOSAS!!!!

  • Phew. Does it get any better than this! All four ladies with their own unsurpassed style. It is a true meeting of the greats of ballet. All four are national and international heroines, and no wonder. Yet these etoiles come together for this performance clearly acknowledging the greatness of their three "sisters".

  • I love how you can see Evdokimova springing up just a little higher than everyone else, and landing a little softer, yet she is still perfectly on the music.

  • fracci is beatiful

  • Bravo! Fracci!

  • just a small correction: Eva Evdokimova was never at Staatsballett Berlin, because that company did not exist at this time. She was dancing at Deutsche Oper Berlin Ballet (a company that does not exist anymore, it became Staatsballett Berlin together with Staatsoper Berlin Ballett).

    But great video! Thanks for posting.
