i have to say. the second girl was not up to P.O.B. standard, she was behind the music and in the releve thingys at around 2:20 she looked really weak and was using her arms to help her get up on pointe. the first girl was amazing though, her control and lines and everything.

paris opera has the best corps i think, everyone is in sync and all have theire legs at the same height.

Beautiful...

The second one did those relevés at the end so badly that even the camera man noticed.

POB has the best corps #Fact

@hensster that first girl is Agnes Letestu! She was very young back then. You can see from this clip why she later became a principal dancer! Her third shade variation was my favourite

@hensster. Several years have passed since your comment, but today the Mariinsky has the finest corps anywhere. As for Letestu's variation, it was as fine as any that I have seen. The poor second girl, a veteran dancer, was simply having one of those bad nights.She is better than she showed here.

@maisumnomundo any dancer would know that the slightest change in weight placement or getting tired in the releves at the end of the second shade could get you stuck on the spot...as she became. once you get stuck the only thing you can do is to keep trying to go up and forward as she did.
