I don't know anything about ballet. I'm only an admirer. To me this performance is breath taking. It opens my eyes to the beauty of life. I would never have the opportunity to watch something like this with my TV. This is what I love about YouTube. Bravo. Bravo.

Paying tribute to Isadora does not necessarily mean resembling her. Tamara interprets it in her own style, and she is wonderful just as she is.

Dreadful! The movement is "all over the place".
When Lynn Seymour performed this it was thoracically centered. Everything evolved in waves of senuousity from a vivid solar plexus ALIVE with sensation.
This is all balletically "decorative" --- hardly Isadorean.
Seymour was Duncan Resurrected.

To all those who thinks that this is mockery of Isadora's technique and style, in another video it says that Ashton was 'inspired' by Isadora to create this piece, he wasn't trying to copy her or re-create her. Anyway how can you expect anybody to accurately interpret Isadora's choreography or movements? Dancers and choreographers are all individuals.

@amythomas171993 same here. oh well

Absolutely breath-taking. My favorite ballerina performing in the style of my favorite modern dancer. Who could ask for more :)

There used to be a video of Lynn Seymour dancing this at the Met's 100 birthday gala.
She was the dancer this was originally made for.
It's quite different in interpretation, much earthier less airy.
I hope someone can post it.

It is a shame that there is so little footage of Isadora herself
-
I thought Kenneth Macmillian choreographed it in the early 1980s?
-
there is actual Duncan Choreography to this music and this is not it. While a very nice effort this barely has any Duncan movement. But a nice Modern Piece.
-
I am sorry, but I just don't feel it possible to not react to this. How can you pay a tribute to someone, whom you don't know anything about? Because it is obvious that both the dancer and the choreographer have no understanding of the ideals of Isadora. And connecting your work with the name of Isadora Duncan imposes you a great responsibility.

so nice ! Isadora herself couldn't have done better.

Just a quick note to remember to all the dance professors here around that the choreographer of this ballet is Sir Frederick Ashton (founder choreographer of the London Royal Ballet) and NOT Tamara Rojo.
