Lovely. Charming. Eternal. Thank you, I had this to watch with my breakfast. I had been feeling sorry for myself, but now realize how disgusting self pity is in the presence of such holiness and beauty. Self pity is blasphemous in its presence. I am whole again.
I loved this performance. The symbolic scenography from Buren is giving space for imagination and dancers self expression. For those who don't get touched by this I only see the eternal gap of appreciation between abstract and figurative art. I think what Millepied express the most perfectly is the individuality of the female and male identity inside the couple which is for me the heart of the love story of Daphnis and Chloe. How this awake for love is kept as an intimate secret and the intimidations comfort them in the sincerity of their feelings. Everything is symbolic in this story and this intepretation reinfocrce the myth. Does one really need a sheep to act like a shepherd ?
For the life of me, I can't understand why you need all these garish primary colors. You should be able to understand the meaning of it all in black and white. And what kind of simpleton needs to see all these big clunky humans sweating their way through such elaborate exertions? The music alone should be enough stimulation for the mind to conjure up this timeless story...if you have a mind. Come to think of it, why this tiresome, antiquated dependence on music? Music is the same old noise that's been polluting the air of theatres for centuries without end. You should be able to fully appreciate this great masterpiece of early 20th century symbolism by reading the scenario and dance notations. You have imaginations, do you not? You want the artists to spoon feed the whole experience to you? Why, just thinking about the title alone should be sufficient...if your mind is reasonably developed, that is. What is it you want...to be stimulated...or God forbid, entertained?
@@baldevis Music pollutes theaters?? Personally, I feel it enhances the imagination. I’m reading the story by Longus while listening to and studying the score. It’s a beautiful experience that Ravel captures and brightens through his brilliant craftsmanship of orchestration and sound-color.
@@baldevis Yes, actually. I genuinely didn’t know you were being sarcastic (I’m Autistic). So yes, it’s hard for me to read sarcasm via text. My apologies.
It is obvious that this is a ballet for orchestral performance. However, I enjoyed the Paris Opera Ballet performance very much. So much of Ravel's score is cerebral and it could never be physicalized. It would take a fantastic choreographer to capture the Ravel vision. However, the ballet as conceived really captures some of the intent of Ravel's vision and the choreographer succeeds to a great extent. For those who have been enchanted by Ravel's score and choreographed it within their own mind, ballet is a prisoner of convention. Modern dance would be a more immediate expression of what Ravel intended. Ravel would have needed a movie version to fully realize what he was trying to dramatize. The wind machine within the ballet setting didn't quite do it for me who always conceptualized the wind as outdoors in a sea-like setting. I think a modern dance version filmed so that non-ballet aspects could be included. Constant twirling and dancing within the confines of the stage is not what Ravel conceived. He was too imaginative for old-fashioned ballet. The pirates were not scary enough! His music is absolutely terrifying. The conventions of the stage and group ballet dancing just did not capture the drama of what Ravel was trying to show. I hope someday we can bring the Ravel vision to life. His glorious music deserves this kind of realization. Maybe some great movie director would work with a ballet choreographer and come up with a more Ravel oriented vision of the ballet.
Leo Catalano What an interesting comment about how to translate Ravel's vision into an appropriate medium. I have only heard an orchestral performance so your comments intrigue me. I need to think about this some more. I have spent. my life in film, tv and the general concept of presentation and representation as an academic. I lol when you said the pirates were not scary enough, then immediately justified it by commenting on how terrifying Ravel's music is. I am extremely intrigued by your comment. Thanks for the insight. .
I thought I had heard all the music, but there was more than I remembered; and what a gorgeous score it is! I very much liked the choreography; thought the story was clear. LOVED the costumes. This seems an ideal role for Aurelia Dupont. She is always so cool and detached, which was perfect for this; and she seemed to be enjoying herself. I thought the simplicity of design really helped; I think a real Pan, and pastoral peasants, and pirates would have actually gotten in the way, and dated it a bit.
Absolutely stunning. Hypnotic dance. Color is used beautifully, if not a bit garishly. Everyone is timestamping the lever du jour, but I will time stamp the lovely supplication dance at 35:14. Tantalizing music and choreo.
the dancing and music is superb although the lack of a setting is quite.... unsettling. *ba dum tss* anyways a good performance although the ballet company could've made an effort for design
Is this the only way ballet is staged these days.....no theatricality, no spectacle? The opulence of Ravel's evocative music is a jarring contrast to the blankness of this design with its primary-color costumes and bare stage. If it's only about the dancing and nothing else, just film it in a dance studio. I've always tthought of ballet as a more multi-faceted art form.....a form of theatre. This sort of thing seems to be for dance enthusiasts only.

I agree. This seems better for me: czcams.com/video/VrLRHXxKIZ0/video.html
How I see it is that that’s probably how people use to feel about it in the past. I think the stylings evoke perfectly the beginnings of sport culture at the time which was a big influence later in the art deco aesthetics, sculpture of the 30’s. This ballet is one of these avant garde pieces so I see what they were going for. Think of it as a post impressionist piece

Sem dúvida nenhuma , uma das melhores obras de RAVEL

Coreograficamente despertó mi interés recién después de los primeros 30 minutos. Musicalmente impecable y emocionante cómo siempre.

It’s a miracle. 😎🎹
This is so beautiful. I wonder if it's possible to purchase a proper recording of this performance.

Acho que se tivesse o cenário florestal ficaria mais legal ainda
