  • Royal Ballet Principals Marianela Nuñez and Thiago Soares rehearse 'Diamonds' from George Balanchine's Jewels with Elyse Borne. Find out more at www.roh.org.uk/...
    Now celebrating its 50th year, George Balanchine’s sparkling ballet still shines with all the brilliance of the gemstones that inspired it.
    George Balanchine’s glittering ballet Jewels was inspired by the beauty of the gem stones he saw in the New York store of jewellers Van Cleef & Arpels. He went on to make history with this, the first abstract three-act ballet, first performed in 1967 by New York City Ballet. Jewels was performed in full by The Royal Ballet for the first time in 2007, using costume designs from the original NYCB production and new set designs by Jean-Marc Puissant.
    Each of the three movements draws on a different stone for its inspiration and a different composer for its sound. The French Romantic music of Fauré provides the impetus for the lyricism of ‘Emeralds’. The fire of ‘Rubies’ comes from Stravinsky and the jazz-age energy of New York. Grandeur and elegance complete the ballet in ‘Diamonds’, with the splendour of Imperial Russia and Tchaikovsky’s opulent Third Symphony. Each section salutes a different era in classical ballet’s history as well as a distinct period in Balanchine’s own life. Through it all, Balanchine displays his genius for combining music with visionary choreography.

    I truly believe Marianela is the best ballerina of our times, she's technically perfect and she's so expressive when she dances that she never fails to amaze you. I've been lucky enough to see her perform twice at the Royal Opera House and both times she left the audience truly astonished. I hope she'll be dancing for many more years, the ballet world deserves a true artist like the divine Nela

    Marianela makes me want to cry. She is so beautiful. I think that she has set a standard for what the ballerina should be. Technically brilliant and emotionally stunning. I pray that one day I may se her in person or take a class with or from her.

    What I adore about nela is, yes she works so hard, but it looks so effortless. With other ballerinas it's always a 'chore' it's always ''drama'. Not with her, Nela loves it, and you can tell she loves it and like Elyse Borne says, it's infectious, you catch yourself smiling as you watch this rehearsal.

      Ugh Marianela Nunez (Love her so much!) ! She makes me feel like she is in love with each partner she has in a pas de deux. She's so compatible and expressive!! She's my idol! The Ugh part is whenever I see her partner with someone else I'm not used to, I feel she's cheating on the early partner. It's all in my head I know.. She's such a wonderful actress! XD She's a stunner!
      EDIT: When you first starting reading this you probably thought I was a hater. But of course not she's fabulous! I hope to be like her one day! Dancing with my dream company the ROH!

    Nela totally rules, and this is a lovely partnership. Fond as I was of Sylvie Guillem, no ballerina has had this sense of joy in the music and the movement since Martine van Hamel. I used to say that no one moved like her---and now I've found someone else to say this about! I've been suffering for want of a Nela fix since our local cinemas stopped hosting the RB productions and have to be thankful for any of Nela's work that gets posted on YT and not pulled down by ROH. I can only imagine how great this perf will be.

    There’s a sense of daring in the way Nuñez dances Diamonds, an almost Farrell-like willingness to throw all caution to the wind and just, GO FOR IT! So different in approach to the plodding, ponderous and posey way the Bolshoi and Maryinsky ballerinas take this piece. And so, so, so much more enthralling.
