Like how is everything that Nela does PERFECT??! Like wow just wow! amazing dancing! like no other.
I could listen to Pat's stories about working with as well as being a dancer with Mr. B for hours! She's such a great storyteller! She definitely deserves to wind down her teaching career and has worked so hard! Thanks for everything Ms. Neary!
One of the best insights I've ever seen!!! Absolutely wonderful!!
I was lucky enough to be in the room watching this live! Such a magical evening!
Wow, what an absolute treat to watch. So many greats in one space at one time; the Dancers, Pianists, Dame Monica in the audience and of course the Queen that is Pat Neary, what an incredible woman. The interviewer did such a great job too. Thank you for this insight!
It's hard not to see the beautiful emotion and respect for Pat Neary. I am sorry to hear she's winding down; thousands of dancers' hearts have her in them.
cannot imagine a future without Marianela Nunez, always unparalleled blend of musicality, grace, loveliness, strength and ballet perfection. She truly combines the best of all the great ballet schools found around the world
You bet! I've been watching her for 25 years now and is still too me the best all round dancer we have. A lovely person with a beautiful smile that lights up covent garden.
Pat was amazing❤ and it was very nice of Will thanking the pianist, Michael 🩶
What can I say of the great Balanchine, he gave ballet a new edge that is stunning to this day
I saw all the great dancers back in the day. Patricia was incredible. It was standing ovation every night . Such beauty at every performance. Sad to say ballet is getting away from this kind of beauty. Just lovd anything Balanchine
I rewatched the Symphony in C PDD, and this time I noticed how many unusual touches there are in the partnering, and how perfectly Reece Clark does them.
My heart is so full, thank you for posting this ❤
Really enjoyed this. Mayara is perfect in this role!
Lauren and William seem to give us a conversation of musicality. It was so enjoyable and dynamic!
The talent at The Royal is truly exceptional at the moment and these recordings are a blessing to watch. There is nothing like a direct link to a choreographer to maintaining the original ideas and Miss Neary is such a Balanchine expert, who makes the rehearsals even more interesting. I wish her a long and happy retirement with her husband.
Pat Neary is delightful, such a wonderful expression of respect, candor and reverance for Mr. B.
WONDERFUL. Thank you.
What a joy this insight was!
Balanchine sculpted the dancers into musicality and the beat of the music, absolutely genius! I am so delighted to have seen this !❤❤❤
Thank you! This is amazing! 🩵🩵
Cannot wait for Pat to come back 😢😂🥰🥰🥰🥰
In my opinion the Royal Ballet is the only company that dances Balanchine as well as NYCB does. How I wish he had lived to choreograph a ballet on Marianela Nuñez!
Marianela would definitely be one of his muses !
Just booked tickets for tomorrow! Excited 😍
The Balanchine Trust, to preserve the integrity of Balanchine's ballets, requires that any Balanchine ballet danced by another company be staged by a repetiteur who was a former Balanchine dancer who had danced the role for Balanchine himself. (I don't know if that would be required for ballet companies led by say, Edward Villella, who knew the male roles, including Prodigal.)
so how long before they all leave the earth and no more Balanchine ballets can be danced?
Fabulous ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She’s amazing. She must be in her 80’s now
83!
Pat Neary has a lot of integrity toward Mr. B and the Balanchine Heritage.
❤❤❤
ულამაზესია სუფთა და დახვეწილი ❤❤❤
Marianela 🥰
I was lucky enough to be in the royal opera house on opening night last Friday, with Lauren, William, Mayara, Nela, Reece, and others (Cesar Corrales, Natalia Osipova, Melissa Hamilton, Ryoichi Hirano, Anna-Rose O’Sullivan, Fumi Kaneko, Vadim Muntagirov). It was incredible to see such different choreography to what I’m used to seeing from the Royal Ballet and so many principals on stage at once. They were beautiful.
There are never enough superlatives for Nela.

I didn't remember Prodigal Son was so very angular, so modern for 1928. She is often taller than the man, she is overpowering him.
👏👏
William Bracewell is such an artist.........
Is Lauren doing Russian Girl or Waltz Girl from Serenade
waltz
Dr. Zira
Not all great ballerinas took to Balanchine. Natalia Makarova, who really didn't 'get' Balanchine, and Margot Fonteyn, who took a crack at "Ballet Imperial", fell three times during performance, and hated it. Just "not her thing", American ballerina, Patricia Wilde, once said.
Yvonne was of American Indian ancestry? I knew that she was born in South Africa.
Instead of Mounsey, do you mean Yvonne Chouteau, one of the 5 Moons?
@ deborahhigginbotham7276. Sorry. I mistakenly attributed that remark to Mounsey. It was actually Patricia Wilde who said that. In an interview, she'd recalled how she and Fonteyn would take class with Vera Volkova, and get dressed for class together. She also recalled how Fonteyn "hated" dancing Balanchine.
And Balanchine didn’t like Fonteyn’s dancing that much; he said her hands were like spoons. 🤷🏻♀️
I just really want Nela and Vadim back together, this partnership isn't working for me.
She was excellent with Will Bracewell in Romeo and Juliet. I think her regular partnership with Vadim is maybe over.
@@Missfrankiecat it's most certainly not over! First because it's legendary, second because it makes the RB tons of money. It's just been unlucky that Vadim has been recovering from surgery for most of the season.
@@Missfrankiecat I never said anything about her partnership with Bracewell which works just fine for me. She's not dancing with him in this video.
@ let's hope you're right but he was paired with Fumi Kaneko from before his injury (Winter's Tale) and in everything since (R & J, Balanchine). I don't think that's a coincidence. I think RB may think they can double revenue by separating their most lucrative stars - Nunez (who always sells seats whoever she dances with) and a real-life couple with the 'shipping factor' of a lot of fans for Vadim/Fumi.
@@VanessaBritneyTaylor I'm well aware. She's dancing with multiple partners this season.
