Balanchine choreography is straight torture and yet so exquisite

I have never seen such a beautiful ballerina in every sence. Thank you Gelsey Kirkland!

Dance starts in 8:50

Thank goodness for this record of these artists and performances… I still close my eyes when this ballet is performed and see Gelsey as resplendent as in this and numerous other ballets. Thoroughly spoiled and utterly grateful

She makes every single movement seem full of meaning, momentous, important. Like a 'language" of movement. Don't know how she does it. At the same time she appears so vulnerable somehow. A beautifully sensitive performance (performer). Of course Baryshnikov is as stylish as always, and the corps de b is great too. A++ work of art all round.

.

They should have interviewed her before the performance. She is struggling to breath.

I like seeing Balanchine done by Russian dancers. In this, I thought the lead girl got it right, and her partner didn't.. Somehow, (I am not a pro dancer) the effect was not quite modern. Still, I love the music, and the choreography.

I've always loved this music,, and the choreography for this is brilliant. I was surprised how wonderful young Barishnikov and Kirkland were, especially her. I saw one slight flub; but she had a personal quality that just lit up the material. i also thought the costumes were gorgeous. Thanks ABT & Baja0270.

gelsey is number 1 of the prima ballerina

My kitty that passed I named him Misha😢

I love this ballett and like seing it again! A beautiful team with great stars! ABT dancers with no prpblems dancing Balanchine style.Great Gelsey and Baryshnikov! Adorable done!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💐

So glad that this was preserved, especially if it was their last performance together.

Misha's performance is breathtaking as usual

Eccezionali le parti corali ove il corollario danzante conviene veloce in un ensemble tanto spontaneo quanto di difficile orchestrazione. E' solo da immaginare il lavoro che lo sottende.Bighin GIULIO RENZO

Gelsey is So BRILLIANT and she has such a DELICATE QUALITY when she dances. She Radiantly SPARKLES in her Precise execution of the Choreography.🌹 And, Misha, is, of course, PERFECTION! 💙 💙 Who could ask for a more beautiful ballet partnership? ABSOLUTELY GLORIOUS!!🌟🌟🌟

Gelsey is the only ballerina that could out dance Baryshnikov. Period.

Gelsey ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!

Fabulous. Thanks.

Speed is crap, and I dislike Balanchine choreography. Takes away the spirit & emotion of what ballet should be.

Magnificent. Saw it live on stage and I cannot believe the brilliance of the dancing by Gelsey and Mihail.

Hermoso, insuperable, maravilloso

Go Mischa Go! Gorgeous form as always. I think I actually was in the State Theater for this performance...it doesn't look like the Met where ABT always performed. Those were the days, my friend.

Balanchine and Tchaikovsky; a match made in heaven. And surely also Kirkland and Baryshnikov. And oh, that sweeping grand polonaise that ends this wonderful ballet .

The interview !

Glorious

I wish, I could see the first interpretation with Alicia Alonso

a miniature ballerina, and a completely unsuitable partner for her M. Baryshnikov (... Mikhail's weak duet technique is too noticeable ... He performs twists and high supports with great difficulty (the partner does not have elegance, beautiful lines and poses)

7:52 Bravo !

SHE WAS IT!!!!!!

GREAT PERFORMANCES: LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER AMERICAN BALLET THEATER AT THE METROPOLITAN OPERA (Live broadcast) Network: PBS WNET New York, NY Date: May 17, 1978 Following "Theme and Variations" Robert MacNeil interviews Gelsey Kirkland

Al fin he visto Temas y variaciones de Balanchine, es espectacular como todo lo de Balanchine WOW

Que tal master uc3m

sorry, but it looks a little clumsy... and what happened to the tempo?

Geniuses all baby

this was the golden era of classical ballet, is so sad watching young people now try to lift the legs higher without understanding what dance is. She is so beautiful and the whole ABT is perfect

Here I am in 2020, in stunned and joyful silence. What a performance by all the dancers and orchestra. So many comments boil down to, “Gelsey, Gelsey, Gelsey!” I couldn’t agree more. What an artist.

A.B.T. Soiree. The great artist : Balanchine, Tchaikovsky, Barishnikov, Kirkland. My golden age. 🎵🎵💎❤️😎

Thank you!magnificant

Who is the dancer in 9:39?

Barashnikov does not meet ballet standards. He is a dancer for the modern style, not for the classics.

Such small dancers (For the classics of Balanchine, beautiful, high dancers are needed. Godunov Alexander and Dominic Kalfuni or Eva Evdokimova - these would be diamonds!

Wow. And I thought Russians owned ballet. I guess Gelsey Kirkland owns it lol. This is the most incredible performance of a ballerina I’ve ever seen. She’s unreal. She’s near flawless. Where can I find more gelsey material? Doesn’t seem to be much on UA-cam, of decent quality anyways.

Первое желание, которое возникает, это пересмотреть версию с Барышниковым и Киркленд. Я это сделала и поняла, что я их версию и до этого любила, а теперь еще больше буду любить. Настоящие артисты. А насколько Барышников внешне лучше выглядит по сравнению с Фарухом, с его изящными стопами, грацией, пропорциональной фигурой. И темп, конечно... похоронный марш.

The first desire that arises is to revise the version with Baryshnikov and Kirkland. I did this and realized that I had loved their version before, and now I will love it even more. Real artists.
