Excerpt from Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream Overture | San Francisco Ballet Orchestra
Переглядів 4443 місяці тому
For George Balanchine, the biggest inspiration for-and obstacle to-a full-length Midsummer had been the score. He adored Mendelssohn’s Midsummer music, but there wasn’t enough of it. Mendelssohn had composed music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream in two parts. After reading the play at age 17, he wrote a concert overture, a shimmering work capturing the magic and whimsy of the play in music. Sixte...

As a disabled artist myself Frida has always been an inspiration. Can’t wait to see this
I saw this for the 23/24 season and it was magical and captivating and deeply moving.
Please consider naming the pianists in your videos.
Such a beautiful explanation!
I saw this performance live, it was captivating!!!
I love this interpretation, she is so inside it, there's no self-consciousness or showing off--the blackout comes to soon though
what a beautiful description
Got a chance to meet her and get an autograph after Swan Lake, she was mesmerizing
Jasmine is a wonderful dancer, so glad she got promoted to principal. She was absolutely amazing in SL!
Justamente ayer fui a una obra de teatro del lago de los cisnes en Greenville Sur Carolina y llamó mucho mi atención ver el nombre de un mexicano y me sentí orgullosa de ser mexicana 🙌🏼 y que México esté llegando lejos 🇲🇽
I saw her step in for an injured Natalia Osipova in Swan Lake. It was stunning--an evening I will never forget.
Absolutely stunning
oh i missed this performance ! so colorful!
I love absolutely everything about this video. ❤️❤
what a thrilling last two years and so excited to have seen so many of these moments. Looking forward to more beautiful moments of Jasmine's artistry, technique and love of dance. BRAVA!
Jasmine is such a sweetheart. Can’t wait to see her career progress!
I couldn't attend the Frida and Mere Mortals ☹☹☹ PLEASE bring them back !!!!! it's hurts knowing they are gone and we won't enjoy that experience
Broken Wings (The Frida Kahlo Ballet) will return next season!!
omg spectacular!
LOVE!!!!!!!
omg wow so much work goes into this!!! loved this video!!!! thank you for showcasing the artist and also the two painters at the end....
lovely thank you for this interview, very interesting learned something new
This is a true polished professional performance of Midsummer by the SF Ballet. I've seen it numerous times with NYC Ballet, and this is totally on a par with the New York City Ballet standard. The Balanchine Trust requires that a Balanchine trained former dancer be hired to supervise the technical aspects, so that every company that dances a Balanchine ballet remains true to Balanchine's original intent.
Best Nutcracker EVER!
Nice
We just saw the performance on the 3rd, just yesterday, and it was spectacular! Thank you so much for spending your time to learn this discipline. It is a wonderful experience! 🫶
Just saw Jasmine Jimison in Swan Lake. She was spectacular--I've only seen Marianela Nuñez dance it so beautifully.
I saw Tiit and Molly dance the leads in La Fille Mal Gardee with Birmingham Royal Ballet many years ago and they were both sublime in the principal roles. Wishing him a happy retirement.
Wishing the very best for her
Beautifully described, and soulfully danced.
What a charming personality she is! Taught me a lot of what swans go through.
I want to do this in my small community! Fabulous dynamic movement for this community! Keep it up!💗
I loved watching. Would love to see more.
She is delightful!
Absolutely marvelous educational tool!!
I would love to see this!
Happy Retirement, Tiit! Thank you for your artistry. ❤️
A long term ballet goer it was the best thing I’ve seen in a long long time
It was really really cool experience. It was like seeing modern arts.
Just saw. MIND BLOWN!!! Extreme eclectic futuristic ballet performance and music. Highly recommended
This is hands down the best show I've ever seen. I'm going to the Encore twice this week. Get tickets!!
Outstanding … even without the compliments of costumes!! You clearly can see the expression, the lines and fluidity of the performance!! Yuan Yuan Tan…. truly amazing !! 🙄😱👏
She’s a rare gem in the world of ballet!! I challenge anybody to find, anywhere in the world, a world class ballerina 🩰 like her, who can maintain her prime level of performance for nearly 3 decades!! There’s only one Yuan Yuan Tan and never will be another one ever even come close to her anywhere in the world!! 😳👏🩰
