I was a little hesitant to tread on sacred ground by watching this. I have seen several dozen live productions, and I own both the Nureyev and Baryshnikov versions on DVD. I adore this ballet.
So glad I went ahead and tried it. It was a glorious experience when I realized how well the music had been blended: how beautiful the colors and costumes....and that I actually recognized a number of wonderful dancers from "So You Think You Can Dance". Comfort, Fic-shun and Twitch were among my favorites! And suddenly...there was Baryshnikov smiling and enjoying the production.
I found it compelling and really well done. I loved every minute of this late night (for me) adventure and plan to watch it again. Delicious! I am glad that at my age , 79, I can still enjoy new and different things and events.
