Bolshoi ballet: the nutcracker. One of the most beautiful works of Tchaikovsky. I am a pianist and I am part of an orchestra in Mexico, yesterday we presented the Nutcracker, we have a magnificent ballet company and a beautiful Italian theater style of the 18th century What I admire about this video is the great professionalism of the musicians, everyone knows what their musical function and is not intended to be above others, as always it happens in my country. In my country there is a lot of talent, but there is no sense of professionalism and ethics. An example of why I like to share is this. Sometimes we don¨t have harps in schools and in orchestras for lack of funds, and a practical way to fix it is to play the harp and celesta parts with keyboards, it is sometimes necessary to bring extra musicians from other cities to reinforce the orchestra, but musicians often come with a bad attitude because they think they are superior to others, and blame others for their own mistakes. Worst of all is that the director is the least ethic has, speaks evil things of all musicians and causing enmity between them. I studied piano for several years in the United States and Europe, the level was very good, all played very well and nobody envied anyone, all we said: I like how he plays this piece or this sonata, whatever. Now as a professional musician in my country, I find mediocre pianists who are glorious when another pianist makes a mistake, and they want to play a part in harp with an exaggerated volume in a work like the nutcracker, a situation that becomes a ridiculous situation is a sad and painful. I hope that one day change.
I read some comments that kaptsova and alexandrova were retired by decition of the bolshoi director and they both are working under contract because of her fans. This is very sad.
So pretty.
Happy Yule ????.
