Dotantsuy until retirement

Ballet, ballet, ballet ... Not the most important of the arts, but gracefully. Ballet shrouded in many myths about the barracks discipline, and the incredible performance of fragile ballerinas legends. Always straight as a chord, with proud head planted on a long thin neck, splayed feet, and some inner concentration they seem like people from another planet. And they do others. Goddess Terpsichore Dance - exacting person, complete dedication to her little will, it requires sacrifice. The whole life of the artists goes on stage at the other time left. They come here in ten years, small children, and go ... and go - through the efforts of our legislators - sixty




1. Early morning. The Ballet School named after Seleznyov rise



2. Heavenly Swallows wake



3. Today, hard day, the beginning of the international competition of Orel. Student of 3rd class Elchibaeva Malik - one of the participants. But first study, from a comprehensive school ballet does not relieve



4. To study the school is much more complicated than in a normal school. Besides the usual, like all children, the lessons of mathematics there are many special items



5. And the endless, from dawn to dusk, rehearsals. Today is the first lesson - a classic



6. Rule "is hard to learn - easy in battle" in ballet is not working. There seriously is always and everywhere



7. Ballet School can not be ignored ... the visual appeal of pupils. We are in this one and did not admit it, but I think the unspoken rule of competitive selection - are charming little - in the ballet still exists



8. turnout stop ...



9. Step ...



10. The flexibility, rhythm, musicality ...



11. Leap ...



12. These data look teachers in the selection committee Ballet School. Learning here is not easy, but not easy to do. The competition is a great



13. Education is free, and the formation of the output -classical, I can even say aristocratic. Where else today, students study the history of art?



14. Malik lives in a dormitory, far from her parents 10 years. In Almaty, she has only grandmother. This sacrifice must be worth something. No data is a serious and purposeful girl wants to dance on the world stage.



15. Following the classical prose chemistry



16. They are all very serious and focused, these little ballerinas. But, in fact, still remain children. And at recess as the most ordinary girls, and a handful of gossip



17. The diet of little ballerinas is not as strict as in adults, because they need to grow big and healthy, but also no fat and sweet. We tried - lean, but passable



18. After a few seconds the output Maliki on stage. Contest judges strict jury of the best teachers of Russia, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan



19. Malik performed without corrections having won loud applause and even shouts of "Bravo!»



20. Jury statement Maliki, apparently, too much. The girl reached the final round and finished second



21. But at the student graduating class Asia Dikanbaeva first everything went not so well. It is up to calluses and rubbed the blood stops. The usual story for dancers



22. Will she now run complex pirouette? That's what worried girl, treating their wounds



23. Two hours later senior group performance at the contest "Orleu." In this locker room only Kazakh girls



24. It is a partner of Asia - Baurzhan Boranbaev. He, too, is busy processing "combat" injuries. We noticed that the scene is all the ballet dancers and dancers walk in the shoes very similar to UGG boots



25. Assiya and Baurzhan - the best couple and the hope of the school. At the competition Assiya will perform batch black swan from "Swan Lake».



26. All the rehearsals and waiting the guys were discussing and arguing what they do a pirouette or support



27. Pirouette - painful for the injured foot, and support for a ban teacher, Alexander



28. As a result, even during performances, the first pair of school named after Seleznev improvised and at the end still did support



29. Later Assiya will explain that "very sore feet" and she just could not perform another pirouette



30. But the support did not happen. "He dropped her!" - Lamented professionals. Although dropped, loudly said, well, a small blot: Assiya landed on both feet



31.



32. Bitter tears after the first round. All admonitions girl, sobbing, wailing: I feel ashamed in front of a teacher, he was offended, he does not talk to us! All work down the drain!



33. Oops! Tears were fine, but in vain. This picture was taken three days later, right after the gala concert. We pose the holders of the Grand Prix with his teacher, Alexander Medvedev. In the past, Prime Minister of the Odessa Opera and GATOB, he raised more than one star. Today, one of his student Zhandos Aubakirov a soloist, or as they say artists, prime minister of the presidential theater named Baiseitova, and the other Eric Murzagaliev - Munich Opera!



34. And then there was another surprise. Invited to Charity Ball, the famous Gediminas Tarand, I went to the Ballet School. Grand Master noticed Asia or invited her to Moscow, to his Imperial Russian Ballet. Maybe this is the beginning of our tale of Cinderella?



35. But the tale can not turn, prevents rope Karazhan all his students and especially their parents. Recent always dream of the Grand Opera and the rope drops them on the ground: at the Grand Opera ballerina at least 180 centimeters, try this Refrain! The main role of the Kanata were long gone. Now, the most important party in his life - family.



36. Kanata two sons, and none of them he did not want the fate of a ballet dancer. Junior Assylbek dreams of becoming a footballer, what unspeakably happy father



37. Why did the teacher and the artist dares to their children from the scene? It thankless job, he explains. Rope with colleagues for several years trying to draw public attention to the issue of pension Ballet



38. Dancing on stage to 60-63 years is impossible, but the life force. In his 47, Kanat still performs in the Theatre of Opera and Ballet named after Abay, albeit on the sidelines



39. Kanat give sparing, the role of age. Today, in the play "Giselle" he plays the Duke, father to Bathilde. But not everyone is so lucky, the former ballet dancers can now be found in the nightclub dancers, and construction crew on the installation of plastic windows



40. We asked young artists how long they expect to serve. I think another 6-7 years, and everything will start to hurt, admitted 26-year-old Amir Zheksenbek. What will then? "I do not know" - the young man shrugged.



41. - Thank God I do not have to run and jump, - said Kanat.



Duke - a middle-aged man and a solid, jump and run it with no legs

42. In the title role, trusting and miserable Giselle, now brilliant Saul Rahmedova



43. Saul returned home after a long absence - ten years she was the soloist in the ballet company of New Jersey



44. illustrious Duke perplexed: his daughter's fiance, frivolous Count Albert, dressed for some reason, in peasant dress, seduced village simpleton Giselle



45. Saul Rahmedova brought home a solid international experience and love of contemporary dance. Largely due to its influence, GATOB stopped shunning modern and has entered into its academic repertoire of modern supply



46. ​​Rahmedova, by the standards of the ballet, too, is not young - it's hard to believe, but her 42 years. She dances with pleasure and wants to go on stage as much as he can.



 - But many colleagues are forced to do it and then everything, even to me, you need a sense of security - said prima

47. Gisele Saul Rahmedovoy even dead continues to love Albert. She saves him from the vindictive death dance of the ghosts of the dead brides



48.



49. "Dance till you drop" - The popular expression becomes comically literal meaning from the ballet. Kanat will also dance till you drop. After all, he had a family



50. Kulchara Kasenova treating ballet dancers all her professional life. She remembers Kanat another disciple Ballet School. The doctor worried about his players: 20 years on the ballet stage - the ultimate resource for the human body



51. hernia, sciatica, arthritis, foot pathology - so that's the ugly side hidden behind the scenes of the ballet



52. However, the viewer need a holiday, a country -prestizh classical art. And be sure to continue to play tomorrow
