Margot Fonteyn and Rudolph Nureyev Rehearse Act 2 of ‘Giselle’ (1965)

This is (unfortunately silent) film of Margot Fonteyn and Rudolph Nureyev rehearsing Act 2 of ‘Giselle’.

The legendary two dancers were touring in Australia and it was 1965.

I’ve uploaded footage of this rehearsal session before on the channel as …

‘Margot Fonteyn and Rudolph Nureyev - Rehearsing 'Giselle' in Australia (1965)’

… but the camera was set much further away and you have more detached sense of the event.

Here you are so up close and personal that you almost feel as though you are the third person in a pas de trois!

A very kind person from Berlin alerted me to this film and I am really grateful to him/her.

Enjoy!
