Waltz of the Flowers Breakdown: Ballet's Most Iconic Corps Work | Balanchine NYCB

What makes Waltz of the Flowers THE most iconic corps piece in ballet? As a former NYCB dancer, I'm breaking down every element of Balanchine's masterpiece - from the dazzling Dewdrop solo (featuring the legendary Ashley Bouder!) to the breathtaking corps work that makes this the grand finale of Nutcracker's Act 2. ๐ŸŒธ WATCH THE FULL WALTZ OF THE FLOWERS: ย ย ย โ€ขย Georgeย Balanchineยดsย Theย Nutcrackerย -ย Waltz...ย ย  ๐Ÿ“บ Full Nutcracker Deconstructed Playlist: https://www.youtube.com ๐ŸŽฌ ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“๐ŸŽ+ ๐‚๐ฅ๐š๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐Ž๐ง-๐ƒ๐ž๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐: https://www.kmandfriends.com/ondemand ๐Ÿ›๏ธ ๐’๐ก๐จ๐ฉ ๐Œ๐ฒ ๐‘๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tutugirlkem ๐Ÿฉฐ ๐Œ๐ฒ ๐‚๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ โ†’ Absolute Beginner?
