Adeline PASTOR's video: Adeline Pastor in Carmen

Adeline PASTOR in the role of "CARMEN". This "Best of" was filmed during severals Performances of "Carmen" between 12 and 24 February 2011. Must attest to Adeline Pastor an almost superhuman power. Grandiose her Pirouettes, her jumps, her endless stretch- and flexibility , and her perfect flirt with the classic images of Carmen-character with unexpected movements and figures. She moves in a flash , almost weightless and always perfectly in line with the Bizet's Carmen sounds , without anyone ever has the impression that only an opera piece is danced. There's more, there is the buzz of her lascivious femininity, the aggressive fire of that femme fatal and in the Grand Pas de Deux, she flows there almost as the mythological Eros. Wow! What a dancer , What a great Art of dancing and what a noble esthetics movements.
