Aducerea „Lec]iei“ la Bucure[ti, o ambi]ie pentru Alina Cojocaru / Bringing ‘‘The Lesson“ to Bucharest was an ambition for Alina Cojocaru<br />
AI DECLARAT C| DE BALETUL „GISELLE“ TE SIM}I CEL MAI<br />
APROPIAT|, C| ATUNCI CÂND NU-L DANSEZI ÎI SIM}I LIPSA. DE<br />
CE ESTE „GISELLE“ ATÂT DE SPECIAL PENTRU TINE<br />
A fost primul spectacol dansat la Covent Garden [i primul dansat cu<br />
Johan (n.r. - Kobborg). E un rol care are totul. ~n prima parte, ai un dans, `n<br />
a doua - un alt dans. ~n prima parte, personajul e trup [i suflet, `n partea a<br />
doua - Giselle moare - e doar suflet. Mi-e foarte u[or s\ m\ reg\sesc `n acest<br />
registru. Ca persoan\ te compor]i `ntr-un fel anume, dar ca suflet, ca duh<br />
Nimeni nu [tie cum se exprim\ un duh. Aici intervine libertatea<br />
interpret\rii, libertatea de a te exprima a[a cum sim]i. Poate de aceea, ori de<br />
c‚te ori `l dansez, nu m\ plictisesc [i g\sesc noi nuna]e `n acest rol.<br />
VINE LUMEA LA BALET C|L|TORE{TI ÎN TOAT| LUMEA...<br />
Da, vine. ~n fiecare ]ar\ `ns\ aceast\ profesie e v\zut\ cu al]i ochi. ~n<br />
Rusia mergi pe strad\ [i dac\ e[ti recunoscut ca fiind balerin e[ti privit cu<br />
simpatie, lumea `]i z‚mbe[te. ~n alte ]\ri `ns\ spui c\ e[ti balerin [i e[ti privit<br />
ciudat.<br />
DAR PUBLICUL E DIFERIT DE CEL DIN ROMÂNIA ®<br />
BALLERINAS...<br />
I am (she laughs) and try not to<br />
be. I began to believe very much in<br />
Yoga, in body control, in those exercises<br />
you make lying down and<br />
developing muscles. I had some<br />
troubles with my legs a while ago. I<br />
had to learn to develop my techique<br />
without having to repeat too much<br />
some exercises that were doing me<br />
harm. In the same time I learned to<br />
have more force, which helped me a<br />
lot. For two years now I had no troubles<br />
with my legs and I can dance<br />
without pain. You dance better and<br />
better when you know you have the<br />
liberty to risk, without feeling any<br />
pain. It was a great discovery for me<br />
(Yoga, n. red.). Unfortunately, it<br />
takes time. We add two more hours<br />
at the usual programm.<br />
YOU SAID THAT YOU FEEL<br />
CLOSER TO ‘‘GISELLE”, THAT<br />
WHEN YOU’RE NOT DANCING IT,<br />
YOU MISS IT. WHY IS ‘‘GISELLE”<br />
SO SPECIAL FOR YOU<br />
It was the first show danced at<br />
Covent Garden and the first danced<br />
with Johann (Kobborg, n. red.). It’s a<br />
part that has everyting. In the first<br />
half you have a dance, in the second<br />
another one. In the first half the<br />
characer is body and soul, in the second<br />
- Giselle dies - only the soul. It’s<br />
very easy for me to found myself in<br />
this structure. As a person you<br />
behave in a certain way, but as a ®
