They were very lucky to have an artist of Kolpakova's calibre to coach them. She was one of the greatest ballerinas in the history of the Kirov, and basically the last great dancer taught by Vaganova.
Sarah Lane is such a GREAT ARTIST ! Huge loss for ABT..... 💕💕 And Daniil has accomplished very well the difficult task of evolving from Wunderkind into the fully mature dancer he is today. 🥰
Very beautiful. I thought in the travelling arabesques, he lifted her slightly left as though he was taking her from the air, before the horizontal lift. very nice!
I saw them perform this, it was a gorgeous. Lane was let go from the company with no announcement. She is guest performing with Houston Ballet this season. I wish I could see her.
