Im reading the comment section and there are so many social snobs complaining about the audience lmao this was the Grand Prix gala it’s a bunch of young ballet nerds. Let the future thrive! all those kids were so excited getting to see their idols. Great job to the both of them for putting this together so fast
Ivan Vasiliev is the Greatest Dancer of Our Time. He is a miracle. He floats, impossibly, at the apex of every jump; and for that brief millesecond, he opens and dwells within the Impossible Dimension.
What a GREAT video. The amazing prowess of the dancers and the enthusiastic audience. I was caught between laughing at the audiences' antics (endearing) and picking my jaw up off the floor.
She is fantastic. A special touch of love and understanding of dance, music, and her fance watching in the theatre. Bravo, dancing goddess of beautiful Cuba.
когда Иван танцевал С Наташей - он был как Бог танца , это Вестрис, оживший и воплотившийся. А позже, с другой , Марией - это земной, довольно плотный, страстный , но не утонченный .Это совсем другой человек. Как странно это видеть.
@diegoleivadanza I agree. Only those who have never danced would make such remarks. They are just like Nureyev, Barishnikov, Bujones or Cinthia Gregory were. And no one has to wonder why ballet is as popular as football in Russia...
Claire StarCoyote of course Osipova and Vasiliev have been dancing together since teenager years , that comparison is kind of obvious .. you can’t make chemistry overnight
the problem was that Ivan Knew she was coming for the balances, and if he let her to do the choreography she regularly dances with three consecutive long standing balances it would not have place for him during the short adagio to shine (because she can eat the audiences up just staying musically during each of those three) thats why he jumped brilliantly prior the balance and the audience went down... she just took advantage of the only balance she had to show off even getting out of music
Luis Vizcaino tienes toda la razón. Y por eso el resultado general del pdd es más bien pobre. Contradictoriamente, ambos brillaron y el resultado fue pobre. El ballet no es una competencia entre gimnastas.
El problema....es que para él fue un trabajo muy difícil porque no sabía que iba a hacer ella y por su agresividad bailando......según él mismo fue una muy mala experiencia bailar con ella.
Wilfredo A. Ramos tuvieron poco tiempo , la Osipova es una loca bailando , hace más locuras que viengsay, pero esa si Vasiliev la tolera , yo tuve la dicha una noche de caminar con los dos 2 cuadras conversando mientras Osipova se fumaba dos cigarros , y la compatibilidad entre ellos desde el punto de vista personal es muy grande y se entienden .. ese montage con Viengsay fue de ahora para ahorita .. bastante bien les quedo
viengsay no debio cambiar la coreografia a la que esta acostumbrada no se lucio con que debia pero como siempre magnifica y hermosa el sorprendente aunque debe crecer mucho como partner y tener cuidado en las terminaciones de los pasos se le ve un poco impreciso y aprender a controlar esa gran fuerza que tiene
Mrs. Valdes possesses the greatness of the mythical ballet Divas, as Pablova, Markova, Alonso. She is possibly the only heir of this almost extinct tradition of Prima Ballerinas, when for the connoisseur this title meant a goddess who danced and through her dance could dominate the multitudes. She has been gifted with this quality we call geniality. Simply unbelievable, a true tour the force. Her art is incomprehensible for the lesser and less educated minds.
@m0d1b2 La genialidad engendra la envidia, quizá a causa de la desazón que muchos experimentan ante lo extraordinario. Me recuerdas unos versos de Cavafis sobre el emperador Juliano ‘ Qué payaso, [has visto] pero no entendiste, porque si hubieras entendido no hubieras condenado’ No entiendes por qué estrellas del Bolshoi como Vasiliev o del Mariinsky como Larafanov la han escogido como su partenaire. Eso tampoco lo podrás entender. Cuánta ignorancia, Dios mío!
Васильев прекрасен, Китри-очень медленная, публика ужасная, особенно на фоне падения пустых бутылок. Печальное зрелище нельзя высокое искусство превращать в балаган.
Какой ужас. В чьей хореографии идёт балет? Васильеву не скучно исполнять эту тягомотину? Американцы должны Барышникову при жизни не один памятник воздвигнуть за то, что он им открыл классический балет вообще. Страшно подумать, что Большой до этого докатится со своими эффективными менеджерами.
@m0d1b2 This is not about you. I speak/read/write fluently Spanish and English and my French is quite good but my personal values lie on others qualities. I never was interested in learning Russian. You can be well read but have a poor esthetical taste. I am capable to judge based on my own criteria. The critic you mentioned has hers but that is not matter to me whatsoever. If your reasons are based on the opinion of somebody else, you just proved what I said; you simply do not understand it.

The public today is very uneducated. He does not know when to applaud. Nor does he know that there are emotions that it is better to express in bed, not in a theater.
NO SENSE OF HUMOR? "CLASSE OUVRIERE" veut dire que la danseuse n'est pas elegante et adapte au niveau de la danse classique mais devrait danser dans une fete rusticale de village.......
@fabiesque Un petit peu plus the substance, s’il vous plais. Depuis quand le ballet est attribut de la classe ouvrière? Votre commentaire est extrêmement injuste, dur et vulgaire.
Vasiliev needs to improve his job as a partenier. To be a rounded dancer you need to be a good partenier, and he is not. The balances of Viengsay are magnificent. The audience ugly. I have seem many other codas from Viengsay better than this one. She is better that what she shows in this performance.
Christine Still again .. is not art meant to be an incentive for our senses , vision , taste , sound , smell .. the audience (which not a regular audience , being mostly composed by future ballet stars , young generations of dancers and students) is living every minute... Let them Be .. don’t steal a moment of pure joy from their life .. Vasiliev and Viengsay danced that way in purpose .. for them no for a critics or a jury
