Baryshnikov wasn't simply the greatest male ballet dancer of his time, he was also the most unique dance artist: a ballet dancer who, despite his strict Russian training, was able to absorb and translate the styles and idiosyncrasies of the vast number of choreographers he worked with. No other dancer has been able to do it with the same level of perfection since. Барышников не просто величайший танцор балета своего времени. Он ущё и уникальный танцор, который, несмотря на строгий классический стиль тренировок, смог впитать и передать стили многих других хореографов, с которыми он впоследствии работал. Никакой другой танцор не смог это сделать на таком высоком уровне совершенства, как это сделал Барышников.
So happy he was courageous enough to "defect" to come to the West. He was a brilliant dancer and his dedication to his art enriched our cultural life immensely. Brava Mischa.
I have NO idea about ballet...I only knew I was made to take it because I was pigeon toed...lolol...but the first time I saw Misha dance many years later...I knew I had never seen so much pure beauty in dance...I never stuck with ballet, but there is something about the way Mikhail moves....confident, perfection, secure, sure, and sensual...
Dont matter that you THINK you know nothing about ballet you dont have to. He was and still is the greatest, sexy most versatile ballet dancer ever. A wonderful dancer in all roles, he had perfect timing enabling him to perform light hearted roles with ease and had great facial expressions. Watch him in Vestre to see his wonderful versatility,
Your words are worth gold and I consider myself a playful with words articulate of the movement of body in dance However , I am so Impressed with your summary of the sexy blue eyed , a charm only matched by the younger ELVIS , his use of the music was articulated beautifully recently on my FB page , I see many words written about my idol , I was an aspiring gifted 14 yo ballet dancer , my mum sitting next to me , his first trip to Melbourne Australia , Don Q. .,. I whispered in her ear …. Someday mum , I . I will BE HIS PARTNER . In love with his love and execution of a genre I too have a love affair with , but special , stand out, that charisma , upper body and flick of the head ……… Misha , you had me at your first Set of pirouettes but then , you did your jetes in circle …. I thought , greatness and good looking You have a truly exceptional gift to articulate your thoughts , accolades your way 👏✔️⭐️
Да, удивительная судьба, фантастический талант и работоспособность. Жаль, что не возможно было, разделить счастье с Родиной. Музыка из песни Синатры, удивительно созвучна с жизнью и судьбой Михаила.
Impressionante!! É um fenômeno na dança!! Que pessoa imensa, intensa, grandiosa, sensível, talentosa, guerreira!! Obrigada por tanta dedicação, e amor por esta profissão!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖
Sencillamente espectacular, lo descubrí siendo una niña y me quede impactada, hace lo mas difícil que parezca fácil, genial! Para mi el mejor bailarin de todos los tiempos, lo amo ❤️😘😘
Espectacular.El hermoso y varonil.Actuó en una película que trata de su huida de Rusia cuando salio a una presentación en EE.UU. y no volvió a su país.
Calidad exportacion. Eso lo educa Rusia para su orgullo. Mas cultura alla digan lo que digan. Uno fuera de serie. Hermoso. Veo con frecuencia un canal youtube cultural ruso y es todo una belleza. Gracias.
I used to enjoy watching everything he does when I was dancing at SHDC in Los Angeles 💚💚💚💚I love you from bottom of my heart thank you for your beautiful energy thank you 🙏🏼
И кто его коротконогим называет??? Он не высокого роста , но и не маленький . И у него прекрасные , безупречные пропорции тела. Настоящий мужчина с таким крепким стержнем и упорством в достижении своих целей и в реализации своего таланта. Насточщий Мастер. Респект.
Baryshnikov was once asked who in his opinion would be the greatest dancer of all time, he then replied: Charles Chaplin. If I were to follow the same reasoning, I would say: Charles Claplin and Michail Baryshnikov.
Ведь него данные не великие ,,,Но какая образная пластика ...и єто настяший МУЖКОЙ ТАНЕЦ,,такая ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНАЯ ВАГАНОВСКАЯ МЕТОДИКА И НИКОГДА НЕ УСТАРЕЕТ,,, А сейчас в балет проникла гимнастика ,,а где стиль ???
-Пусть я -аид, а он всего лишь -гой, и профиль у него совсем другой. И все же я не сделаю рукой того, что может сделать он ногой.!" (Иосиф Бродский с такой надписью подарил свои стихи -другу Михаилу Барышникову, имея ввиду Александра Годунова.
Is better for him to keep going wiith his Latvian restaurant . Additionally as a business man that he is , it will be nice to open a gymnast center because he is not a dancer but a gymnast. And why this pathetic emotional music?? To sympathize??? Or to admire him??? Ha ha ha.
