Sleeping Beauty Kirov/MT 1/4 - Aurora entrance 1960-2010s - Sizova, Kolpakova, Lezhnina, Vish... 

She is extraordinary. They called her "Flying Sizova." Watch some of her videos - Corsaire, for one, and you will be awed.

Also her musicality 🤩

I, too, grew up with that version and could never remove the picture of that entrance out of my memory. It remains perfect even through all these years. I'm very happy to find you, Ephesian Rose and also Tab Bo, to share these feelings and memories with.

YES!

yes to joyous musicality sad for cold, copied choreography :-(

Somova has most charm of the new generation!

well imo anyway she was far better than disgraceful skorik

I know you are a Somova fan and Skorik hater. I don't want to get into an argument with you. Please don't reply.

With all due respect, if you don't want "Somova's fans" to reply to you, why do you comment in the first place? :/

+alecsia96 Nothing against decent Somova fans, everything against Somova fans *foaming at the mouth*. Please read carefully before replying, thank you. I don't want to get into an argument with pediatrapaola not so much because he's a Somova fan, but because he's a notorious Skorik hater who can't behave. He's not after Somova praise, he's after Skorik bashing (again, read his reply here and all the others in the long thread). If you're a decent person, Somova fan or not, my "restriction" doesn't apply to you. And anyway it's up to the channel owner to delete offensive comments.

ballet janie l am not in particoular a somova fan btw

+Navarre Brixen As a young (25) dancer your comment strikes me very deeply. I find it very, very interesting... Would love to hear more.

Evgeniya Obraztsova

and quite an incomplete collection without the most sublime Mez, the most exciting Terekhova and The triple pirouettes Tereshkina.

Navarre Brixen yes she did ,i remember l saw in some videos time ago from rbv or mokhina or other SPB uploaders

Navarre Brixen many top dancers added some of her specialities in classic stagings ,males and females ,imo is accettable ,and vika is a true gem whose light has the power to enlight mariinsky stage also in these dark days where a lot of garbage has star status and talentated people is buried in low ranks or had to go somewhere else to find an honorable position ,young radiant yulia stepanova for first

Navarre Brixen vika is a star .she has class ,beauty and technique to share ,she is world size star ,this apart if adding some personal touch in stagings can be considered right or not ,she is a true star .

+Navarre Brixen have you ever even considered the fact that a dancer doesn't train herself alone for a performance? What about Tereshkina's teacher told her to make 3 pirouettes? Or maybe Zakharova's coach told her not to hesitate on raising those legs? Or maybe Novikova's coach told her to make an oversplit in the grand jette? Why? Because. Go ask them. Seriously, take no offense, but you really nitpick on the dancers themselves when in fact they don't own their show. They do as they're told in rehearsals. "Sell technique" is really ironical, since nowadays people pay to see technical prowesses. Pirouettes, leaps and extensions. Does it add anything to the storytelling? Maybe yes, maybe not. Each person will have his/her own take on the character. Or what, you think you're the only experienced dancer or teacher who knows that adding this or that to the choreography is incorrect? Maybe you should consider giving Mariinsky, Bolshoi and POB lectures on how we rehearse world class dancers for Sleeping Beauty. Lol
