Spring Waters Bolshoi Ballet 1956 

Восторг от тех лет, это действительно танец, а не гимнастика!!!!

might be the coolest lift ive seen in any ballet video ever

stunning partnering in old good times style

That developpé into a grand ronde de jambe where he partners her with one hand while kneeling on one knee is so, so hard even if it doesn't look it. They are both excellent dancers but he's a really gifted partner. Such panache. Bravi!

Великолепно!!!

I felt so blessed watching this 😍

Unforgetable, those dancers, for ever remembered.

Excellent

beautiful

high drama!

Forever our Soviet art.
