Did anyone else notice the ballerina doing fouettes in the second half of the vid? Kind of fun to see the iconic coda moves being done simultaneously! I had this weird perceptual shift with Sarafanov where I started to think he was animated rather than a real person. Amazing!
Сарафанов!!!! Супертехничный, высокопрофессиональный танцор- всегда приятно на него смотреть и в очередной раз восхищаться его талантом !!! А натура Зеленского , даже в его позе " смотрящего", невооружённым глазом видна
Even if Sarafanov did 11 double tours, he just stopped, Batalov is older, did 7 double tours en l'air, he continued with the music doing 5 tours en dehors and then again 3 double tours en l'air to end with the music. He won imo.
Does anyone know why, like with Batalov at the end, the passé leg is never turned out during the passé tour en l'air? I've watched slow motion for pretty much every top dancer, and it is always near parallel. Is this on purpose, or is turnout there simply unrealistically difficult? When I try myself, I find it is necessary to keep parallel; otherwise the body tilts excessively.
This is not always the case, but it often ends up being that way because at such great speed the visual difference between a turned out passé and a parallel passé is very slight, and it's more stable to go to a parallel position.
he was a magnificent dancer l saw live also here in italy in a couple of occasions with lopatkina and makhalina ,all them embodyed the essence of mariinsky
@@kabardinka1 Udmurts are Russian (in the "part of Russia" sense, we have 2 different words for Russian", didn't know about Sarafanov 👍 if someone speaks Russian we think of these people as ours by spirit anyway :)
Ciao, i know Igor was superb as a dancer (still is) altough he is around 44 i guess. But he wasn't the kind of dancer with multiple double tours in a row. Nor fast pirouettes. But he had 5-6 very slow, beautifully and clean pirouettes. Therefore he is not playing in this. LOL
