she is an amazing dancer, and she does abeautiful job when she is 61 years old too, I danced for many years when I was young and yes it is very difficult to make it look so graceful and simple. We used to wrap our toes in lambs whool before putting on our toe shoes, even then we got blisters. I haven't heard this songfor many years. Recently while playing my piano I ran accross it but under another name. As soon as I played it I knew I had heard it before. In those young years while dancing!!!
Uprated, favorited, shared, need a hankie! This clip could be a good speed dating tool. Anyone who is not moved by this doesn't like nature, the arts, may not care for sentiment. Good to spot these things quickly. Thanks to AmadCatal1 for sharing this with me! Greetings from France via the USA.
Absolutely beautiful. This is a ballerina who didn't rely on unreasonable and unnecessary extensions, and who maintained a healthy but extremely elegant body weight (I'm not implying anything about anyone, just making an observation) The emotion portrayed here is beautiful and heartbreaking. She is the best!
please please please, can someone translate in english her intro speech? It would be really really helpful! thanks!

music by Saint-Saëns??? This is Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.
Indeed, this ballet by Tchaikovsky is so well known and famous, it is almost embarrassing to see Saint-Saëns' name here.

@MsVegalight It starts out with music from Swan Lake, but she is dancing to Saint-Saens Le Cygne.

This was the time when ballerinas were showing emotions during dancing.

I wish I could speak Russian! Why is Swan Lake's main theme playing instead of the Dying Swan in the beginning? Either good video!

I've seen a few interpretations of the dying swan but this is still my favorite.

I was so fortunate as a very young dancer to see her perform..she was one of--if not THE--greatest ballerina's of the last century!
