how old is legris here?

anyone know?

alina is probably the best giselle ever,what makes her so enchanting to watch is her natural ability to act.she really nails this role

@urranuss

This performance was in the summer of 2006, which means that Legris was 41 years old at the time. (He was born in Oct. 10, 1964)

thx a bunch for posting this. I like them both. Alina is such a lovely Giselle, and Manuel, though much older than Alina, remains in perfect shape with youth liveliness.

Thank you so much for sharing, Legris and Cojocaru are perfect couple, they complement one another perfectly. At first glance it's clear this is extraordinary interpretation, really unique.
