Jurgita Dronina - aurora, Sleeping Beauty (premiere) Het National Ballet

[ReinoutEeckhout]

@vaganovafan Thank you for the name op the movement! Indeed she reminds me of Sofiane Sylve too. I never saw Viviane Durante, for I have been a balletomane for just a few years, unfortunately...

I had never heard of her until I came across this video and she has to be one of the best!

She is 1 of my favourite dancers.

Beautiful...one of the best Auroras I've seen. Does anyone know if this is coming out on dvd?

@21bluethunder This version is recorded in 2003 with Sofiane Sylve in the role of Aurora

[actor001]

Pure classical style , a successful debut in the role and with the production

Stunning!!!

[ReinoutEeckhout]

You are the most beautiful Aurora I have ever seen! Just one example at 05: 02, I do not know how you call this movement, but somehow it seems that the movement of the arms develops out of the movement of the legs. None of the other dancers did this so beautifully! I was so fortunate to see you and Cédric four times! Pure joy!

@ReinoutEeckhout you are so right!I never saw her dancing before,so smooth ,gracefull,strong legs,beautifull face,nice curved arches,her style looks simular with sofiane sylve,also one of my favourite dancers.So,I note her with my other favourite dancers like osipova,vishneva,stepanova,obr­atzova etc.. :))...the balletterm of the movement at 05:02 calls 'enveloppé ' she is a true aurore ,but I also liked viviane durante in that role,her hairdo and tiara is amazing beautifull!
