No, it's not :P I thought so too for a long time.. But then I peeked at the cover of the DVD and the II act is danced by Vyacheslav Gordeyev. The first act is truly Vasiliev.
@Buondelmonte123 yes was this,remember was on tv on direct ,and in second act the cast changed.gordeyev also was very good ,not like volodia or lavrovsky,but not so far,was great period for bolchoi,so many male dancers of great level all togheter,today apart promising strong ivan vasiliev there are no longer exiting dancers in bolchoi.not that kind .

@pediatrapaola No, it wasn't Maximova who was injured, it was Volodia who had a bad case of influenza.

@pediatrapaola Again, I agree with you, that generation of the Bolshoi had real stars,
with real charisma, both men & women. Only Osipova and Ivan Vasiliev can compare with that generation.
