[jeslynsng]

How old is this huy? cause he look pretty young to me._.

[louiseduvee]

Oh, how beautifully they dance together!

[butifarra61]

dani,....do not listen to all the comments here! You are on stage and they are not....at your young age you have been with most well know ballet companies they have not. Also baryshnikov was short, nuryrev and nijinsky were sort of femenine....the ballet world is open to all as long as you can dance and are willing to take all the pain that comes with it. So just keep dancing and banking the money since in five or ten years it will be over. Either your mind or body will get sick of it all.

[sylphida]

excellent

[hatimanchan]

The competition for the technic at a high level gives birth to high harmony. Daniil Simkin and Maki Hamanaka are wonderful.

guillaume555....what an absolutely stupid comment. I am sure Daniil is more man than you have ever been or will ever be. HIs dancing speaks for itself. He is the greatest male dancer in the world today and I am sure you are not the best at anything other than, perhaps, making snide and stupid comments.

[Pommey82]

@parzifal40 as if you can be so hypocritical.... you say somone makes a stupid comment, then call DANIIL the best male dancer of today???? I can see however that Daniil seems slightly immasculine, which is unforunately due to his small stature. but if ure willing to say that daniil is the best male dancer, id be questioning as to what ure idea of ballet is.

Since Solor is a character torn between two women, not a warrior who always knew exactly what he wanted, Daniil's boyish thin physique suits the character perfectly.

His jumps are breathtaking and I love his performance!!!

[Juliet0307]

I don't think that Daniil is not mature enough to dance this role.He will never have the physic of Nikolai Tsiskaridze!But his physic suits to his wonderful style,and to his own personality!He is a very great artist,a very musical dancer,a very rare quality!Daniil is a visionary,a fresco painter,he flies when he dances!And Miki Hamanaka is a very good partner for him.Wonderful!

[MrNocco]

i think he fits the role kinda good, its one version of solor, where ivan vasiliev is another version

he fits the role of a spoiled prince quite well :P

where vasiliev fits the warrior prince :P

[pediatrapaola]

@MrNocco agree but prefear ivan ,may be daniil is more clean and elegant too but ivan.....

[XxPhantomedusxX]

He's not a man/hero/commanding presence. Perhaps one day.

[XxXDaveADXxX]

TRACY MOUNZER ISS WAAAAAAAAAY BETTER THAN EMMM !

[jgh37]

twat

[guillaume555]

he looks like a 15 yo kid... this role needs to be danced by a real man

[SailorAlexial]

He does look young but he holds his own! Imagine if he is thiss expressive now, how he will look when he is older!

[pediatrapaola]

agree he needs a more commanding presence,off course is good,very good ,but...

[likeafirstday]

@guillaume555

I think you are right but he is small dancer not so tall and he is thin also not big ..ıf he will do this role maybe after 5-6 years wıll be same ...or can be better .but absoluty he is gorgeous dancer ..just maybe solor not for him ..

[spud87]

Daniil's solos are always an absolute joy to watch

[MrFatality]

he is so little compared to the other men xD

[Bhoeble]

@MrFatality So was Napoleon, and it didn't stop him being good at what he did either.

[swar0102]

Just beautiful...

[Dale1147]

Absolutely BREATHTAKING!!!!

[VictorAmaru]

como solor a nadie!!! cuak!!

pero una tecnica de lujo

[BowseR999999999]

dances like a girl!!!!!

[mysticmeg111]

Might have known you are a little wanker from the UK. Daniil is light and lyrical with superb plieed musculature and quite able to hold his ballerina with one hand way above his head.

Why not upload a video of yourself doing some ballet movements ??

[hope1938]

Good technic kind of.... Bad interpretation........

[JacquelyneWilkerson]

Fabulous dancing - just fabulous!

[Yuy87]

Woooooooow, Daniil !!!!!!!!!!

[muetterchenmusica]

Oh yes, Daniil was born to dance! Er tanzt wie ein Elf, mehr Gefühl geht nicht.

[hangamejairo51]
