Xiomara Reyes & Rolando Sarabia dancing Don Quixote Pas de Deux at 15th Anniversary of Miami International Ballet Festival, September 2010, Cuban Classical Ballet
Yes indeed. Much as I loathe Reyes' cutesy-poo, creampuff, one-HALF-dimensional dancing, it's absurd to have cut both her variation and her coda steps (whatever they may be,.. ) I'm sure Sarabita's virility and dazzle can stand up to their inclusion......LOL
Wannabe-Basilios of the world - watch the sheer machismo and virtuosity of Sarabia and *WEEP*! The speed and control of those pirouettes - just amazing!!
Lovely dancing but the orchestra should be kept behind AFTER the performance so that they can practice. Just ghastly played. I don't know how Rolando and Xiomara could even follow this horrible playing. I too hope that Rolando joins the ABT. They need a new male dancer of this caliber.

How sad that Sarabita didn't join ABT just as soon as he left the Cuban Ballet. He has been missing a good really home company ever since, with a similar repertoire as the one he had and the necessity of a homogeneous daily class. With all his back and forth between companies and now hanging up on the air I'm surprised that he's still able to maintain such a quality level of performance...way superior as many stablished Principal Dancers in some of the most important companies worldwide.

Why is there some guy whistling and singing along with the orchestra? Is the whistler/singer the videographer?
