I think thaht the last ballerina in the recostruction of Mariinsky's Sleeping Beauty , could be Nadezhda Gonchar! ^^

@rudik1988 Thank you

I agree, the Mariinsky reconstruction is the best version of The Sleeping Beauty. My favourite Candide is also the 4th.

@TheBunduBallerina the Royal Ballet dancer is Isabel McMeekan. Btw, do you have the adagio and coda of the fairies from the reconstruction?

[TheBunduBallerina]

@theamazingsoter Thank you for your comments! I do have the coda. Thanks for the suggestion - I'll upload it when I have time.

Ballet has changed so much! And althought its more delicate today I still love the tradicional ballet of bolshoi, it`s just a diferent type of beauty

My favourite Candide is the second one.

Hi BunduBallerina... I'd like to know where you found the recordings of the rebuilt Kirov's "La Belle au bois dormant" ... is a version that I like so much! *.* You have the full record?

[BaletAll]

The Tender Fairy from Bolshoi Ballet 1989 is Elvira Drozdova.

I prefer Kirov version, Bolchoi is not enough sweet  especially in her arms
