[ilyaballet]

@ilyaballet not a very smart comment - my comment. As a kid I was always amazed by his art.. Baryshnikov and Schaufuss - they are n.1 when I was a student!

I saw him many times in london about 79 at his best he was not less good than micha

ahhh, I'm dizzy, why can't the camera guy EVER keep the camera still? I want to see the dancing. Sometimes I think that someone who doesn't know much about the camera would make a better video than a professional who wants to put his "personal touch" into it...

Peter Schaufuss is my favorite dancer of all time!

[TheBorzoilover]

He is good.but Misha is in a class of his own.

[jngwatson]

Awesome

@ilyaballet what do you mean? Don't you like his pirouettes? I think he got amazing pirouettes, and very good jumps :) He was my teacher for a while actually :)

@rosandtwo It's not quite as complicated as that. For all the jumps in the manege except the last, it begins as if you're going into a coupe jete, pushing off the left leg, right leg 4th front, then a opening to arabesque before landing on the right. The last jump is as if you were going for a saut de basque in a manege, which is essentially what it is. Push off on right leg, except he again opens into arabesque to land, landing on the left leg. The last jump you see a lot, the other,not so much

@JeremyNasmith I realise that this comment comes 10 months after your's, however are you sure that he is doing grand jete en tournant? If you stop/start the film, he appears to take off and land on his left leg - which would be a fouette battu. This is merely a technical question, for to perform either step with clarity is a rare achievement.

@balletprince87 ho visto che sei italiano/a ho visto peter al suo meglio nel 1979 /83 a londra e qui in italia,faceva tutto quello che faceva micha,e girava di piu'purtroppo non essendo un transfuga russo e'stato troppo presto dimenticato.una sola parola FANTASTICO.

[RaruphoElfei]

the video contrast doesn't help to see the movements very well.

@pediatrapaola as incredible as his dancing is in this video, it must be difficult to watch a live performance of him and remember to breath at the same time! The phrase "born to dance" comes to mind.
