Who is the choreographer? Malakhov? This version is beautiful.

[TheBunduBallerina]

@tfg200808 The choreographer of this version is John Cranko. John Cranko was originally from South Africa, but went to Stuttgart where he created ballets, notably Romeo and Juliet and Eugene Onegin. The John Cranko School of Ballet in Stuttgart was named after him. Thanks for the comment! I hope you enjoy my future uploads. :-)

Friedemann Vogel and Evan Mckie are my favorite dancers in Stuttgart. John Cranko version of this piece is also my favorite.

@GymnasticDancer i'm not sure, I think I might have read it in a review of one of them, but I could be wrong. Dating or not they are both wonderful dancers and dance beautifully together!

@9415908 Where did you hear that they were dating? That would be sweet if they were, they are both amazing dancers... and seem to be nice people too.

[drenaish]
