What a gorgeous pairing!! They were perfect together. He lifts her so effortlessly and so smoothly and I've never in my life seen feet move as light and quickly as hers. So amazing to watch. Again thank you for posting your videos:)

@sweetberry07 Yeah, you're right. I've been always wondering how come he, such a really big guy, could be so soft, elegant and lirical, well, when it was needed.

Нет слов, так воздушно! Они прямо порхают над сценой как 2 бабочки...когда я посмотрела первый раз, то невольно вспомнилась сцена из нашего мультфильма про Золушку, где они с принцем под вальс цветов взлетали))

Одна из легенд гласит, что Бессмертнова, будучи в Иране на гастролях, пошла на концерт Молодого балета (под руководством Игоря Моисеева) и увидела там молодого очень яркого танцовщика, его звали Александр Годунов. Ну и предложила супругу его пригласить в Большой.

Oh! Really wonderful! Don't like the  blue mist, but still lovely. Never seen him live in Chopin. Did you?

[magnumSuper]

Heh, nope. That year I guess my parents were busy contemplating a possible marriage. That's what I was told.

Lovely & Dream-like...

AN ASIDE THOUGHT : Ah--hum...Ballet Dancer's must have a certain type of GENETICALLY BLESSED body, supple & very strong. BUT, (and this is especially true for the guys) IT MUST NOT BE THE KIND OF BODY THAT BULKS UP WITH RIGOROUS TRAINING. As you can see he liftseffortlessly, yet his arms are Relatively Slender, his body is Sleek and Lean, EXCEPT FOR THOSE ROCK-HARD LOOKING LEGS! What training he must constantly have gone through to develop such musculature ! Thanks!
