wonderful phrasing -- the back-bend goes over and over and hten hte arm CONTINUES goig back, filling out hte phrase beyond full, and then the fouette is instantaneous and she's facing us -- and at the END of htat phrase, how she lets the leg float down from arabesque with no hurry, . When she DOES move fast, it's like a cat, and she's suddenly there -- but never is she rushed.
