She's a lovely performer, it just interests me to imagine how she would have scored in a competition like Youth America Grand Prix-very high artistic score no doubt But technically, times have changed.
-
They're both so sweet...in terms of techniquei like her much better than Plisetskaya
-
Nureyev jump to the last pose makes me smile everytime!!! Its so... unexpected!
-
@hellokittyjfh heh, and you obviously know nothing about good ballet dancing and artistry. If you want to see people scratching their ears with their feet go watch a contortionist.

its just the perfect contrast. The natural unaffected style of Fonteyn matched to the animal energy and strength of Nureyev. Breathtaking!!
-
I would give the world to see Nureyev perform this live right now.. Margot is wonderful and oh so elegant here, but I still love the Alla Sizova performance of this part way more, even though Sizova was just a student when dancing this with Nureyev. The extensions of her lines are unbelievable!!!

I saw them in Detroit. They did Les Sylphides, Midsummer Night's Dream and Paradise Lost. They were originally only supposed to do Paradise Lost. It was a magical evening made more so when as exhausted as they were they took time with everyone that came backstage to see them. Very patient and polite although I am sure they both wanted to be off their feet. I will never forget that.

@emmsteemmastewart yes rudy performed the solo that legendary dancer vakhtang chabukiani created for himself in order to show off his virtuosity in early 30's but the solo and coda for dame margot were little semplified being she no longer so young

remember Margot Fonteyn was in her 40s when she was dancing this ballet. And I think she performed lovely.Stop to think Rudolf Nureyev the greatest dancer of the twentieth century Partnered with her for seventeen Years. When he defected from the soviet union one of his greatest wishes was to partner with her,
and would have continue to dance with her He only dances with the best. And to me she was the best.
