nice but kirov pas de trois is more better

[sophinette75]

If you base your judgement upon the recording made in the 90's (a DVD entitled "Kirov Classics" with the Paquita Grand Pas), I absolutely agree with you concerning the girls (Pankova and Sitnikova). As for the boys (Thibault here, Chicherin for the Kirov), I would say more or less same level, very high in a word, with a personal preference for Thibault who is an incredibly refined dancer, payaing attention to all details.

Emmanuel's ballon in this video is extraordinary as always, but what really shines here is his glowing command of the stage. He really deserves to be promoted, as he is in my opinion, one of the best examples of the French school dancing at the Opera today.

Magnifique Emmanuel Thibault ! C'est un délice de le voir danser. Quand donc cette idiote de Brigite Lefèvre va-t-elle le nommer étoile ?

magnífico Thibault en esta pieza, desde luego me parece mejor que Paquette, su agilidad, potencia y técnica son buenísimas, recuerdan a las de los mejores bailarines rusos

i will dance this

[ai51inn]

Emmanuel Thibault is oh so beautiful dancing this pas de trois - took my breath away when I first watched it. I can see Nureyev musicality. Love this version of Paquita. Thanks for posting

As always Lacotte's redo is vastly inferior to the original, and when no original exists (Sylphide, Pharoah's daughter) either boringly lacking in line (as here) or just plain ridiculous (men jumping up and donw on invisible pogo sticks).

Emmanuel Thibault est splendide !

[AJ0loves0ballet]

@fairyboy3 3 i think that it is all a matter of opinion, in this variation the boy does more technical things that require a lot more strength rather than the Kirov variation

[toietmoi49]

MAGNIFIQUE ! =O

[bolshoiboy8]

@sophinette75 My personal opinion is the French are better. They are more clean, although it appears the Russians are more overtly passionate. They both have great technique, but i feel the Russians aren't as clean. Lately, they arent what they used to be.

Peut-on m'expliquer porquoi Thibaut n'a jamais été nommé danseur Etoile....Paquette a été un trés bon Premier Danseur mais ce n'est pas une Etoile et pourtant il a été nommé il y a 5mois(?!?!?)...Les mystères de la Direction de l'Opera sont impénétrables.
