Ivan Vasiliev - The Magnificent Solor

Slow Motion.
Mikhailovsky Theater, Jan 2014.

[@rimwidrataj8188]

Баядерка - это лучший тест на мастерство любого артиста балета. Здесь недостаточно сделать 32 фуэте или тройные кабриолы на высоте полутора метров. Здесь нужно быть технически совершенным танцором и выдающимся актером одновременно. Здесь вы должны вызывать не только восхищение своей техникой, но и эмоции у зрителя. Васильев явно сдал этот экзамен фантастически.

VASILIEV the GREAT!

[@robertaweiss1196]

He takes my breath away - and at 82 that may be dangerous! I have never seen the pure joy of dancing expressed as it is with this dancer. I could watch all day and tomorrow too!

[@marthajane6617]

Когда Иван год учился в Минском хореогр. уч-ще, ему давали ведущие партии в нашем театре и город "ходил" на Ванечку. Браво!, Иван Васильев. Твой талант блистает.

[@elenaahumada9842]

No me canso de ver a este virtuoso de la danza , la perfección de sus movimientos y bailando con Natalia son para mi gusto la pareja perfecta de éste arte de todos los tiempos

[@pediatrapaola]

+elena ahumada de todos los tiempos no but one of the best of this time yes

[@elenaahumada9842]

No voy a polemizar pero dije q' para mi gusto si es el mejor de todos los tiempos y en mis 62 años vaya que he visto ballet y bailarines y él que le sigue los pasos es Sergei ; el gusto la belleza y otras disciplinas son subjetivas y respeto su opinión : Gracias

[@pediatrapaola]

elena ahumada well me too am 62 years old and started watchning ballet in late 60's and in my opinion the greatest couple ever remains vladimir vasiliev and ekaterina maximova as couple and still imo vladimir remains with yuri soloviev the greatest maledancer ever

[@Feliandyx16]

Concuerdo con uste, supieron mantener esa linea de perfeccion rura y la supieron transformar en el balet actual con tecnicas sorprendentes y los dos manteniendose en sus roles. Pero lamentablemente lo bueno tuvo un fin. Siento que no hemos visto todo el potencial de Ivan

[@anneviolet1]

Extrordinary !

[@maritrujillo9166]

MAGNIFICO AMAZING

[@carlosalbertooliveiraville5204]

Lui gagne la graviteé!

[@herrbrucvald6376]

why is this slowed down? could we just see it please? and @ 1:18 why are the Shades' hands/arms in all different positions?

[@fullofdance3732]

You can easily see Ivan in Bayadére in many versions with different partners if you search YTb with keywords "иван васильев баядерка" and "Ivan Vasiliev Bayadére" - the original videos. I think most of the scenes here were taken from his 2013 performance with Irina Perren and Anna Ol (Анна Оль) in 2014. THIS video was made in a whim, just to fully enjoy the power and gracefulness of his Solor. About the Shades? Ask the artistic director!

[@gogitatatulashvili5767]

შენ გენაცვალე რა მაგარი ხარ!!!

[@suzitk9813]

მართლაც!

[@kevinnunez7929]

Que canción es?

[@elizzy8754]

Music from La Bayadere.

О, Боже ! Зачем в замедленной съемке? Виктор Лебедев делает такие же прыжки без замедления видео ))))) И даже выше.

[@fullofdance3732]

Lebedev is a great dancer. I agree with you! I saw him live and liked him a lot. Now: 1) Comparing dancers implies there is a competition and ranking them makes sense. But an artist, if he is really an artist, is always unique. What you can compare are technical details, that don't imply anything about their artistry. If you need to compare height of jumps, number of turns or whatever, it's because you're having trouble comparing artistry. I don't care about the height of jumps, I care if they FEEL like flying, if the feeling is imparted to and shared by the public, and if that flying says something about the role's personality or feelings. 2) Ivan Vasiliev's Solor is about SOOO much more than just height of jumps!!! There is the great beauty of movements, an amazing strong stage presence, his complete surrender to the role, charisma. You believe his Solor, you can't avoid it. The jumps feel indeed like flying, and they make you understand Solor better. 3) If you like Lebedev, look for his videos and praise him there. He definitely deserves it and it will surely please him. 4) But Ivan's fans don't go to Lebedev's videos to say he is less this or that, do they? It's a despicable practice, that dishonor any dancer's hard work and commitment, and may embarass the dancers themselves, have you ever thought of that? I'm sure Ivan himself wouldn't like if we, his fans, would do that. After all, they are all colleagues, and their "competition" may be healthier than the competition among their fans. AND Ivan is a generous artist, that doesn't mind other dancers achieving great feats, he even helps his friends to it. So better not do it here too, because it puts unknowing Lebedev in a stingy light. 5) I'm sorry I picked you out to write about all this, but I'm so tired of this kind of thing - it creates so much hostility where there should be just joy about beauty, it makes no sense at all. It's nothing against you individually. I just wanted to state my opinion. You were a random "victim" I targeted, please excuse me for that.

[@user-dm1nr9fh3z]

Не сравнить,Васильев лучше!!!!

[@Feliandyx16]

No se si Isaac Hernández llegue a la perfección de Ivan ¡¡¡

[@nanditajhaveri4649]

CLARO QUE NO.
