Osmolkina, Lobukhin - Diana and Acteon

[@philzmusic8098]

Mikhail Lobukhin is without a doubt the most virile dancer I have ever seen. His Spartacus is a stunner. He may not be the most graceful dancer in the world, but he's hot as hell!

[@TheBallet1]

this is the glorious! the best Diana and Acteon I've ever seen. there is triumphant joy in their dance!

[@tutus4life]

where has she gone?????? She has such power and is such a joy to watch she always looks genuinely happy Diana fits her very very well

[@Uちゃん-e3p]

Love Lobukhin, he dances with such passion.

[@bertrandcoutens7880]

Lobukhin perfect and one body of David from Michel Ange.

@@bertrandcoutens7880 лучшая оценка! Он лучший в Большом театре!

Ok, aporto mi impresión de este pas de deux con estos dos artistas. Creo que es una de las mejores versiones que se hayan podido grabar para la posteridad. Es mi pas de deux preferido, excelsamente bailado. El acoplamiento y conexión entre ambos bailarines, es justamente apropiado. El "junte" ("casting") de ambos está excelente. Aparte de lo técnico, en lo físico lucen "simétricos", por así decirlo. Es materia de opinión, pero para mí ésta es la interpretación definitiva. Agrippina Vaganova, la coreografa, estaría orgullosa.

Thank you, so much, for posting this! I always tell my students of the unbridled passion of Russian dancers, and this shows that so beautifully!

[@simaraft7373]

Only who loooooove cats has a heart to remember the rest of the world and gift us with such a amazing , fantastic incredible wonder like this video. I thank you very very much and.....I looovvveeee cats too.

[@misshiss4040]

I wish i could see her do all the roles that sloppy zarkharova does...shes got the body, talent, skill and actually uses technique

[@atr46]

Отлично. Идеально. У Лобухина, тут написали, сложение, как у Давида Микнланджело, прыжки космические. Осмолкина изящна, такая отточенность рук, стоп

[@СветланаКоломыйченко-ц1ж]

Да, уж! Сложен так, что лучше и быть не может! В Большом он самый лучший!

[@stephaniecruvant9130]

What PERFECT Diana & Acteon partners!! Both breathtaking .. *o* !!

[@looovecats]

@tutus4life She was injured for a half year, if not more, but I've heard that she's revovered now. But still she doesn't dance, at least in Mariinsky. I've read she refused to dance some performances in Mariinsky and danced somewhere as a guest.

[@rosgembrun]

Thank you for posting this. It brings so much pleasure each time I play it. This is a piece in which both the female and male dancers are superb. Usually I do not notice the male. He is there to provide support, make sure she doesn't fall over. But this guy is astonishing. Tarzan meets Diana.. And, the music! I had never even heard of this ballet before. Sometimes it sounds like Minkus, but it is by someone named Drigo?

[@rosgembrun]

I have since seen quite a few other videos, other interpretations of this ballet, and none compare to this one.

[@Bnesque]

once Mariinsky had real Diana and real Acteon. sigh...

[@palubob]

@retusina. As you no doubt know, she is back and in fine form, perhaps better than ever.

[@looovecats]

If you like him so much maybe intresting for you would be rumours that he's leaving Mariinsky and is to join Bolshoi...

[@2snowgirl520]

Just beautiful. Is this pas considered one of the most difficult in ballet, anyone know? It sure looks like it.

[@9415908]

Really?!!! It seems like so many people from the Mariinsky make the move to the Bolshoi for some reason. Perhaps it is the right decision for him, but Andrei Merkuriev also left and doesn't seem to get as many roles there. But good luck to him whether he goes or stays.

[@tutus4life]

@looovecats REFUSED?? wow how do you refuse to dance at the Mariinsky? She should leave and go to the Maly, they would skyrocket with her there

[@dmitrid1]

she's too slow. lacks attack. I wish Gelsey Kirkland would have danced this.....and had it filmed.
