My Top 10 Male Ballet Of Our Times 2024

[@misss3480]

For me, Vadim has it all: beautiful lines, incredible artistry, grace and elegance. His technique is so clean, he makes everything look effortless.

[@nicolehourcade]

I agree Kimin Kim has the technical high level but something else charismatic and iconic🌺🌹🙏🌸

[@sarahmott8876]

Agree. They are all superb however I find Kim is electrifying and always stirs this old heart 🇦🇺♥️

[@ToniMg4u]

Ya.. Kimin..and Antonio for Me were the Best of the Best... No one touched Antonio's precise pirouettes...like that guy has a drill attached to his spine!!.. and KIMIN...Wow!!.. Big results from a lil guy!!.. He was FLYING all over that stage...with such Grace and Elegance and yet..Strength and Power!!.. The definition of Dance... ✌️❤️😎👍👍🪽🪽

[@nicolehourcade]

Mintagirov is very impressive unbelievable balance and precision😮

[@ninaghiggini7686]

VADIM is a great artist and a great joy to watch, such beauty of line, such grace, such elegance and fabulous technique, he makes it look effortless, no showing off, he expresses the character he is dancing 🎉

[@Palatinate-o5d]

My favorites are the male dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet. Above all, Hugo Marchand. Beauty, grace and skills

[@marcellepesek3038]

A very enjoyable and admirable group of young dancers! Thank you very much for uploading this video.

[@nicolehourcade]

Simkin unbelievable😮 technique

[@lindahandley5267]

The male body is perfection and these dancers are magnificent!

[@bernadetteballerina9358]

Shale Wagman, Cesar Corrales, Yuya Omaki, Antonio Casalinho, Vadim Muntagirov, Paul Marque, Yue Shi, Daniil Simkin, Osiel Gouneo, Kimin Kim

Kimmin Kim is definitely the bonus Thankyou,

Fantástico. Nada como um belo Ballet para por fogo e entusiasmo pela vida!!! Parabéns ao canal.

[@kittywarner3118]

My favorite of this batch is Daniil Simkin. I saw him live in NY two years ago doing Don Quixote and he was a lot more precise than Mr. Kim, who I thought looked a little sloppy here (although I would love to see him live too).

[@e4gin]

I'll go with Simkin. Graceful and beautiful technique

[@maiteabellanosa5556]

My favorite is Mikhail Barishnikov!! Pls check him out.

[@katwil89]

Oh yes! My favorite, favorite of all time!

[@alynneloup7707]

Cesar Corrales puts it all together. strength, control and charisma

[@sweetbrightsea]

Que maravilha e com passos que nunca vi! Obrigada.

[@DeepSeas..]

Antonío is probably the best dancer I’ve ever seen. People here should definitely check out his other performances.

[@Carlos-dancingfan]

I absolutely agree. I think that he has the potential to be the new Baryshnikov

[@slywlf]

As a lifelong fan of the dance, I really enjoyed this! In fact I may be sending you a doctor bill for fixing my dislocated jaw 😉 The biggest thing I miss since leaving the NYC area is the lack of ballet, and while I grew up on Baryshnikov, Nureyev and those greats it never stopped me from appreciating newer talent. This collection gave me great joy! Thank you from an aging ballet fan!

[@jimbecarroll5780]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpaYZZaEoqqKrdEsi=UHJuRbtEaZQ6JdUg I'm sure you'll need jaw surgery after viewing this piece by a dancer Not many have had the opportunity to see live such as I have. Desmond Richardson. He is one half of the Contemporary Dance Company called COMPLEXIONS Contemporary Ballet, which, as you can see from its name, probably was no received well in middle America. But if you would, you can find many a thrilling pieces he and his partner Dwight Oden have choreographed together.

[@dronesclubhighjinks]

What a lovely comment! It’s so refreshing to find a positive attitude amongst people who identify themselves as older fans. There is an unfortunate tendency to say/write sadly or smugly “Things were better in my day. We will never see anything like it again ever.“ I’ve even seen this among 20 year old K-pop fans bemoaning that the music they loved in middle school is so much better than what’s being produced now. 😂 Best wishes! 🙏🧡🎶🩰💐

[@dasha01]

Все понравились, шикарные прыжки. Но для меня так и остаётся на первом месте- Александр Годунов, не видела больше такой стати, телосложения и шикарных прыжков. Но, наверное, такие танцоры рождаются раз в 100 лет)

Первый танцовщик великолепен невероятно в Пламя Парижа. И Кимин очень хорош.

[@laurenceu4480]

Ivan vassiliev... incomparable

[@mrchrisliddell]

Nice! Glad you included Paul, he's incredible!

[@elizzy8754]

Paul Marque is a superb dancer. I'm not sure that the Paris orchestra tempo was quite "Ashtonian". Take a look at Steven McRae performing the same variation at the Royal Ballet. It should be a little faster and that would prevent the small rebound at the end when Marque drops down onto two hands.

[@sfebon]

That corrales guy has an inherent grace I didn’t see in the others. The Kim guys legs are unreal.

[@НовицькаВалентина]

For me, Baryshnikov is the best of best, forever!

[@bentebunting9568]

You are right but he is not a current dancer

[@marieuzes]

@@bentebunting9568he is the absolute best of the 20th century. None of these younger dancers have yet to accomplish his mastery.

[@ZamorArt]

Love the video, love all the dancers but, specially Kimmin Kim , beautiful.

[@HRHGuinevere]

They all have technical expertise but they lack the charisma of Baryshnikov. He more than danced, he acted. He connected with the other dancers on stage and the audience.

[@bernadetteballerina9358]

His Giselle was breathtaking- Act 2!

[@GGG-f1b2f]

Shale Wagman is a smouldering dynamo, not lacking charisma. All these these young genius dancers have potential. Baryshnikov is a 20th century legend, give them time.

В детстве была мечта, стать балериной, но не было возможности. А сейчас смотрю с наслаждением! ❤❤❤

[@jamesk8s1]

Dancer #9(Cesar) and #6 (Vadim) #3(Daniil) did all or the majority of their air and floor rotations CCW, which is the way that most figure skaters rotate. Skaters are given a choice by what is natural i.e., most people who are right handed would rotate CCW and most people who are left handed feel a natural rotation in the CW direction. I've heard that dancers are taught to rotate in both directions. When a routine is choreographed with all or the majority of rotations in the CCW rotational direction as it was for dancer 9, 6 and 3, is that a choice given to the dancer or just the prerogative of every dancer? I love ballet; haven't seen a ton, but of the ballet work I have seen, it seems most dancers turn primarily in the direction of what we call in skating "a lefty" direction. If I had been made to spin primarily CW, a very un-natural direction for me, I would not have been able to do triples, and I doubt - for the great quad jumpers of today - they would be doing quads without being allowed to jump in their natural direction. I've always been curious about this? 🧐 WOW on #1 Kimin Kim...just WOW - definitely deserving 1st!!!!!

[@carolinafranciscosorg780]

dancers learn and train to both sides as equally as possible to maintain a muscular balance over the years, but in variations principals do most the side they are better. For dancers CW is to the right- it is the left standing leg but the turn is to the right side, when the turn is en dehors (to the side of the leg that is in passé)

[@jamesk8s1]

Thank you Carolina - makes sense. Glad principal dancers can choose to rotate in the direction or in the "side they are better". 👏@@carolinafranciscosorg780

[@marynoonan6111]

I do know Simpkin is a natural Left hander. Don’t know about any of the others. You can do triples?! Wow. I adore ballet and really like skating and sit in awe of your skills. If someone calls my name as Im walking across the kitchen and I turn my head, Im likely to face plant. 😂

[@jamesk8s1]

Hi Mary, ha ha 🤣"face plant" love it, but I'm sure you are gifted in other wonderful ways!! I trained and competed back in the Brian Boitano day and competed with him in my final event - had to retire just after reaching the Sr. level due to a back injury, but I did get to compete with the great Brian once :)! Yes I did triples, but what skaters are doing now especially the current World Champ Ilia Malinin is something that we thought was humanly impossible and even today - even though he did it, we are in awe of his super human abilities - hope you got to see his performance - if not u can find it on YT. Anyway, best to you! 🙋🏻‍♂@@marynoonan6111
