What a iconic duo! Two incredibly talented people they must have had a lot of fun working together

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Indeed! Thank you.

They were so much in love in those days! More than fun it was passion. When they were on stage together from 2015 to 2018 the whole performance was pure fire! Passionate love from beginning to end!

She really is the greatest ballerina I've ever seen! Gorgeous performance.

[@amalteaballerina]

You must be watch more ballerinas,. my friend. Have you ever seen Ulyana Lopatkina? Diana Vishneva, Eugenia Obratzova, Alina Somova, and the great Ballerinas passed by like Altynay Asylmuratova, Galina Mezenseva, Gabriela Komleva, and don't forget Maya Plisetskaya, Karen Kain, Galina Ulanova, Ekaterina Maximova, ...The history of Ballet is very long & the Greatest Ballerinas are a very long list of them. Perhaps you haven't seen enough ballet. The music is Wonderful, P.I. Tchaikovsky!!! The gorgeous Ballet, tipical of Xmas. The Nutcracker. And the ballerin, ejem, there are many other greatest Stars. Polunin is a little student untill he was a man.

Natalia is, as usual, exquisite. How long ago was this done, she looks very young. Even very young she still had ‘it’ 🩰🩰🩰🩰👵👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Thank you for your comments. This was performed in 2016, so Natalia was 30 years old.

[@gonefishing167]

Wow, she looks like a young girl 🩰🩰👵👵👵❤️❤️❤️

[@minissa2009]

You can find her graduation performance {17} of the Esmeralda pdd variation {the one with the tambourine} on YT. Her technique was extraordinary even then and included perfectly clean triple pirouettes. With the tambourine.

[@gonefishing167]

I think I have seen it , thank you. There’s a really old one as well. She’s only about 9 or 11 or so. You can so easily see what she was going to become. 🩰🩰🩰👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

I'm glad you found the Nutcracker video I shared on my channel useful. Thanks for sharing the link to the full video in your description for those who might want to watch the entire program!

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Awesome thank you!

[@kellyantoniadou8897]

Thanks for uploading! I had only seen the sugar plum fairy variation of this performance. I am not a fan of post-Bolshoi Osipova but seeing these two amazing dancers (either separately or together) is never boring.

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@minissa2009]

Hi Bundu! Is there more of this production? I thought NYCB had the biggest tree in all creation, but this one beats it! Were they guesting with a company local to Novibirsk? Always a pleasure, thanks for posting!

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Hi minissa2009! Yes there is more of this production. I put the link for the full ballet in my description. Yes, they were indeed guesting in Novosibirsk.
