[@ВикторияГаланцева-з7у]

Прекрасный дуэт. Спасибо за наслаждение! !!!

[@gonefishing167]

O.k, so they’re very inexperienced but , they have time to grow and improve. It’s a very hard piece to do. I’d like to see them do it in a few years. For now, good job, good try, good experience for them. Wishing them well for their futures 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@АлександрЯрков-ш2з]

Браво блестяще станцевали очень виртуозно

[@fabiesque]

the orchestration is very tawdry. It sounds like the brass band going through the streets of Naples

[@z6519404]

Ах как мне нравится Олечка Смирнова! Какие у нее длинные и пластичные руки!

[@ohioconservatoryofballet]

Who was her teacher at Vaganova academy Love her arms head and accents! She is amazing

[@ZachRogers94]

I thought she would be future Mariinsky star... turns out she will be soon Bolshoi's star ballerina. He is already star at Mikhailovsky. A truly talented pair. I love her refined, queen-like style!

[@oliverdownunder9397]

This guy can't partner to save his life!!

[@ileanamuntean7338]

So elegant!!! Thank you for this upload!

[@leoninsf]

He is a horrible partner, often he stands too far away from his partner and pulls her off center of gravity. He is a decent dancer when dancing solo, but he tends to flop his writs around like a fairy, so distracting to watch sometimes. This PDD overall is just messy, two individual talented dancers can't make the dance beautiful. Recently I have seem many young Russian ballerinas turn ballet into a circus act with their knees up to the ear, whack whack without any artistry or understanding of the role they are performing..

[@normamimosa7295]

Pure, utter hogwash, from a jealous armchair critic.

[@zeddnl6514]

I think it's fair to say that though both dancers have clear potential, artistry still has a long way to go. Also please consider the fact this dancers are on their 7th or final year at the academy so they're still quite young. But I gotta agree, young Lebedev seems stiff and off.

[@timothyk9086]

You are absolutely wrong and definitely a hater.

[@kathymyers7279]

Without artistry? Her artistry is so beautiful!

[@kathymyers7279]

She has so much stage presence! Putting the grand in the pas!

[@pediatrapaola]

now this guy is improved a lot and is among the best dancer in SPB

[@daintydracy]

Bits of oops moment here and there but they were awesome! Love the both of them but kinda sad they're not in Mariinsky. Maybe that's better though. Anyway, is this Lebedev's graduation?

[@ТатьянаСевостьянова-м9ю]

Когда танцует Ольга - танцует само вдохновение! При безупречной технике классического танца столько грации, совершенства, завораживающего артистизма

[@ТатьянаСевостьянова-м9ю]

Столько потаенной чувственности, грациозности, красоты и изящества! Браво, Ольга!

[@ЛесяЛат]

Неплохо, не всегда в музыку, были сбои и ошибки, мальчик слабоват,Смирнова технически более или менее выполнила. Это па _де де труднейшее, эталон это Александрова и Цискаридзе. Этой паре можно поставить четвёрку с натяжкой.

[@olgashcherbachenko7934]

Смирнова-это пример просто техники без танца!Сплошная математика!

[@ИринаМакарова-о9г]

Olga Shcherbachenko Думаю, что по-существу Вы правы. Однако такова, на мой взгляд, сама суть стилистики этого номера)

[@ioioioioio265]

Bellissimo commento, ma non lo trovo appropriato alla destinataria.

[@Balletbelle320]

great feet, no heart :(

[@lianmm19lm]

Why she is called the prodigy? I mean she's amazing, but I think all the russian ballerinas are

[@ersteerste]

really messy and so... pupil-like. there is no dance, she doesn't seem to feel what she's doing, there are just separate elements learnt by heart.

[@waikaywong]

so many mistakes

[@НатальяКимаева-г6в]

А что так заваливаемся на турах....😅?! И еще кто то браво кричит!😂 Ай ай ай ай!!!

[@mathildewesendonck7225]

6.41-7.14 ahhhh.... my standing legs 🦵 calf muscles burn from watching this... she only gets down to demi pointe, not on the whole foot!! She is so incredibly strong.

[@clemus95]

очень хорошо!!:)

[@Janna-eu6cg]

Сразу после академии такая куколка была, а в большом свой класс заметно понизила

[@ukrainianballet_unofficial1344]

A lot of uncomfortable moment there but now both are amazing dancers. Mariinsky lost so much.

[@giuliorenzobighin8165]

Ottimo.il mantenimento delle pose figurali alcune delle quali inedite ed estremamente accattivanti nell'ensemble. Ottimo quello che con un mio neologismo mi piace chiamare convolo aereo ed elanista della ballerina ottimamente indotto e tenuto dal partner. Ottima impressione di facilità esecutiva d'acchito da parte di entrambi. Ottima levità fluente fatta tensione elanista e motile sorprendente in questa ballerina che riconduce i passi a musica come se avesse immiata l'euritmia melodica. Ottimo e direi imperativo l'occupazione dello spazio proscenico da parte del ballerino a salti e frequentissime sforbiciate volanti .Ottimo il senso del continuum dato alla pièce danzante.Superlativi BIGHIN GIULIO RENZO 😊😊😊😊

[@Beam261]

amazing extension but a bit of a disappointment overall...the dancing isn't connected to the music and it jst looks like a set of technique, little emotion and wobbly balances... I totally prefer dancers like Ksenia Zhiganshina who don't have her crazy extension or hyper extended feet but who dance their heart out and listen to the music.

[@Dancing4Me33]

That was Gorgeous, in the first dance there were a couple of balancing issues and Slight mess ups, I almost felt as if the two dancers didn't have a Strong Connection. But no dancer is perfect, and these two truly are VERY gifted!

[@tasmandavids]

Zhiganshina and Smirnovoa can't be compared. One is tiny the other extremley tall. One already dancing principal roles with one of the worlds greatest companies and the other still hast two years of training remaining. How this can be classed as a dissapointment I will never know. I would challenge you to search the world over and find other 18 year olds who can dance at this level. Sorry but in this case just saying she dosent dance her heart out or listen to the music? very odd.

[@balletcraziness]

wow her legs!

[@Valmarierl]

Not her, HE sucks. She must have been furious. :(

[@alessandramei7355]

io penso che l'unica ballerina veramente eccezionale sia solo la Zakharova

[@jaquelineciardiello1762]

+Alessandra Mei e la guillem dove la metti penso sia la piu grande ballerina della storia

[@Lapidu18]

resta chiusa nella tua bolla allora... come fai a dire una cosa simile??! ma almeno ti intendi di danza? il mondo è pieno di ballerini eccezionali.. ce ne sono per tutti i gusti.. detto ciò la zakharova a me personalmente non fa impazzire, avrà anche linee superbe, ma per interpretazione e tecnica ci sono veramente moltissime altre migliori

[@egomi24]

She looks hard to partner. She is really hyper-extended in the knees and looks like she needs a lot of help with her turns. It is really up to her to pull up and not sit on her knees. He did a great job!

[@lakenvelder0pandora]

Sloppy and rushed, but she is none the less beautiful. Wonderful extension and I like the way she holds her upper body. Now only if it wasn't so messy...

[@zullytigua9185]

lindo aunq casi se cae en la pose y en los fouettes hizo una a releve y no se subio a la punta.... sin contar eso fue increible me gusto :D

[@oldoperafan_in_London]

The orchestra is a bit wonky imo.

[@mimicasablancas991]

Was she off during this? She seemed extremely unstable and he is a good partner..?

[@marenskrede914]

Probably just a little nervous:)

[@yanniedlee]

He doesn't really work well with Smirnova. He might be great with other dancers like Nina Kapstova, and Zakharova, but just not with Olga. The choreography for her personality during her variation was also very odd, and didn't fit with her very well. In my opinion.

[@oldoperafan_in_London]

I am struggling to find the right words.

[@JanetteHeffernan]

Well put! 'Good' is perhaps not the word for this dancer to quote WS Gilbert when he was being tactful

[@oldoperafan_in_London]

Their parents must have been very proud?

[@NinaaBallet]

They are wonderful! :)

[@c.weltscheff5970]

disappointed

[@lP-vc5rh]

and you are who?

[@KaosVerket]

sravnite VORONTSOVA-OVCHARENKO

[@kathymyers7279]

Gosh shes amazing!

[@murielbelmondo7074]

Magnifique bravo

[@daintydracy]

Bits of oops moment here and there but they were awesome! Love the both of them but kinda sad they're not in Mariinsky. Maybe that's better though. Anyway, is this Lebedev's graduation?

[@ConsciousMemory]

my god her feet are gorgeous! but I wish she'd pay more attention to her arms... actually both of them don't have good épaulement at all...

[@labayadere7643]

I will admit it was hard to notice at first, but those who say he made the mistakes was actually right... notice at 0:09 his heels go up, he loses his balance... and thus she goes off-balance as well. It would have been worse if he crashed, otherwise both would have gone down... but I think this was just unfortunately a bad performance, it is not hard to find other performances where both are better, together (Vaganova Nutcracker) and with other partners.

[@Beam261]

I don't know, that's just how I felt after watching it...disappointed after hearing so much about her. I'm not saying she isn't good, amazing even, just that I didn't enjoy her dancing as much as I was expecting to. Personal opinion :)

[@stephaniecruvant9130]

Lebedev is such a great partner. Here he helps with a moment of imbalance, on another video he paddles the ballerina for her last turn as she slowed down too early!! Greatness!! This GPC was fun to watch; usually it is dry, dry, dry, but there two have an extra spark!

[@Valmarierl]

+Stephanie Cruvant without any intent to offend. Maybe we are not watching the same video. He sucks...bigtime. He was the one getting her off balance. She was never centered, at all. She pulled it off because she is great but with other ballerina, it might have been worse. If that was me, I would have been furious... making her look bad.

[@stephaniecruvant9130]

Yannie Lee​ valmarie ramos​ Thanks, you both make good points. I am not a dancer & therefore lack the experience to really "see". I will watch again and learn; this is a process. Thanks!

[@normamimosa7295]

I agree with Stephanie Cruvant. I highly doubt that you could even complete the Grand Pas Classique, let alone partner in it. If you could complete it with her technique and artistry, you wouldn't be on here making comments. Perhaps you could give us some links to your GPC so we can judge for ourselves.

[@victorimpaglione1885]

que desesperacion el no puede bailar asi male y co una bailarina monunento como Olga . ella le va grande el no tiene la clace para secundarla.

[@victorimpaglione1885]

i la supuesta copia Stars del Bolshoi per favore respetate el publico

[@victorimpaglione1885]

olga no debia bailar ese. partener porque no esta a la altura

[@TheGiantCellist]

That is just horrible partnering from Lebedev... Smirnova is beautiful as usual.

[@chaukwan199722]

haha... You guys should go to see 3:38 The boy push Lebedev..quiet funny hah?

[@sweetaliena]

The music was too rushed at the PDD and at the end. They were very good.

[@aprilthrusday]

pretty sure lebedev is the boy. at least he was one when I saw him on Saturday

[@balletovic]

ı thınk he ıs bıt nervious !!

[@АнгелаКрис]

👏👏👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙌🕊

[@DCFunBud]

She was off right from her first turn at 0:09.

[@ahuraven]

Lebedev has terrible arms....

[@KaosVerket]

chto za orkestr mestami prosto udivlyat

[@jorgejure7673]

The "band" (we couldn't call "that" an orchestra) was off pitch lacked the syncopation as Auber wrote it and was out of tune in the bronzes. Poor dancers they deserved something better.

[@DCFunBud]

He was amazing.

[@pediatrapaola]

imo in this moment he would be precious in mariinsky whose male principals are in this moment the worst ever

[@tutus4life]

Lebedev is an amazing partner but she didn't spot her head which is why he didn't know when she wanted to stop turning. They make an absolutely beautiful pair

[@melimelopattfam1292]

horrible
