Tribute to Skvortsov - Principal of the Bolshoi Oct 2009 - Oct 2020

[@ГалинаНикитина-б8н7н]

Это гениальный танцор, уникальный талант! Как хорошо что есть интернет, где можно увидеть такое совершенство! Открыла для себя Скворцова и Осипову, я их обожаю. Раньше знала и восхищалась С. Захаровой, её хоть по телевизору показывали. Сейчас в одном ряду Руслан Скворцов и Наталья Осипова! ❤❤❤

Лучший в Большом театре. Это определенная эпоха и стиль. И ещё отмечу, как человек, дважды бравший у него интервью, Руслан совершенно без звёздной болезни. Воспитанный и адекватный.

[@susieq7245]

В отличие от законченного нарцисса Цискаридзе. Такого самовлюблённого эгоцентриста, считающего себя на вершине мира, вообще больше нет, он уникален. Да, талантлив, но не уникален и не идеален в танце, только распиарен собственными непомерными усилиями! Руслан настолько приятный человек, умный воспитанный, интеллигентный, красивый! На мой взгляд лучший премьер Большого нашего времени.

[@AnyaV]

@@susieq7245 а почему Вы оставили свой комментарий именно под моей записью? Любопытно. Для сведения. Я всегда защищала Николая Цискаридзе. Но со многим, что он говорит публично, я не согласна.

Awfully nice of you to upload this fine set!

What!?This is such terrible news. He was one of the best Russian male dancers. His dance was so refined, smooth and elegant. What an artist he is/was. He will be missed.😔

[@muscoviteonvoyage4963]

He has not vanished to the blue; the Bolshoi site says he is now on a stand-in position and no longer in-house, but that doesn't mean he had retired altogether. And he shouldn't either, being in a great shape. I was lucky to see him last season when he was called to substitute for David Hallberg with just a couple of hours' notice, and it turned out to be one of the finest 'Giselles' I've ever seen

[@sweetaliena]

[@voraciousreader3341]

It’s so interesting to see retrospective videos of dancers to see how they evolve. I’m not really familiar with this danseur.....he has fantastically long legs and some gorgeous jumps. But he had real problems stopping his momentum when turning a few rotations quickly and landing on one leg, and often on both legs. I saw it in the first, and it was still marked in the last, when he landed on both legs. Strange for a danseur of his caliber, but the rest of his work is truly wonderful.

Watching again, fascinated by Skvortsov's incredible, almost superhuman abilities. He was magnificent in all of the clips, but my favorites were the scenes from "The Pharaoh's Daughter," which is so seldom performed. If the information on Wiki is correct, he's only 44; what is he doing now?
