    WOW!  The subtle nuances that she adds here are tremendous.  The tempo in the pas de deux seems a little slow.  In her variation she added a fouetté in that pirouette to attitude turn and I LOVED it!!!!!!!  The way she uses her head and hands really give her Odile a devilish color!

     

    Have you watched the official full broadcast of Swan Lake from Mikhailovsky?

    As I know, Lebedev was invited not only by the Mariinsky, but also by the Paris National Ballet. But Mikhailovsky company was a short-cut for the big repertoire. Lebedev chose to work there with M. Messerer, who is a master of highest class.

    First of all he is a strong partner and really allows Borchenko to shine and shine she does!

    I found their partnership very impressive, especially in the Black duet.

    WOW!  Lebedev's variation in this is fantastic!  His technique is so clean and he has such a lovely facility.   

    Soboleva is quite lovely as well.

     

    What do you think about Lebedev's performance in Swan Lake?

    I don't want to say he is wasted at the Mikhailovsky, because that would be to imply Mikhailovsky is not a good company, which it certainly is, but from Lebedev's own point of view, he has missed out on the worldwide exposure and opportunities that being a principal at Mariinsky would have brought him.

    Well, who knows?... Lebedev was invited to join Mariinsky, but he chose the Mikhailovsky. So did Borchenko... So did Sarafanov, who left Mariinsky and joined Mikhailovsky.
