Igor Yebra

[Mireille]

Russian television broadcast a Ballet Gala on Maya Plissetskaya's anniversary that was held I believe two years ago, featuring among others Igor Yebra performing his own version of The Swan... I was very pleased with his performance and I believe the presentator mentioned that he choreographed it as well... he seems to be a very fine dancer. His Swan starts in complete silence, performing some of the movements of Fokine and his own addings, then a series a grands jetés in a manège accompanied by the sound of a storm, and then his interpretation on Saint Saens' music... A fine performance. This Gala also featured Kilian's Clouds, some of Bejart's works and Russian classics (Don Q, Corsair, Esmeralda, Diana & Acteon).
