cubanmiamiboy Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Do you guys remember-(just as with our Odiles and Giselles)-who was your first Swannilda EVER...? (Live I mean..) What about your very favorite...? Link to comment
Helene Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 My first was Stephanie Saland. I'm lucky that I've never seen a Swanhilde that I haven't liked. I have a tie for my favorite: Judith Fugate (NYCB) and Maria Kochetkova (SFB). Link to comment
Natalia Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Patricia McBride! First and Favorite. I'm still waiting to see Evgenia Obraztsova in the Bolshoi-Vikharev version; I'm betting that she will be spectacular, judging by an AI excerpt that she & Sarafanov performed in St Petersburg ca-2003.

Kerry1968 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 My first Swanilda: Patricia Barker w/ PNB in 1990. My favorite Swanilda: Maria Kochetkova w/ SFB in 2011. A Swanilda on my radar: Misa Kuranaga, Boston Ballet. Link to comment
JMcN Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I can't remember my first Swanilda (August 1985 at the RFH in London, LFB (now ENB)) but her Franz was Raymond Smith. Favourite Swanilda is harder but three of my favourites are Lucia Truglia, Ambra Vallo and Nao Sakuma Link to comment
