Natalia Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 Diana Vishneva's evening of modern choreography (including WOMAN IN A ROOM), on the 2nd night of the festival has been changed. It will now be a tribute to DV's teacher - and pedagogue of so many stars through the years - Ludmilla Kovaleva. DV will still dance one modern piece but the evening now will include many classical pieces in a Divertissement to be performed by Kovaleva's most famous students, including Olga Esina and other guests. http://www.mariinsky.ru/en/playbill/playbill/2016/4/1/1_1930/ Link to comment

Drew Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 How nice to see all the dancers greet and present flowers to Kovaleva! That was the loveliest aspect of this evening. As a gala performance I found it, on video at least, a mixed affair. Had I been in the theater I daresay I would have enjoyed seeing Vishneva--on video I was unwilling to watch the Van Manen beyond the first few minutes. She is a great, great artist, but what she is doing just doesn't seem to communicate to me in this recorded format. Some of the point of "Live" in particular seems lost even when one can make sense of it intellectually. Perhaps I will make myself watch it later. The highlight for me of what I DID watch was Smirnova's variation/coda in Don Q; when she is really in command of what she does the movement looks simultaneously regal and joyous. And I appreciated the speed in such a long limbed dancer. However, the adagio looked a bit labored for my taste though I allow that the role is new to her and, again, I'm watching video. (Perhaps Ovcharenko is not the best partner for her...but perhaps the adago will work better at their upcoming performance in April.) I also enjoyed Borchenko in Corsaire and I always quite like Yermakov. Link to comment
abatt Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Yes, Vishneva is a great artist. However, she has chosen, increasingly, to focus on non-classical work. For me, her modern non-ballet works don't work on video or in person anymore. I thought she might do something remotely classical at the gala, since this was a tribute to the teacher that helped her reach her full potential as a classical ballerina. But no, that did not happen. Link to comment

aqualia2008 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 This was not illegal footage. It was uploaded by Ermakov himself. The video is now available on his official youtube page. Link to comment
