    As beautiful as he is dancing, he is still not touching Misha's rendition. At least that is what this unprofessional's mind sees it. :)

    Well done, Kent. For years I have felt that Herman is not only the best male dancer at ABT, he is a modern-day Nijinsky in terms of technical ability and control.

    Awesome! Though on the short side, Herman has the most incredible, impressive body; thankfully, when he danced being a shorter Principal
    made no difference at all for a Premier Danseur with his immense talents. He is amazing!
