Arantza Rojas could i ask you a question? When i watch rose adagio videos, i found that there are two different choreographies for Aurora's entrance. One with jetes and one without. Can you tell me why?
I agree this is truly beautiful and certainly one of the best but for the absolute best - check out one of the rare clips of Darcey Bussell (Royal Ballet) dancing classical. Her Rose Adagio is the best ever! Full of the most beautiful artistry but also technically superb. She is Sublime.
If you saw Cynthia Gregory, you wouldn't write that this one was the best. That opening, gymnastic split extension was vulgar and flashed the audience like a red district stripper would do.
Какая хрустальная чистота и красота в исполнении! Просто квинтэссенция классического балета! И удивительно - четверо детей, и после каждого декрета Олеся становится все лучшею хотя кажется, что это невозможно. Какое счастье, что мы опять видим ее на сцене!
According to Mariinsky theatre she's only a first soloist, but in my opinion she's one of the best ballet dancer in the whole planet. Her rose adagio is a pure lesson of classical ballet. She' s divine and she deserves a theatre that recognizes her talent. Thanks Olesya.
Osvaldo Di Gennaro She is remarkable. Even Svetlana doesn’t return to 5th between each balance with the four princes-at least in the version here on UA-cam. And other than taking the 5th position she hardly moves at all. Beautiful.
Voracious Reader exactly. Multiple pregnancies are not good for a ballerina’s carrier. This is why most ballerinas start having children later on in their carrier and usually don’t have many
The is by far the best Rose Adagio I’ve seen. And I’ve seen quite a few. Olesya’s balance, her technique, musicality and delicate movements are exquisite. No zacharova, no lopatkina , not even tereshkina have her balance. She makes it look so effortless its amazing . Im glad she was promoted to prima recently. She is the best ballerina Marinsky can offer
Para mí junto a Tereshkina son las dos mejores bailarinas del momento. Olesya etérea mágica en roles como Aurora y Tereshkina, y su grandiosa presencia escenica en Scherezade o Kitri. Nadie puede igualar la técnica, el control y la musicalidad de estas dos mega estrellas del Mariinsky. Me alegre muchisimo de la tan demorada promoción de Olesya. Fue una verdadera injusticia no haberla ascendido mucho antes.
she totally makes people forget how difficult the rose adagio is, and only remember her as Aurora herself.... such breathtaking elegance, technique and artistry!!! Brava to Novikova, and it's probably time to give her the long overdued principal title!!
Breathtaking! Russian Ballerinas not only had an astonishing technique but they express EMOTIONS...All kind of emotions! They are,in my opinion, ARTISTS!...Just look at their faces when they dance...
Браво, браво, браво! Новикова - украшение Мариинского театра. Блестящая техника, обаяние, всё выше всяких похвал! Да ещё и мама троих детей! Просто героиня для такой профессии!
everything she's doing requires such strength, balance and precision that you KNOW her body's in pain, yet she looks so graceful and effortless that she could be frolicking through a meadow... absolutely incredible
Esta hermosa y delicada Bailarina tan elegante, generosa, tan Profesional, tiene además un contacto visual entre los bailarines y el público, que la hace muy mágica y real al mismo tiempo.Impresionante, tantas virtudes imprescindibles, en esta joya de Bailarina. Muchas gracias por compartir.
Watch this: ua-cam.com/video/Us0DX3LiZIM/v-deo.html Bolshoi Principal, Ekaterina Maximova was her coach....if you don’t know who that is, well, I guess you’d better start checking out the work of more dancers....this kind of balance happens all the time at this level.
Además de ser la más extraordinaria bailarina en este rol q he visto en mi vida, sin ninguna duda. hay q agregar q su físico e interpretación hacen totalmente creíble la actitud de una jovencita de 16 años en su primer baile ante la elección de algunos de los candidatos. Absolutamente brillante!!!
I do believe this is the best I've ever seen of rose adagio by any primas. She was utterly perfect in every move and characterization of Aurora. I wasn't even aware of her till I saw this video and it's unfortunate we in the west didn't get to see these magnificent performers untill many years later. I hope she's still dancing as a prima ballerina in Mariinsky.

These BALLERINAS TRULY AMAZING ! I love BALLET for their HIGH ART SKILL GRACE and PAGENTRY STORY telling Beautiful CHORIOGRAPHY SO MUCH GRACE! ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!💗🐥🎶 BRAVO BRAVO!!!! YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL🐦🌷
To my opinion Russian ballerinas art the best in the world. She does everything so easy when its a very diffucult variation. From a former ballerina :)
This is the best Rose Adagio I have see. No wobbles in the infamous Attitude promenades and utterly and serenely in control the entire time! BRAVA Olesya! Oh, does anyone know how tall she is? She has a wonderfully long body line!
Cristine Giannetto She must be around 5 ft 6 or 5 ft 7 (168- 170 cm), my estimation. She‘s shorter than I thought. I stood next to her when I gave her flowers after a performance, and I‘m 5 ft 9 (175 cm). I agree she has such a wonderful body line! Everything about her is beautiful. Hair, face, skin, teeth... she looks like one of those dolls I had as a child. Oh, and that smile... she‘s just wonderful. And her three kids are equally adorable
Замечательная Олеся - настоящая сказочная принцесса...Танцует так, как будто ее детки сидят в зале и она хочет их порадовать. Это дорогого стоит. Запись старая, но она и сейчас прекрасна...
Sin ningún género de dudas la interpretación de Olesya de Aurora es la mejor q ví en mi vida!!! Ductilidad, una técnica perfecta, etérea, en suma maravillosa! Dudo q nadie pueda superarla en este rol!!!!
Lovely lovely lovely. In the finale,although she missed her balance a bit on the first one, the following ones were some of the best balances I have ever seen (and I did once youtube to look at every version of Rose Adagio). She suits this role so very much. Bravo.
This dancer has, to my eye, a beautiful head placement and upper back posture. Also, she has a wonderful lift and stretch through her torso. And also, some interesting detail in the use of her hands. I don't care for extreme extensions in classical dance. I say save it for contemporary. Your hips and rib-cage are displaced and, classical ballet is about line, and, in particular, pure line. That is what has separated it for one hundred years now from modern dance(to wit Isadorah Duncan who is the one who started rejecting the pure lines in most every way possible). The aim, in classical has always been to have as much extension as possible withOUT distorting the spine or having displacement in the triple square blocks of the shoulders, rib-cage, and hips/pelvis. If you were to sketch it and reduce the lines to their most simple essence, it's a completely different look between contemporary/modern and classical dance. Why does it matter? Because the essence of classical dance is what makes it classical dance. If we all choose as a culture to change that, okay. But I won't go to the ballet as much (I already don't) and to me it looks much more severe and just isn't as attractive. Well, to each his own. As long as the likes of Cynthia Gregory are on UTube and on video, I'll stay home watch that any day over going to theatre and plunking down the big bucks to see extreme sports with some, a little, emotional overlay. Of course this dancer is hugely talented and beautifully trained and very accomplished. So, bravo!
I just loved your description about classical ballet. A long time ago I had a Russian ballet teacher and she was very strict but we knew she loved us. She expected the best out of us and we gave it. Ballet is so much more than just a physical act. It requires great which carries on in your life later on.
@@kathymyers7279 Seriously? She was one of the greatest technicians of her time, and I still feel her Rose Adagio set a bar that few equaled and none exceeded. There were dancers I preferred like Martine van Hamel for artistic reasons (from that generation) but you could never fault Cynthia's technique and maturity of presentation.
I watched the most beautiful rose in my garden recently, and there was quite a hefty storm and much gusty wind but the rose stood tall, its delicate petals still bright and spread out, it withstood the summer hail and wind, and this beautiful, strong ballerina reminds me of this lovely flower! Isn't ballet just wonderful....🌹
I’m sorry, but following many performances and after 10 years no one able to do the same way in every single details what she did as really Aurora, really artist and real master degree ballerina unreachable’ level for the many others in the theatre and still she has a first soloist position while some of top position unable even to do a piece of that kind of great work she has done at this video
Watch this for incredible balance: ua-cam.com/video/Us0DX3LiZIM/v-deo.html Bolshoi Principal, Ekaterina Maximova was her coach....if you don’t know who that is, well, I guess you’d better start checking out the work of more dancers....this kind of balance happens all the time at this level.
Так там у них постановка Нуреева и они обязаны танцевать "как Рудик показал", вот пример: Сильви Гиллем танцевала вариацию Раймонды словно это не " песня души", а именно как дергающийся заводной манекен.
One of the few Russian ballerinas to take the attitude pose with both arms lifted into 5th en haut. I very much appreciated her facial expressiveness and her making eye contact with each cavalier. Of course, technically almost perfect--en dedans a la seconde pirouette needs more confidence--and I wish she didn't feel she had to do those anti-Petipa super-high developpes. We know she can do them--so do something more in keeping with the Petipa style. I think Pyotr Ilych would present her with a bouquet of roses for dancing so beautifully to his glorious music.
Ottimo balletto che segue il filo d'una narratio convincente e finemente psicologica. Ottima impressione di naturalezza esecutiva d'acchito della ballerina sempre accorta nell'enfatizzazione commediale al fine dell'esecutivita '. Ottima la riconduzione dei passi a musica. OLTREMODO BRAVI TUTTI GLI AGENTI IN PROSCENIO. BIGHIN GIULIO RENZO
During all that NIGH ON IMPOSSIBLE pointe work her foot LITERALLY STAYED LIKE A BLOCK OF GRANITE THROUGHOUT!!!!! I don't claim to be any authority on ballet, but I'm ONLY JUST getting my jaw back in place after it went through the floor!!!! I don't think EVEN Margot Fonteyn managed to stop her pointes from wobbling during certain parts of that solo!!! In fairness that could be, in part, down to the way in which the shoes were designed during her career. Does anyone know if the design of pointe shoes has changed significantly since Fonteyn's time in order to offer the dancer more support?
I know absolutely NOTHING about ballet and I would never say this woman isn't one of the world's greatest ballerinas, but I don't particularly find her captivating to watch. I've seen ballerinas who look like they're floating. Their movements look so fluid and relaxed. When I watch this woman it feels stiff to me. Like I feel like I can see the work that goes into it, instead of it looking effortless as it looks in some other ballets I've seen. But that's just my uneducated opinion!
There are three active(!) principals ballerinas in Mariinsky: Somova, Scorick and Tereshkina. I think that Victorya Tershkina is one of the best ballerinas in the world. But by my opinion Novikova is better then Somova or Scorick... But she is mother of three children and only first soloist.
![Olesya Novikova as student VS NOW [PART 1]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/YArMnBDM_Uc/mqdefault.jpg)
Prima ballerina Olesya Novikova! What an incredibly deserved and long overdue promotion.
This Rose Adagio is just stunning. How have I not heard of her? She should be an enormous international star. Every company should beg for her.
Beauty and grace!! She is perfect.
Congratulations Olesya💖🌹🌹💖
Class.
I loved how she presented the second clutch of roses to her parents, I have seen them flung or thrown...she looked with great love and esteem at her parents and gently tossed the roses towards them. Shows a true artistry.
It was effortlessly graceful without BEING graceful
Karen Katz it was very humble, like telling her parents „you may choose who becomes my prince“. I prefer that to the arrogant version (throwing away the roses 🌹 like „Forget it, you are all not good enough for me“)
So much of precious details in her every performance
Best rose adagio I've ever seen! Not only technically beautiful but full of the artistry and characterization of Aurora
Arantza Rojas could i ask you a question? When i watch rose adagio videos, i found that there are two different choreographies for Aurora's entrance. One with jetes and one without. Can you tell me why?
Thisya Yogini there is usually the Russian version and the American version
Arantza Rojas not technically beautiful?
I agree this is truly beautiful and certainly one of the best but for the absolute best - check out one of the rare clips of Darcey Bussell (Royal Ballet) dancing classical. Her Rose Adagio is the best ever! Full of the most beautiful artistry but also technically superb. She is Sublime.
If you saw Cynthia Gregory, you wouldn't write that this one was the best.
That opening, gymnastic split extension was vulgar and flashed the audience like a red district stripper would do.
Какая хрустальная чистота и красота в исполнении! Просто квинтэссенция классического балета! И удивительно - четверо детей, и после каждого декрета Олеся становится все лучшею хотя кажется, что это невозможно. Какое счастье, что мы опять видим ее на сцене!
Can you believe it? In between Pas de Deuxs she gave a birth for four kids?!!! Yes, she is a fantastic mother and an extraordinary ballerina! Bravo❤
According to Mariinsky theatre she's only a first soloist, but in my opinion she's one of the best ballet dancer in the whole planet. Her rose adagio is a pure lesson of classical ballet. She' s divine and she deserves a theatre that recognizes her talent. Thanks Olesya.
Only a mad director to think that she is "ONLY" a first solist, she is the best at the Mariinsky Ballet
@@jileque I agree, she is definately the best bellerina in Mariinsky currently, can't find any other ones with perfect skills like her!
Osvaldo Di Gennaro I agree with every word... she is spetacular
Osvaldo Di Gennaro She is remarkable. Even Svetlana doesn’t return to 5th between each balance with the four princes-at least in the version here on UA-cam. And other than taking the 5th position she hardly moves at all. Beautiful.

And she is soooo beautiful!!!!!!!!!!
Ожидает четвертого сейчас )
Уже четверо! Очень ждем ее возвращения на сцену - в марте Олеся заявлена в двух спектаклях.
Вернулась и теперь - прима!
Novikova gives me the goose bumps: love, love, love this beautiful dancer.
everything she's doing requires such strength, balance and precision that you KNOW her body's in pain, yet she looks so graceful and effortless that she could be frolicking through a meadow... absolutely incredible
Esta hermosa y delicada Bailarina tan elegante, generosa, tan Profesional, tiene además un contacto visual entre los bailarines y el público, que la hace muy mágica y real al mismo tiempo.Impresionante, tantas virtudes imprescindibles, en esta joya de Bailarina. Muchas gracias por compartir.
I saw her again and I thought she was even better than last time, it happens all the time.😍😍😍😍😍
HER BALANCE! HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE.
waves it’s possible because she has years of practice
Watch this: ua-cam.com/video/Us0DX3LiZIM/v-deo.html
Bolshoi Principal, Ekaterina Maximova was her coach....if you don’t know who that is, well, I guess you’d better start checking out the work of more dancers....this kind of balance happens all the time at this level.
She is the Beest!!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏❤️
Олеся волшебная!! Такая легкая и изящная, божественные руки, танцует каждой клеточкой тела. Каждый раз видеть ее в Мариинке - это счастье.

SKILL GRACE and PAGENTRY
STORY telling
Beautiful CHORIOGRAPHY
SO MUCH GRACE!
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!💗🐥🎶
BRAVO BRAVO!!!!
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU ALL🐦🌷
The only complaint that I have with this video, is that the camera is often focused too long on the upper body of the ballerina.
Let’s not forget about the orchestra that is allowing this beautiful combination to happen!
It looks like she creating the music with her body
faymissk that's the key point of ballett
wow i love this comment
An essential component to ballet
I think this is the best interpretation I've seen.
Absolutely stunning! One of the best I've ever seen. So pure. She is the complete embodiment of the role.
How is possible that she's a first soloist?
Mariinsky, you already let go Stepanova and Obraztsova, don't be a fool and make her principal.
I dont understand why.....if she is the best
stepanova is nowhere near as good as novikova or obraztsova, shes quite terrible in comparison to be honest lol but yes agree
She is a defacto Prima
I Love her aurora so so much😭😭I can't find a reason why she still stay as 1st sololist, she definately deserves to be the principal👏👏
All of that balancing is made more impressive by the fact that she's on a raked (tilted) stage. Amazing.
She wasn't wobbly at all, even towards the end! Total control.
she is so unbelievably strong
a trick: you can watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
@Lyle Aries yea, have been watching on flixzone for since december myself :D
@Lyle Aries Yup, I have been using flixzone for since november myself :)
@Lyle Aries yup, I have been watching on flixzone for since november myself :)
She is so beautiful-fits the role so well here.
The control in the balances...I have never seen it before this
To my opinion Russian ballerinas art the best in the world. She does everything so easy when its a very diffucult variation. From a former ballerina :)
QUEEN OLESYA!!!👑
My goodness!! So effortless...!! What an incredible dancer she is!!
The best Aurora ever..the great russian soul..the great russian ballet school..
She played aurora beautifully! She fit the role perfect. I would love to see her play Odette
she is a true princes in there!
really graceful, full of confidence
envy..
Одна из самых чудесных балерин Мариинки♡°♡

You want to talk balances take a look at Cynthia Gregory's Rose Adagio!
Besides, your guys should go to see her Raymonda act2, her control and balance was incredible!
Наверное, труднейшее адажио из всех труднейших в мире! Олеся лучшая в этом адажио во всех сиыслах
A true Prima ballerina! I watched this more times than I am ready to admit.
Her control and stage performance. Bravo! 🎭👏🏼
Truly exquisite! So delicate, a true expression of this art form. Thank you for posting 💕
Novikova is amazing!
Pause in 2:50!
Absolutely beautiful. Those developpes at the beginning!
The most difficult part of the complete score: Rose 🌹 Adage.
Beautiful 🌺🌹🌷❤️
She portrays a wonderful Aurora, here. Technique, style, acting : she IS that very young princess Aurora.

Love, love her ❤
she is so beautiful!

Bravo bravo bravo bravo fantastic brilliance grandiose ballerina genial
Stunning
Phenomenal🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❣️
Apart from all other amazing qualities..... Her balance! It's better than Fonteyns! That's impossible balance, best ever.
The old video of Cynthia Gregory shames this one to the ground. There were no balances that I could see.
i love her so much

Ballet at its best.
Прекрасная Олеся. Волшебно.
i dont know much about the technique of ballet, i just watch it for enjoyment but her dancing looks more polished to me than svetlanas!
"Очей очарование..." и бальзам измученной душе!
What a beautiful ballerina!
Олеся - это чудо, настоящая сказочная принцесса. К примеру, лучшие французкие балерины смотрятся по сравнению с ней, как механические куклы...

The stability on the Rose adagio though
This is just flawless! :)
Fucking amazing, tear-jerkingly lovely performance!
During all that NIGH ON IMPOSSIBLE pointe work her foot LITERALLY STAYED LIKE A BLOCK OF GRANITE THROUGHOUT!!!!! I don't claim to be any authority on ballet, but I'm ONLY JUST getting my jaw back in place after it went through the floor!!!! I don't think EVEN Margot Fonteyn managed to stop her pointes from wobbling during certain parts of that solo!!!
In fairness that could be, in part, down to the way in which the shoes were designed during her career.
Does anyone know if the design of pointe shoes has changed significantly since Fonteyn's time in order to offer the dancer more support?
Her charisma just wants to make me get up and dance with her as well I don’t know how but ya
the best of best!
Absolutely beautiful
The best rose adage......
Yeah, I guess if you like ballet by the way of stripper central...it's good.
D moment she came out her gracefullness shook me to the ground
Balance!!
Amazing!
Great, Mariinski!
she reminds me of Nadejda Pavlova
I know absolutely NOTHING about ballet and I would never say this woman isn't one of the world's greatest ballerinas, but I don't particularly find her captivating to watch. I've seen ballerinas who look like they're floating. Their movements look so fluid and relaxed. When I watch this woman it feels stiff to me. Like I feel like I can see the work that goes into it, instead of it looking effortless as it looks in some other ballets I've seen. But that's just my uneducated opinion!
Truly beautiful
She's beautiful
There are three active(!) principals ballerinas in Mariinsky: Somova, Scorick and Tereshkina. I think that Victorya Tershkina is one of the best ballerinas in the world. But by my opinion Novikova is better then Somova or Scorick... But she is mother of three children and only first soloist.
