Story: The Sleeping Beauty ballet follows the traditional fairy tale of Aurora and Prince Desire. An angry, left-out wicked fairy says that Aurora will prick her finger and die on her 16th birthday. Luckily, the Lilac Fairy still has a gift to give and changes the spell. She says Aurora will prick her finger and sleep for 100 years until the prince awakens her with a kiss. Before he sees the real Aurora, the prince has a dream about her, in which we see them dancing together. Afterwards, they meet and celebrate their wedding.
My morning just became a little brighter. It's undeniable, Obraztsova is one the most remarkable, outstanding Auroras of the last decades. This role fits her SO WELL! Such lightness, ease... A cheerful, kind, pure aura and sheer perfection in Zhenya's dancing-fairy figure...
What a remarkable performance, this is Genia at her very best. The clarity of lines, the fluidity of movement, the confidence. It's such an organic whole and still so refined! I'm completely amazed. She's a natural in this role.
the purity is undeniable. classical ballet offers such a unique role in the realm of performance: a chance to present brightness, an alert sensibility and sheer, irrefutable joy.
This was such a welcome break from the drama of Supreme Court confirmations in the US! Genia always puts a smile on my face. I like some of the new Vision scene choreography. Was the choreographer for the more original bits named? Her energy reminds me of a remark I once heard made about NYCB's Patricia McBride: "If there are snakes in the garden, Patti will not speak to them," said of her kindly and positive nature. Thanks for posting!
Why is her last act solo sooo slow? It is supposed to be bright and sparkling not ponderous and dirge like. And I'm not criticising her dancing which is very pretty, but the tempo of the orchestra.

Образцова состоявшаяся балерина Чувствуется что любой образ ей по плечу И в ней ярко выражена вся Школа Русского Классического Танца
why is merkuriev still not a principal...:(
Wonderful performance! Her joy in dancing is so obvious.
Do you know in what year this took place?
Thank you for your lovely comments! I agree! Unfortunately, I don't know when this performance took place.
