- Perm' ballet. Nadya Pavlova in her 15-s. Sorry for poor sound!
My ballet Live Journal community, dedicated to Alexander Godunov, Nadya Pavlova, Violetta Bovt & other ballet stars (in Russian):

Что за прелесть Надя Павлова.Прошло столько лет, но до сих пор наслаждаюсь ее танцами, чудо и невероятное диво.
Мне выпало счастье видеть Надежду Павлову на сценеБТ! В те времена ещё можно было
попасть в Большой театр! Поразила шикарная растяжка, а отсюда и высокие батманы. Я ею восторгалась всегда. Она ОГРОМНЫЙ ТАЛАНТ!!!
Собираю сейчас все фильмы , фото о Надежде , я с детства её полюбила и слежу за её жизнью, можно сказать фанатка.
Но возможности видеть всё, её выступления не было , а вот теперь , другое дело , с приходом интернета восполнила жажду знать , видеть её силуэт и движения.. Она и сейчас могла бы танцевать , видна ее форма , подтянутость, видимо и мастерство осталось и растет, жаль что только интервью есть , побольше бы, скромность впереди неё, святая балерина, желаю долгих лет жизни ей и её мужу, который её поддерживает.
BRAVO, Nadezhda Pavlova!! A BEAUTIFUL and Lyrical Ballerina🌹🌹🌹 She is Still an INSPIRATION!!🌹
Надежда, ты великолепна! You my love ❤️!
the unique Nadezhda Pavlova, what exquisite line and extensions she had, and a harmony in her dance with both softness and crystal clarity, such a strange and lovely mix. i feel fortunate to have seen her dance and will never forget her, that child-like face with sweet cheeks, the unforgettable Nadia. thank you for this marvellous upload to one of the true stars of the Bolshoi.
You are welcome!
+TheBallet1 me too saw her live with her husband gordeyev ,a golden age couple
Just the most natural and musical talent...saw her dance in 73 or 74...Born to dance for sure...perhaps Ferri and Alina C are her worthy successors....her whole body and soul was dance.....wonderful talent
I remember what a great stir there was, I think in the summer of 1973, when the Bolshoi Ballet came to perform at the Metropolitan Opera House, and also brought along a contingent of students from their school. Most exciting to us ballet students (at least in my circle) were Nadezhda Pavlova and Aleksander Godunov, with his flowing blond hair. She seemed just impossibly accomplished, and such a lovely performer. I think she was 15 or so at the time (could that be right?). Thanks so much for this video.
I thought Nadezhda was trained at the Perm Academy. I don't think she ever attended the Bolshoi school. She joined Perm Ballet as a soloist after graduation, and then transferred to the Bolshoi company. Are you sure she was 15 when you saw her?
Edit: I've done some research and it looks like she toured with "Stars of the Bolshoi" in 1973 while she was still a student with Perm. She was 17 at the time.
Nadia won Second International Ballet Competition in Moscow in 1973.
Very graceful indeed !!!
mille grazie ,Nadia Pavlova!!!
Мне посчастливилось видеть Надежду в «Жизели». Не помню в каком году но помню до сих пор ее воздушный балет Я к сожалению не знаю как сложилась ее творческая жизнь впоследствии Если был Большой театр то мои опасения относительно ее карьеры небезпочвенны
Happy Birthday Nadia !
Bravo post Helga!
I saw her and her husband on tour in the U.S. They were at the Trenton Opera House. She had mystery, and soul. She was the first to developpe to her ears, and she did it with artistry. I saw natural gifts, you are born with those gorgeous feet and her flexibility was astounding. She re invented how ballet steps are danced. Assoluta. She was gracious and charming after perf. I found her stunningly beautiful with a sunshine smile. Ahhh!!! La belle epoque!!!
La belle époque! - right you are, Danny! Her tricks were a kind of ART, not simply some sort of sport activity... then they knew how to do this...
"Reinvented the steps", - you've hit the nail on the head. Her plastique is very unique indeed.
Truly. I read a lot about her, in the "belle epoque" of the last century, but this is the first I've actually seen -- and WOW.... after all these years, I still remember Arlene Croce's brilliant descriptions of N Pavlova and I see that she was right-- the musicality is electric, no tension between the impulse and the execution, and what an imagination-- it's like looking at the soul dancing in a distinctly feminine body, with power, not "consciously" feminine and puss in the corner but free, inspired, glorious. It would be great if some dedicated soul could stitch the footage to the actual music-- though her musicality is such that it would be necessary to fine not only "the music" but that night's performance of the music, since she and the conductor are obviously in synch.
a favourite of mine too! what gifts she had and unique artistry from a young age... unforgettable! she's gesticulating in Melody with Gordeyev a heart-melting performance.
She was brilliant and radiant already at an early age! I have an old article in the magazine (Finnish), which I read yesterday. In this article Nadya is 15 years old. It´s nice to see that she has had a great career. She redeemed the expectations!
Now she is teaching in the Bolshoi theatre.
HelgaMaq Thank you. It is nice to know:)
absolutely genius
Amazing as she was -- more to see her held to film is even better to learn from her talent. I love to see a ballerina use the entire foot going into point and down from point. Pavlova executed her technique well trained here while her releves into and from her developes over and over...beautiful lines and soft technique!
Agree with you! She was born to dance.
E Mitch was going to say she had lovely feet.
I just watched almost full ballet (some corps de ballet removed) La Sylphide with her and very young at the time Nikolai Tsiskaridze from the mid 90s. And then watched her Melody and Don Quixote (found DQ on Amazon, free for Prime members. She was wonderful. She was also wonderful in Giselle and Swan Lake, the first Giselle Tsiskaridze danced was with her in 1997.
Nadya was very special and very famous in USSR in 70-s. She was born to dance, as the famous ballet teachers said. She has graduated The Perm Ballet School in 1974. While at school she toured with the Perm Theater in Moscow, in 15 y.o. won the USSR All-Union Ballet Competition. In 1973 Pavlova had taken the Grand Prize at the International Ballet Competition in Moscow and after her sensational performing on The Perm Opera stage as Giselle and Juliet entered The Bolshoi Theatre.
At 8:26 looks like Nadezhda's family members are watching her from the wing. The girl on the right has Pavlova's signature eyebrows
.
And yes, I agree that at least in early stages of her career, Nadezhda Pavlova was one of the greatest ballerinas of all times
You are welcome!
I love her also.
Amazingly BRILLIANT!!! Oh WOW! Nadia Pavlova looks like she is made of elastic! She is very young here? 17? What happened to her after this age? I have never seen anything like this before. How does Russia produce such GREAT talent?
She was a prima-ballerina of the Bolshoi Theatre for years. But not so unique as in her teenage.
HelgaMaq Thank you very much. So...in her later years she was not so uniquely elastic. That seems to make sense to me.
She was incredible. Can't believe I'm only discovering her now. I didn't realize she was Sakharova's teacher but that explains a lot. Of course, very little info got out of Russia before 1990.
Although I dance as a teen for many year on pointe, there was NO WAY I could compare ANYONE I knew to this beautiful girl at 15. What beautiful lines she has. My instructer was Vala Bovie ( I believe that is how she spelled her last name). She danced many years, her feet were knotted, almost club like. I know some of my toes are not normal looking now that I am older, but naturally no where to her degree. How many previous dancers out there have bad feet now you have gotten old?
@hikari6986 The same person: In Russia Nadezhda is a full name , and Nadya is a nick-name. A lot of her fans remember her as Nadaya, because her best dancing years were the years of teenagers.
her arms are so long, almost as long as her legs, so when she is stretches her arms and legs out on the lift, it looks fascinating..
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
violettrojo You are welcome!
wow. so contemporary.. if u look at the western dancers from the same time... this is higher leavel
Anna Pavlova (1981-1931) had no children.
Nadya Pavlova was born in 1956, so she"s about 57 y.o. now.
👏👏👏👏👏👏🌹
Ella es quien baila en la película El pajaro azul?
Yes. 😊
Back before the marley smoothed the floors,
Before the wraith body standard.
The sprites were rare.
Nice.
¡WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!
Dance-Dance!!
Odd though--The sound seems to be thoroughly out of sync with the visuals, making it seem they're just playing random music (and including those long sequences of that woman sitting and talking, but with no sound of her voice). We see Pavlova performing Giselle's Act I variation, accompanied by slow piano music that has nothing to do with the dance, but a bit later we hear the music to that variation, as she performs something totally different. It's a little weird. But still worth it, to see her dance.
AvalonMorley - this is a common problem on YT, it affects some videos more than others for some reason. There is a video of a movie version of Rossini's La Cenerentola with von Stade, I remember seeing the movie on tv and it was fine. But here on YT, the video and audio are so badly synchronized that you see Act I still while the music of the 2nd act is already playing. Not sure why it happens.
@le2ce Yes, she is
@hikari6986 She was not, but Sakharova's teachering way in these years was based on gymnastic training.
Too bad the sound is so off, otherwise it's a lovely and very interesting video! :)
By the way, please excuse my ignorance, I have not followed ballet, history or through the years. But I notice her last name, was she Anaa Pavlova's daughter or relative. It looks quite a bit later in time than when Anna danced.
«Танцует Надя Павлова» (реж. В. Баранов, Пермская студия телевидения, 1973 г.)
Nadia Pavlova at 17 (not 15).
Неповторимая балерина.
Bailaba mejor que las de ahora? o son ideas mias?.Me aclarais por favor?
Звук сильно запаздывает, трудно смотреть.
Does anybody know if she is the notorious ballet teacher Sakharova herself?
She is a magificent dance but I woud change ym name. No one can compare with the magic of Anna Pavlova. And sometimes the wrong salon piano music accompanies her. And towards the end the wrong music from Giselle.
Does anyone know the piano piece that plays after the 12 minute mark?
Cant be accidental that the audio is messed up this badly on so many soviet era Russian ballet videos.
Дааа Большой погубил много талантов...
Павлова успешно выступала в БТ много лет, ездила на гастроли, репетировала с Семеновой. Премьер у нее не было, ну так и в театре их было мало. Могла перейти в другой театр или уехать, выбрала работать в БТ. Никто ее не губил.
Надежда Павлова могла бы танцевать больше, но танцевала столько сколько давали танцевать.
don't know what happened there gesticulative? should read sublime, ravishing, radiant and unforgettable :)
Can anybody confirm who the partner she's bowing with at 1:55 is?
+Oscar Frame Vyacheslav Gordeev
my favorite friend ANNA PAVLOVA
HelgaMaq Her husband.
That pas de deux reminded me of an old fashioned circus act.
LEGENDARY TEACHER MADAME SHAKAROVA UNFORTUNATLY NO LONGER WITH US ( I SUSPECT SHE DIED AFTER HAVING SEEN HER ONLY FAILURE OXANA SKORIK DANCING GISELLE)
The word "genius" is a noun not an adjective so "most genius" is not good English.
en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/genius
+Mira Gurska I grant you that informal listing. But count the reputable dictionaries that DON'T concede "genius" as an adjective: www.onelook.com/?w=genius&ls=a
A reputable linguist like you should know that Oxford is the most reputable source. It just makes me laugh when someone corrects other people but has no idea what he is talking about. This is what I call sweet arrogance.
Mira Gurska I am a poor creature of no repute. But if I have been able to bring you mirth then I feel my existence has not been in vain. Linguists have noticed a tendency among our American-speaking colleagues to treat any noun whatever as an adjective on occasion, although one might prefer ro apply the concept of a compound noun to such expressions as "genius dancer". The video poster seems to have edited the video title, so our discussion of the syntax is now moot.
I think the word you wanted to use was morphology instead of syntax but at least you were in the same lexical field
