You can now add Olesya Novikova, one of the very best!

One of the best ballet companies in the world perhaps the best

This is why I prefer the Vaganova Style versus the more aggressive Bolshoi company.

Kim Kimin...Fantastic !

Penso a voi grandi artisti pricipal dancers del Mariinsky siete straordinari ogni volta che vi guardo il mio cuore si emoziona!! Sento di dover dire grazie a tutti voi, perché portando la bellezza in questo mondo un po' triste, un po' matto lo rendete più sopportabile anche per noi spettatori....vi abbraccio tutti virtualmente e ancora grazie, grazie, grazie, meno male che esiste you toube così che anche dell'Italia é possibile ammirarvi e sentirvi più vicini...siamo il vostro pubblico silenzioso quello dei " mi piace", abito a Venezia e sarebbe bellissimo vedervi un giorno ballare alla Fenice. Un abbraccio da Venezia

I shed tears overwhelmed by the beauty of classical ballet.

My fondness for Alina Samova's artistry knows no bounds, as fascinating as all of the other ballerinas are.

tereshkina and novikova and of course vishneva are truly the principal ballerinas of this company (i think skorik is lovely too but not like same level of magic you feel when you see them). they are three dancers i believe will be remembered in history as some of the most memorable ballerinas who still dance today like zakharova and osipova (who is one of my favorite ballerinas and i bet bolshoi kicks themselves to this day for letting her go!). and most of the men are amazing and kimin never fails to amaze me with his float-like jumps and PERFECT turns (although xander is still my favorite because he is so humble and a Godly man and so talented). somova has lovely lines but she lacks strength. i think she may get more accolades than deserved because she is blonde, tall, skinny, and flexible. but when you get past it she is not so like interesting to watch.

To me, Diana Vishneva is a once in a lifetime ballerina. There are plenty of others I like very much, but she is a cut above the rest. Amongst the men, I find Shklyarov an excellent dancer, but overall I like the Bolshoi men at the moment (Lantratov, Chudin, Belyakov)

All outstanding dancers. Love them all very much! Bravo to Vishneva and Shklyarov! Thanks for posting!

Each dancer possesses a commitment to ballet as reflected in their performances. Congratulations to the entire company regardless of rank!!❤❤❤

Браво Мариинский, браво Академия !

I love Vishneva & Tereshkina! ❤️❤️

I love The Theatre Mariisky of Saint Petersburg!!! Its Vaganova's School is the best of all the World where the better ballerinas/es had studied. It's very sad that the Great Ballerina Ulyana Lopatkina 6'snt here noe.... But Ballet Mariinsky Theatre is the Greatest Ballet 🩰 of all the World. Really Great Ballerina s/es had studied here!!! Bravo!!! 🙏🏼👼🏼❤️🤗🦢🩰🦢🩰👍🏼🌟✨💫🎶🎵👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Superb male dancers✨👏

I love Oksana Skoric, she grew so much over the last years, this clip really shows her musicality and passion

Kim and Novikova are my favourite ballet dancers.

Unimagible. Fantastic never watch such a beautiful belle before

Изумительно! Прекрасны все! Школа! Труд! Спасибо!

hooked on watching ballet.

Qué bien que el Mariinsky haya reparado, aunque sea tan tarde, la tremenda injusticia sufrida por la magnífica Olesya Novikova, cuyo sitio está entre estas excelentes bailarinas. Y Kim es verdaderamente impresionante, su técnica es impecable.

Соглашусь, собраны лучшие! Из прим больше всего люблю Викторию Терешкину, из премьеров- Евгения Иванченко, также хорош Владимир Шкляров

Unparalleled ballet! The arms and head of Alina Somova are just exquisite!

Великолепные танцоры! Техника, артистизм совершенны. Браво!

I agree for Okesya Novikova

Wonderful 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷

I often wonder why Russia has so many top ballet dancers? Or because they have a first-class ballet art education system, or their artists have lived in a harsh competitive environment and worked hard since childhood, or their social traditions encourage and respect successful artists.

I like very much Diana Vischneva in the suite Carmen, she is Carmen.🙌🎶🌷🌺 some other outstanding dancers are not in the best excerpt to show how must talented they are.🌚

This performance is vibrant moving

The best!

I loove russian ballet, the best in the world. ❤ Mariinsky but there is something that makes me love Bolshoi even more. Its like.....beautiful Koreva! But , wow here comes Kokoreva and wow! She is better!!. Bolshoi has perfume.

Ahh.... Goddess Diana is back at Marinsky - my all time favorite !

Kim flies. Bravo 👏

Women stronger than some of men.

Где Никита Корнеев? Хотелось бы увидеть его, произвёл ошеломляющее впечатление в Кармен-сюите 17 июля нынешнего года. В интернете очень мало о нём написано, только то, что учился в Штутгарте, хотелось бы узнать о семье, родителях, учителях. Мариинский - жемчужина, здесь особенно впечатлили лёгкая и воздушная Алина Сомова и Кимин Ким, хотя, конечно, все хороши!

Спасибо!

Thank you for the video! I found it difficult to concentrate on the first two ladies due to visual distractions from their large diameter and inflexible tutus. It fit with their turns, but not the jumps or one leg hops. Ballerina #3 was lovely. Her costume was not distracting and she had the beautiful Mariinsky arms and upper body. Ah, Diana Vishneva has not retired. I saw her as a young ballerina in La Bayadere (Los Angeles) and I could not wait for her to come back on stage. As for the male dancers, I am happy to see that Kim has an able equal in Shklyarov. This is a new name for me.

All interesting, but to me Kondaurova and Shklyarov stand out.

와우 좋은 영상 감사해요

I always found it weird that the Mariinsky has such amazing dancers, but orchestras pretty much anywhere else in the world are better. The trumpet during Andrei Yermakov's Don Q sounds like a cartoon kazoo.

Great to see Xander there. A great credit to Skelton Hooper school in Hull where he initially trained.

Вишнева!

Не понимаю логику декораторов... Ну вот красная Кармен на красном фоне, - её там вообще кто-нить увидит из зала?

Why only Solos? The best dancers are partners, not all the solos of competitions of young dancers. The real artist shows mostly in partner dancing.

Терешкина и Шкляров

Alina somova!!!

Xander Parish excellent

Missing Olesya Novikova!

🇫🇷. Des Étoiles de perfection😍😍😍😍😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Ким (12.17 и далее) в "Корсаре" великолепен!!!

I'm rooting for May!

Novikova and Vishneva i like so nich. But anyway no body like Silvi Guillem

Alina Somova is beautiful here, but I’ve been concerned about some of her recent performances. I did not think she danced well on the whole. It’s true she is a little heavier after having a baby, so maybe that’s it. You can see what I mean in the 2020 video of International Ballet Day.

My favorite danger is Natalia OSIPOVA.

Центр мирового классического балета, мощная труппа...

Whats the name of the first variation?

Some Male dancers can't be principal Why the fantastic Sarafanov leaves Mariinsky ? Why take so long time for Novikova to be Principal ?

Thankyou

アリーナ・ソモアさん💕

Примы все хороши. Ксандер Париш сыро и неуверенно, работать и работать. Кимин молодец .Как всегда великолепен Шкляров, на высшем уровне. Остальные премьеры довольно много ошибок, носок не тянут, впечатление среднее.

А Кимин Ким куда подевался, а Олеся Новикова?

Сомова и Терешкина

Where Is Maria Khoreva?

Do we know what Timur's music is?

Олеся Новикова и Алина Сомова the best

I miss Sylvie.

I wish they would promote Kolegova as prima ballerina

Is Vishneva still on the roster? I thought she retired several years ago.

Khorevaaaaaaa??????

Bravi tutti.Io.pero', amo la leggerezza di Alina

VISHNEVA (but not Carmen sorry)

All female dancers.

Ikrrtebon

Semionova, Gilbert, Nagaysha, Ferri, Osipova, Somova in questo ordine.

Это несправедливо! Алине Сомовой в этом видео от силы лет 20, Оксанин кусок с акого то концерта куцый...

Maria khoreva, May Nagahisa, I thought they were with Mariinski and principals, aren't they ?

Only Vishneva and Kim deserve their status as principal dancers. Oh and also the recently promoted Novikova. A lot of soloists in Mariinsky are better than some so called “principal” dancers.

Dancer. But all fécale dancers are very good.

Ermakov looks sloppy and out of shape in his variation. He looks like the kind of dancer we all know so well, the lazy dancer. He dances like he's been cutting out of company class after barre for years. Such a shame.

Fateyev is a HORRIBLE artistic director. And so is Gergiev. They have ruined the great theatre pretty much 😰 0 seconds ago

There's some lovely but pretty boring dancing here. Where's the bravura (apart from Vishneva of course) The very very best dancers 'live' the role. How many of these performers can be said to do that? The Mariinsky prides itself on being amongst the best in the world, but here we see their best dancers not engaging with certain phrases, not finishing off their feet consistently, and (especially the guys) not opening up in the hips to get the desired line. Getting round the stage without falling over isn't enough. How many of these performances does one see and think 'this is a truly special performance?'

boring
