Nureyev is brilliant both as a dancer and choreographer. What a luck that such a talented person escaped his prisonlike country, come to west and could enrich, evolve and inspire western ballet.

Всё безупречно, как любил великий Нуреев - всё есть театр, музыка и танец! А какие декорации, костюмы - настоящее удовольствие смотреть даже через 50 лет...

1.18.09 just look at his wonderful elevation and brilliant landings, and those smooth and fast turns. Ive not seen many dancers these days do that so effortlessly and with such STYLE!! inspiring, thank you Nureyev

Sometimes Nureyev makes me think of a torero in the arena. The greatest dancer I have known.

Dumnezeu ne alină in fel si chip...Rodolf Nureyev este una dintre alinările Sale...o binecuvântare pentru suflet si spirit !

Утончённость, чувственность, музыкальность, грацизность,артистичность исполнения неподвластна никому!Божественный Рудольф Нуреев!!!

Очень интересная режиссура.Р.Нуреев-Гений балета!

Ballet seeks unobtainable perfection except with Rudolph who IS perfect in every way. No one can even walk like Rudolph in this solo he created. Many have tried, but cannot replicate his intricate effortless appearing , gravity defying balance,grace, movement , lightness, & charisma that’s captured thru camara; all eyes naturally follow him bc he’s impossibly extraordinary. Decades of daily practice & work ethic helped to create illusion of effortless- 0 is effortless re ballet.

Бораво Рудольфу!!! Зрители рукоплескали стоя .Удовольствие смотреть танцы Нуриева.❤❤❤❤

Wow! Rudolf Nureyev is the greatest classic dancer of all time!, absolutely fascinating, unique, incomparable, I love and admire him so much!. Many thanks Judith for sharing this jewel!

Браво Рудольфу !Брависсимо!Он гений !❤❤❤❤

I saw him dance sleeping beauty and spoke with Rudolph when I was still in Hartford. He inspired me to continue ballet classes. Spoke with him in Italy too. I admired Karin Kain and Frank Augustyn' bluebird as the best I've seen.

Браво Нуриеву -Гений балета!❤

As I wrote in other comment, Rudy is the best prince Desire of ballet history. This rendition of Sleeping Beauty is faboulous, one of the best I have ever seen in my life long. Thank you Judith

Everyone here is amazing! As you watch, it appears to be most magical! It is very obvious that they paid their necessary sweat, and tears to become what they are!

Who impresses me the most in this production is Frank Augustyn. I did not realise how good he was, so light and fast. Karen was pretty good also but I enjoy watching Frank more.

Nureyev fue un bailarin diferente a toros, abrio un camino distinto al bailarin masculino. Verlo es extasiarse siempre. Ha sido el mejor y mas expresivo en cada sentimiento al bailar cada una de sus composiciones.

Rudolf Nureyev ,essere meraviglioso di luce che per volonta di Dio , sei venuto per ricordarci chi siamo...sia anche doppo cento anni ...e proprio vero che l,amore vince sempre e per sempre !!! Tu lo sapevi !

What a treat. Nureyev (34 at height of his powers) and Tennant (such an expressive dramatic dancer) AND Kain AND Augustyn... with the NBC orchestra of the early 70s led by the incomparable George Crum. Would love to get my mitts on the full list of the orchestra personnel for that year. If anyone has it, please post here!

Min 40,40 Cel mai frumos înclin în fața dragostei ,care poate fi vreodată !!!

Quanta grazia e precisione. E' veloce ma sembra calma.

Браво!!!Рудольф лучший!

Beautiful Rudi. This is wonderful. Thank-you so much for posting. 💜💚💜💚💜💚💜

Breathtaking heartbreaking solo 40:01 ❤❤❤

tchaikovsky my favorite composer as well, always been since i was a child little and i would get emotional listening to his beautiful wonderful music, he was not liked a whole lot bc the man was homosexual and imagine back then in russia how must have been for him, most was hidden but... thank you mr tchaikovsky you are the greatest composer ever lived in my opinion my humblest of opinions

Rudolf Nureyev e divino...e tutto anima ...le nostre anime !

Nureyev

Es fantastico,!!!!!!!!!!!

Uno splendore ! 👏💫💞

I love this production, but this video's half-an-hour too short

Грандиозное!Рудольф Нуреев-уточенность исполнения,?музыкальность ,артистичность,красота стана ,Вероника Теннант-красота,музыкальность-гглаз не отвести от дуэта!Совершенство Мастера и его прекрасной партнерши.!

Maravilloso!no hay más palabras que el mundo no haya publicado.

@10:22 putting that Ricky Bobby curse on the princess Then the lilac fairy comes in with the “don’t you put that evil on her Ricky Bobby!”

Kain's spotting is a marvel to behold.

❤❤❤❤❤🎉

Какой там полунин, рядом не стоял с Нуреевым Ни нежности ни души ,одни шпагаты

Соло Р Нуреева непревзойденны

The ballet world will always be indebted to Nureyev for his long lasting contributions, but ballet technique has improved greatly since this recording. There are moments of brilliance in Nureyev's dancing here, but he's past his prime and I can think of many dancers today who can dance this role far better, dramatically and technically.

so far, the best PDD with the fish dive/lift has been done by Sergei Polunin and Lauren Cuthbertson. i think we remember Nureyev as being better than he was. Polunin outshines him in every way.

Покажите танец Эрика Бруна. У него учились Нуриев, Барышников с-ме Бурнонвиля
