    Rudolf Nureyev, in full Rudolf Hametovich Nureyev, was born on March 17, 1938, Irkutsk, Russia, U.S.S.R. He died January 6, 1993 in Paris, France. He is buried in the Cimetière de Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, France.
    Nureyev was a Soviet-born ballet dancer whose suspended leaps and lightning quick turns were often compared to Vaslav Nijinsky’s legendary feats. He was a flamboyant performer and a charismatic celebrity who revived the prominence of male ballet roles and significantly widened the audience for ballet.
    Nureyev, who was of Tatar descent, spent his youth in Ufa, the capital of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (now Bashkortostan republic, Russia).
    He began his ballet studies at age 11, left school at 15, and supported himself by dancing. At 17 he entered the Leningrad Ballet School, where he was taught by Aleksandr Pushkin. He was an outstanding but rebellious student, refusing to join the Komsomol (Communist youth organization), disobeying curfew regulations, and learning English privately.
    After graduating in 1958, he became soloist with the Leningrad (St. Petersburg) Kirov (now Mariinsky) Ballet and danced leading roles with its touring company. While in Paris with the Kirov Ballet in June 1961, Nureyev eluded Soviet security men at the airport and requested asylum in France. He said later that the rigidly organized Soviet ballet had limited his opportunities to dance frequently and to perform in a variety of roles.
    After his defection he danced with the Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas and made his American debut in 1962, appearing on American television and with Ruth Page’s Chicago Opera Ballet. Later that year he joined the Royal Ballet (London) as permanent guest artist, but he never became a member of a major dance troupe in the West, preferring to work with various companies on a temporary basis.
    Nureyev became well known as Dame Margot Fonteyn’s favourite partner. Dancing with her, he interpreted such roles as Albrecht in Giselle, Armand in Marguerite and Armand, and Prince Siegfried in Swan Lake. He was a popular guest artist in companies large and small throughout the world. Also working as a choreographer, Nureyev reworked Swan Lake (Vienna, 1964), giving the dominant role to the male dancer. His version of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet (1977) was produced by the London Festival Ballet (now the English National Ballet), and his Manfred (1979) was performed by the Paris Opéra Ballet. In 1980 Nureyev staged The Nutcracker for the Berlin Ballet, and in 1981, owing to a further resurgence of interest in dance in Italy, Nureyev staged his version of Romeo and Juliet at La Scala, with Fonteyn as Lady Capulet. Nureyev’s capabilities also extended to modern repertoires, and he performed in works by Martha Graham, Murray Louis, and Paul Taylor. Graham created the role of Lucifer (1975) for him, and in 1978 Nureyev appeared in the American premiers of Canarsie Venus and Vivace, choreographed for him by Louis.
    Nureyev became an Austrian citizen in 1982. From 1983 to 1989 he was artistic director of the Paris Opéra Ballet. He continued to choreograph for the American Ballet Theatre and the Paris Opéra Ballet even as his health declined from AIDS-related complications. He died in 1993 at the age of 54.

      I was lucky enough to see him dance Albrecht in Giselle with Margot Fonteyn in Golders green theatre many years ago - and later in Romeo and Juliet live. The Fonteyn Nureyev Giselle was a hi-light of my life- together the partnership was unforgettable. He tore across the stage like a wild animal in parts- and nobody could take their eyes off him except when Margot danced, they equally magnetised the whole audience- magic, sheer magic- we cried at the end- we demanded more curtain calls than any other performance ever managed I think- unforgettable and so so beautiful a partnership.

    I had the privilege of seeing Nureyev perform a solo program in NYC in the late 70s. It was awe-inspiring and one of the best performances I was ever to see, even as an old lady now. It is hard to describe his raw charisma and how he was able to enchant an entire audience. There were and are very very few performers who can match him.

    What charisma, he inhabited the stage, he lived everything he danced. Authentic Artist (AA = Alliteration!) Humor card. More seriously, it was a pleasure to see him evolve on different stages, and then, he gave an important place to men in dance or classical ballet. ⭐Rudolf Nureyev 🌟 opened so many doors, brought a thousand graces, gifts and beauties. Talent scout too. A huge stripping down, thrilling choreography, a label or brand in its image: mesh in a unique weft. Thanks to my family, I have followed him since his choice of dissidence. With gratitude for this ineffable tribute to a brilliant Dancer, aside :)) Outstanding ❣ He still lives by his aura, in our memories, by your contributions as well as others. His extraordinary gift, talent, work, his sensitive, fine, feline vision, full of acuity, visionary, innovative on many aspects/plans of "dance", twirl in myriads of atoms which unite in symbiosis, like a waltz of atoms resonating in the universe: )) Free electron, it is among us.

      Thank you for a most entertaining entry (I love alliteration!) and for the kind words as well. I saw him dance when I was honestly too young to really remember much about it. My grandmama brought me so I could one day say "I saw Nureyev dance" and I am beyond beholden to her. Thank you also for the new inspiring image you've set dancing 'round my grey matter. Upon a bit of pondering, I am now convinced that of all the atoms in all the world that make up those who dance, there are those whose atoms simply orbit, and then there are those whose particles prefer to waltz... and those wild, waltzing whirlwinds are the Nureyevs, the Baryshnikovs, and the Plisetskayas of this world. So, thank YOU Joe from Switzerland. =) Pam from Texas.

      @@PamBoehmeSimon My very dear Pam, I am writing to you with the help of a translator because I only speak French correctly. My grandpa spoke Russian fluently. He was a professor at the court of the tsars, and taught French to the nobility, he had to flee during the Bolshevik revolution. He never got over it. He would have been killed if he had stayed. He loved life in Russia. He was a poet, he loved the arts, etc. ... Rudolf Nureyev, Maïa Plisetskaya, and a few others were figures that made a strong impression on me. Maïa Plisetskaya, I've never seen her dance in real life, only on video and before, on TV. As I am very fond of the late dancer Alexander Godunov, I like to see them both dancing. Rudolf Nureyev, my aunt who just passed away was a total fan. She lived on Long Island. She loved the world of dance and she took me to see Rudolf Nureyev dance a few times. Even if she adored him (that's the right word), she told me that in the end, he shouldn't have performed either at the Metropolitan Opera or elsewhere in New York, because it wasn't performing anymore. . Once he was even booed. On the other hand, she told me amusing anecdotes: once, it was a prima ballerina who was completely correct or completely wrong... and Rudolf Nureyev left the stage and never came back. She told me a lot about him. She saw him too much! This gave problems with her husband. Thanks to my grandmother and my aunt and godmother from the USA, I learned a lot about dance, ballet and practiced a little bit. Nothing special. It's fantastic your beautiful humor and that you like assonances, alliterations. I really like to play with words, etc. ... The trouble is that my English is poor. It only works well in French. Thank you very much for looking into my machine-translated writing... It must be special, but it's not as bad as 10 years ago. The automatic translator has improved. With total gratitude for your enchanted parenthesis. I release you because I am at extension :))😃🤩😍💫💓💞✨ I love your marvelous videos. Such beautiful "archives" ! With gratitude or gratefulness, Joe from Lausanne, Switzerland. All the best in Texas I really hope for you ❣

      I can not possibly thank you enough for your gracious comment. I am truly humbled. It is honestly my pleasure to make these videos. I enjoy every second of their creation. In fact, that's why I started making them, for my own sanity. After being diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, so many things suddenly made sense (i had been a ballet dancer for my whole life)... why I no longer had any sense of balance, where my control had disappeared to, why a single turn sent the entire planet spinning, why my once flexible muscles had stiffened, why everything I had worked so hard to attain was becoming impossible... why my entire body was betraying me. I had to find something creative to do that involved no moving and one day after opening a video editor app, it hit me. I could "choreograph" via pixels! I made one silly little video and was overjoyed. So I made more. I uploaded them to my old unused CZcams channel just to have somewhere to keep them. No one was more surprised than I when OTHER PEOPLE started watching them lol. And, here we are today. So, truly it is my pleasure, but the frosting on the whole cake has been people like you, who have been so supportive and so nice, and who have made this the best, most absolutely unexpected adventure I could have ever dreamed of. Thank you again, more than you could possibly know. Thank you. And, huge hugs from Texas. Take care.

      @@lburgess63 Thank you, thank you so much, for your kind words and a truly comforting thought. I had not clearly envisioned that what I'm doing now is maybe not the end of something I lived and loved, but just the next part of what I am to do. How humbling, and wonderful, to think that something I create could do such a thing. And I love it. I love it. This thought. Thank you over and over. Your words have rubbed a clear spot on a window in front of me that was fast becoming smudged and hard to see through. What an honor it would be to even in the smallest way help propagate love and appreciation for ballet and ballet dancers. To help keep alive the legends of our art. To ensure dancers like Nureyev and Baryshnikov are never forgotten by leaving little trails of what they did so that others may find the path to know them. That is not settling... that is soaring. And soaring IS dancing. I owe you big time for this fresh outlook... Thank you for commenting in the first place, thank you for writing back... just, thank you.
