Sergei Polunin & Rudolf Nureyev, A Celebration

  • Not comparing, but celebrating the two legends of ballet. One secure in his place in history, and the other well on his way. ***Please forgive the typo in the text at 2'32. I should know better than to work so late into the night. Sometimes the spark of inspiration refuses prudent release. Of course, it SHOULD read "Giselle" and not "Swan Lake."
    ~
    Rudolf Nureyev / Рудольф Нуреев, in full Rudolf Hametovich Nureyev, (born March 17, 1938,
    Irkutsk, Russia, U.S.S.R. - died January 6, 1993, Paris, France), Soviet-born ballet dancer whose suspended leaps and fast 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 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 (a 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.
    Within a week, he was signed by the Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas and performing The Sleeping Beauty with Nina Vyroubova.
    Soviet authorities made Nureyev's father, mother and dance teacher Pushkin write letters to him, urging him to return, without effect. Although he petitioned the Soviet government for many years to be allowed to visit his mother, he was not allowed to do so until 1987, when his mother was dying and Mikhail Gorbachev consented to the visit. In 1989, he was invited to dance the role of James in La Sylphide with the Mariinsky Ballet at the Mariinsky Theatre in Leningrad. The visit gave him the opportunity to see many of the teachers and colleagues he had not seen since his defection.
    Nureyev's partnership with Margot Fonteyn is one of the most celebrated in the history of ballet. He, at 23, gave her, at 42, a new burst of energy and understanding; she inspired him and helped him settle down.
    ~
    Born in Kherson, Ukraine in 1989, Sergei Polunin / Сергей Полунин is a Russian ballet dancer. Famous for his "once every hundred years" talent, he has incredulous elevation and impeccable technique. From an early age, he displayed glorious dramatic range. Home videos of him as a small boy improvising to Pavarotti are very foretelling. At age 19, he became the youngest ever male principal dancer with London's Royal Ballet company.
    Ballet gained an unprecedented new awareness when he danced in Hozier's viral video "Take Me To Church." People who would never have paid any attention to ballet began to watch the tattooed phenom. He is generally attributed with bringing ballet to the modern common man. Classical, yet cutting edge, Sergei starred in Diesel's "Make Love Not Walls" campaign and has put his mark on many other promotions.

    It is not possible to compare them. Nureyev is ethereal, with a unique elegance and an unbeatable charisma. Polunin has a powerful stage presence, he dances and everything around him seems to disappear. Nureyev is already a legend, Polunin is on his way to becoming one

      like P. I. Tchaikovsky Borodin, Sergei Prokofiev, Rachmaninoff, Mussorgsky, Igor Stravinsky and so more. The Ballet Mariinsky of Saint Petersburg with the dancers Ulyana Lopatkina, Alina Somova, Diana Vishneva... and the Vaganova's School Galina Mezenseva, Irina Kolpakova, Gabriela Komleva, .... The Bolshoi ballet with Vladimir Vasiliev and Ekaterina Maximova, Maya Plizetskaya, Liuvov Kounakova, Natalia Osipova, the bad boy Alexander Polunin, and so on...
      And of course the writers L Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky,...

      Amen, amen. It’s ironic that all 3 gave the same reason for quitting their Russian company: Boredom with the same ballets over and over; wishing to work with different choreographers and styles; and the lack of opportunity to practice their artistic creativity. Also, all 3 expressed a deep desire to help young dancers and all 3 formed foundations. They all spoke of these wishes in almost the same exact words!

    You don’t have to compare, I ll do it for it. Both are great dancers, however Sergei’s moves are light like a feather, so elegant, effortless and graceful
    I feel like Nureyev and Baryshnikov and others had to flex to let the world know that it’s a man in tights dancing. I don’t see that in Sergei. That’s just my option. So Sergei all the way for me.

  • @alexluba1
    @alexluba1 Před 3 lety +3

    Very nice comparison of two outstanding dancers! Both of them could be considered are products of the Soviet/Russian ballet tradition. In my modest, unprofessional opinion. if Nureyev, whom I had chance to see live a few times, called a Prince of ballet, so Polunin will definite could be called Archangel of dance and piece. He is in the air seems absolutely like in the outer space, he is gently soars in the air and always return at the same spot. And during his dance, his soul just shining thru all his movements. Nureyev, and later Baryshnikov, both great technicians, charmed the West, because the level of dance in USSR was much higher than on the west (though both of those superstars left behind at the time at least a dozen on equal them dancers). And, of course, escape of the 'iron curtain' played significant part in their publicity. Now we see Polunin returning to his roots with extraordinary openness and calls for piece in the dangerous world without politics. (Tattoo of Putin was just Polunin's protest on the extraordinary, politically motivated campaign again leader of the country, who just want to rebuild it after dramatic collapse and which gave to the world thru centuries so many talents.)

    I used to like Nureyev and he was my favourite dancer but when I discovered Polunin, I realized he was much more ' complete': his technique, elevation, perfect body and height, facial expression and most of all CHARISMA.
    Now, when I watch this video, I can see several 'errors' in Nureyev and, sorry to say, his height and mainly his legs sometimes seem ridiculously short!

    I attended the Barishnikov highlights concert in Toronto, staged at the O'Keefe Center, on the very night when Mr. B. defected to the West, with the help of Canadian friends and contacts from the dance world. He was partnering that last night with a stupendous dancer, Strutchkova, who the Toronto dance critic, William Littler at the time described as shot from a cannon, so astonishing was her energy and attack on stage. I would agree with the assessment. Strutchkova turned in a mesmerizing performance. The much younger partner, Barichnikov was also highly praised throughout the company's Toronto run. And at the very end of the evening, I arose from my orchestra seat, which was very close to the stage, to applaud the Russian dancers. As fate would have it I was the first one on my feet and my eyes along with Barishnikov's locked instantly.
    It was an eerie moment. However, when it was revealed in all of the newspapers the following morning and indeed all over the world, that Mr. B had defected,, I totally understand the somewhat terrified gaze he sent my way. Two thousand people were seated and I, for a moment anyways, was the only one standing to applaud the company. An evening to remember.
