Baryshnikov dances Sinatra and more ( ballet "Sinatra Suits", full version)
Фильм және анимация
Originally broadcast in 1984 over New York's WNET/Thirteen on "Great Performances," as part of the "Dance in America" series Baryshnikov Dances Sinatra and More... film. Mikhail Baryshnikov, along with members of American Ballet Theatre, dance three works choreographed by Twyla Tharp: "The Little Ballet," "Sinatra Suite," and "Push Comes to Shove."
Baryshnikov and dancers of the American Ballet Theatre perform in three ballets bringing Mikhail's technique to new levels and giving him his first opportunity to explore humor in performance.
Here is the one of three ballets - "Sinatra Suits"

Seems everything came together for this masterpiece--choreography, talent, camera work, you name it. Holy smoke!

@@pollutionfreeplanet I basically agree, though. I was always drawn to their classical music and artistry through figure skating and ballet, growing up. It’s exquisite.
Here, Baryshnikov is dancing Twyla Tharp’s Nine Sinatra Songs, which originally premiered in 1982. While it seems like ballet’s opposite, Tharp’s technique requires a strong core and articulation of the feet. This grounds the body to be able to move expansively through space and command changes of direction. From what we can see, Baryshnikov is a true artist who can can mold to any choreographer’s work.

I would say the same about Elaine Kudo!
Михаил Барышников самый лучший , какая пластика, движения!!!!
Такие люди должны жить вечно и не стареть!
Elaine Kudo is STUNNING in this!!!
Elaine is too modest to tell you how incredibly gifted she is.

Elaine is one of the few partners that actually match Misha's ability.
I'm so in love with this ballet! This man and this lady are so perfect! I just love this! The coreography is so inspiring! And it's wonderful to see Baryshnikov dancing over Sinatra! Mindblowing to me! Mrs Kudo is also so elegant and flawlessy good! Great great great!
I just love to see Baryshnikov Dance ! He is such a great Dancer ! He Dance classic ballet like a god , and he dance showdance just as well ! And he is a great actor too !
Ms. Kudo is magnificent! The chemistry is "so right" between them!
Love, love Misha in this. He is such a great actor! VHS recording of this was my treasure for a long time. This is one of his best non-classical pieces! Elaine Kudo is stunning as well.
Timeless, Twyla, Baryshnikov, Brilliant. And kudos to Elaine Kudo. And Frank? Perfection.
Εlaine Kudo is an excellent dancer and a very beautiful lady,but I can not imagine what the whole performance could be, with a partner at the same level of expressiveness as his majesty the Baryshnikov! Ps. Cyd Charisse for exemple...
Шедевр🎉
Спасибо за то, что выложили всю запись целиком. Отрывки интересны, их можно было найти в сети, но целиком вижу впервые. Еще раз благодарю.
This looks like what he performed when I saw him in my town around this time. It was so different from when I saw him as a kid and he did his incredible spins. I will never forget that memory. A beautiful man, a beyond beautiful dancer. We are lucky to get to watch him. Thanks for the upload.
Saw the original T.V. performance and was completely in awe of it`s beauty.....had to wait so many years to see it all again.

Me too. As a just post college person I saw this on PBS and instantly became a Twyla Tharp cultist. Despite having parents and friends who had no interest in such things. Thank god for PBS, at least the 80s version of PBS.
Three of my worlds colliding in the best way ever.
Chic is what comes to mind - loads of style and a dash of irony. The “abusive” section in the middle requires thought, but his chewing gum makes it clear - he depicts an a-hole there.
Still my favorite dance performance of all time
Гений. Без лишних слов - просто гений. Он и музыка - одно целое. Он - душа её, её зримое воплощение. Ни одного пустого движения, жеста, ни одного пустого взгляда... У меня не хватает слов... Он танцует в моём сердце...

Saw Baryshnikov performing in Memphis Tn., years ago! The Sinatra songs and ballet was part of the show. So glad he toured. What talent!
I have never seen a hehind like that in my life. And I don't mean to be disrespectful, he is a wonderful dancer. Could watch forever. Beautiful
Misha the best!!!! I love you
the tension is great! perfect show w perfect music
Misha is wonderful, but I love watching Elaine Kudo
Misha's footwork, the movement, and choreography are wonderful with the perfect voice and music. What a joy to watch over and over again. Thank you.
These two are…..magic……To be sure…..magic……❤❤❤
Fabuloso -La combinacion de LA VOZ y la interpretacion dansada de inigualable Baryshnikov
Misha's footwork is so precise, impeccable. He could spin on a dime. 14:30
Fantástico, nunca visto y no lo han superado, una joya de la danza, memorable para todos los tiempos y todas las épocas. Son los dos una perfección inigualable y serán visto for ever.

Замечательно!!! Великолепный Синатра и чудесный Барышников! смотрела бы бесконечно
Волшебный голос Синатры и его воплощение Барышниковым!
what a great dance and expression! true artists.
Stunning!!
Mikhail Baryshnikov es encantador, y esta pieza... sublime, trascendental.
Fantastic! Something Wonderful in Life!!!
Wonderful.
Absolutely brilliant. He is to dance what Bowie was to music.
Saw it when it first opened - in 1982 if I'm not mistaken. Killed me (as did he, himself, when at the opening night party I brought him something to drink and to eat and knelt at his feet to offer them to him. He is shy enough that he blushed!
Amasing and inspiring people. What a piece.
fascinante
язык музыки - Синатра, язык тела - Барышников. Впервые приняла для себя Синатру после перевода Барышникова
This is such a classic....have loved it for years
Just classic.
MAGNIFICO, SPLENDIDO!!!! CHE BALLERINO!!! BRAVISSIMO MIKHAIL.
I first watched this in junior college and have never forgotten it. Excellent work.
She is so flexible.
Such beauty.. is it a lost art?
Monique Faux Un merveilleux pas de deux sur Sinatra.

bellísimo!
Beleza, sensualidade, perfeição!
KZread needs a ‘Love’ to click. Excellence! ♥️
С днем рождения, Миша 🎉
Muy bello.... desde Colombia
Amazing. Both of them. You don´t get often to see Misha being equally matched by his partner. But in here, he is :) But 13:19 to 13:23 wth, someone forgot to tell him, that this was no ice skating ring and he is not wearing skates. The speed of those chaines is insane!

Thx for upload
Saw this live in Phoenix. Incredible!
Il y a des choses qui ne vieilliront jamais...
F… amazing, mesmerizing
This is why Mikhail left Russia, so he could progress and grow as a dancer and artist in all venues. The soviet produces great classical dancers but anything beyond that , no contemporary, new new works, he had the freedom to grow in amazing works of dance and this is just another outstanding performance between two great dancers 👏 4:28
Amazing!!

Синатра божественен, Барышников прекрасен, но как же тяжела партнёрша! И ноги у неё заплетаются. Про синхрон (особенно в первом танце) вообще плакать хочется.
This guy's level is very high, he has complete control over his body and his movements, it's God's thing
he ;looks so stiff and frank was so mellow

Stiff? Are you joking? You must be, because Baryshnikov practically melts, he's so limber.
Shouldn't that read "Baryshnikov and Kudo dance Sinatra?"

It manages to look silly.Pulled and pushed and falling down and picking up. You might as well have a broom duet. If bodies can do that to some familiar tunes who cares.
