Великолепная, незабываемая Ева Евдокимова! Грациозная, невесомая, романтичная, одухотворенная! Браво!❤

How did I miss this?! Simply magnificent, both of them. Possibly the greatest sylph ever.

Really wonderful - I could watch it again and again. Fantastic dancers.

I hardly could believe my eyes: they both danced so good, so exqusite and so fairy like if they were not from this world - Eva truely belongs to the fairy world!!!! She lives la Sylph!!!!

i agree - Eva is the Sylph here, embodies the character so well. and Peter Schaufuss has that danish training

Eva Evdokimova remains a wonderful inspiration. She is still my favorite in the role. An otherworldly spirit she hovers light as air itself. Her precision footwork and exquisite musicality, the delicate and sensory use of her arms, hands and neck.... I have seen nothing better. Thank you for posting this clip.

"Otherworldy" is the right description: I have never, ever seen such a sylph. And all done with small jumps, small extensions, turns that are "unprepared" and just part of the flow of movement. This is pure delight.

She was a true romantic

Vicky K hi Vicky yes, they seem to me ideally suited to their roles here - yes, i used to think as a kid of Bournonville as just light and airy - but it can be strongly masculine too - as shown here.

It is wonderful to be able to see them dance again! This clip has brought many memories!

Jacqui B isn't it! the period style is beautifully rendered - and not just an exercise in museum preservation - it's alive for its day.

Both Peter Schaufuss parents were principal solo dancers at the Danish Royal Ballet and his father Frank my ballet teacher for 6 years.

was it a particularly difficult role to dance?

Спасибо большое за возможность увидеть Еву Евдокимову, это была прекрасная ,удивительная балерина, недаром Галина Уланова заметила её на конкурсе и хотела именно ей дать первое место. Великолепное исполнение, особенное, настоящая Сильфида. Партнёр тоже понравился.

Superbe!

breathtaking ...

I like Peter

Thank you. So beautiful!
