Luke Jennings about the premiere: http://www.mikhailovsky.ru/en/press/media/reviews/le_corsaire_is_a_winner/

On September 8 Mikhailovsky opened the season with new Corsaire staged by Mikhail Messerer. Ekaterina Borchenko as Medora, Leonid Sarafanov as Conrad, Anastasia Soboleva as Gulnare. http://www.mikhailovsky.ru/en/afisha/performances/detail/672653/ Ekaterina Borchenko Pas de deux from Act 2. This is a tape from the last performance - Borchenko was urgently called to replace Perren and she danced with Ivan Vasiliev. Not only that she is taller than him, but they had to perform after a single rehearsal made just before the show. I think they did it well! Le Jardin Anime. This is Ekaterina's top scene! pt 1: pt 2: pt 3: Final love scene (with Ivan Vasiliev): Angelina Vorontsova Variation from Act 1: A lovely dance of "the little corsaire": Pas de deux (with Leonid Sarafanov) Adagio: Variation: Coda: Leonid Sarafanov Conrad's variation: Ivan Vasiliev Other variation:

20 mins from Swan Lake with them... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifB9SBRcqR8

Here the old Mikhailovsky version of Swan Lake (before Messerer), considered the most authentic of all classical productions, the purest Petipa. Recorded in July 2009, it was the last performance.

I just found a DVD of Swan lake with the same dancers here: http://shop.vendio.com/blackivory28/item/2107074420/index.html Someone knows about this site? Is it legal? Seems they sell a tape with the live broadcast from Mikhailovsky: http://paraclassics.com/mikhailovsky-theatre-swan-lake-tchaikovsky-ekaterina-borchenko-victor-lebedev/ Unfortunately the video streaming stops every 2 minutes...

http://www.dancing-times.co.uk/dance-today-news/item/1534 A pair of tickets to win!

Incredible lines and expression!!!

Borchenko as the Queen of dryads, with magnificent Italian fouettes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WW5bAKl2cSM

No. They are announced as the star duet. For sure they will dance no less than 3-4 performances.
