Two Pigeons Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Very much Kazakhstan's good fortune. I still remember what a glorious ballerina she was. I treasure my memories of her performances. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capybara Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 There is another thread on here which raises the question of what being a ballerina means. To me, Altynai Asylmuratova was one of those who personified the term. The epithet 'glorious' used above says it all. I hope that she will have a happy and fruitful time in Kazakhstan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Newcombe Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I wish her all the very best on her return home. She was quite simply glorious. I will never forget her couple of seasons guesting with the Royal Ballet where she danced all the classics and was simply wonderful as Juliet and Manon. And did she know how to dance Natalia Petrovna. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
