    Francesca Hayward, Yasmine Naghdi and Akane Takada can be considered the Royal Ballet's "rising stars". Natalia Osipova has been on the spotlight for a while now, considering she used to be a Bolshoi Prima. She's one of the most famous faces - if not THE most famous - in the company since 2014!

  • @ktellusastory1403

    In the very original dance of 'The Dying Swan' Pavlova was not skinny like the ballet dancers of today, she was sort of plump which was fashionable at the time. Yet, Pavlova had something which is hard to obtain no matter how skilled of a dancer you may be. Pavlova was able to project her emotion into each dance, that is what made her a legendary dancer. Her version of 'Dying Swan' still brings me to tears because she danced like there was a real sense of the struggle between life and death (which in the end there was). Dancers like Lopatkina and Zakharova are excellent dancers in their own right and come very close to the portrayal of a dying swan. This dance is expressive, it doesn't matter your figure so long as you are able to convey the feeling and emotion. Osipova does this well, she has her own style. I think in the Ballet world, we need to remind ourselves to stop comparing one dancer to another, they are each individual and different, perfection is not in technique but in uniqueness.

Natalia isn't a young, green ballerina by any stretch, and she has most certainly only added to the prestige accumulated by the Royal Ballet since its inception.

    She is unique in everything she dances, as she is a real jewel. I'd say the diamond of the ballet world.

    These RB practices are strange. RB records Natalia Osipova and on YT she gives only her rehearsals for the role, never performances on the stage. Sometimes there is a video with her role of Odille 'Swan Lake' - beautiful performance, but it is quickly removed. Natalia Osipova has long been the best ballerina in the World of Ballet, she is the only one who dances so beautifully. Natalia Osipova - very pretty, very shapely and very charming dancer.

That's what makes them both real artists at the top of their game.

    Natalia is a beautiful dancer, but her physique doesn’t really suit The Dying Swan... this ballet requires a very subtle fragility that I can’t see in Natalia. Lopatkina and Zakharova fit this role better, I’d say (but none of them surpass Plisetskaya, in my opinion). Natalia’s talent is much better explored in roles that enhance her athleticism and strength, especially her insane jumps and fouettés!

Fortunately, _there are other excellent principal ballerinas with the Royal Ballet, many of whom I enjoy watching more than I do Osipova, who seems to think every single movement onstage must convey tremendous emotion. She initially tires me out, then I get bored.

      I think lots of people nowadays have missed the point of Fokine’s Dying Swan all together. Please go back to watch the original footage of Pavlova, and what you’ll see is a complete different Swan of the one you’ve been used to see. The real theme of this pièce, is not about the grandeur of the Swan, but is about showing the struggle between life and death. In order to deliver that is required from the dancer a certain expressiveness, sensitivity, sensuality in the movement. This little gem of dance has all the characteristics of a Symbolism poem of Rimbaud, every gestures is a correspondence, each gesture has a colour, which needs to allude, express a range of feelings.

    I would say that yanowsky speaks fluent eurotrash--replete with a patronizing tone that suggests that she is actually capable of judging Osi's performance. Such nonsense is probably why Osi left Russia...

      Osipova actually left Mariinsky because of the lack of repertoire. Yanowsky is a very accomplished dancer. To make assumptions and criticize another figure in the field is insulting. Leave your negativity at home.

    generally, i find her beautiful... but here? no elegance, no cure for the detail...it's exaggerated, the face... THE HANDS!! ... nah! she's always extreme, it's everything about doing and acting, not being, i'm sorry
