Enjoy!
How did I miss this?! Simply magnificent, both of them. Possibly the greatest sylph ever.
Великолепная, незабываемая Ева Евдокимова! Грациозная, невесомая, романтичная, одухотворенная! Браво!❤
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.
Did Eva die in real life
@@gretahassock8914 Eva died in April 2009 at the age of 60.
"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.
Thank you very much for the excellent video!!!Both of them exquisite dancers. Evdokinova

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.
Really wonderful - I could watch it again and again. Fantastic dancers.
imo one iconic cast ,she is one of the best sylph ever and he one textbook james(and many other things)
pediatrapaola This is absolutely delightful. How lucky Canada was to have him for the time we did. They are exceptional together.
she was absolutely lovely ,once l saw her taking private lessons in small studio of dame CLEO NORDI in 78 one of the few then still living ballerinas from pavlova's company eva was so sweet modest and serene. PETER ? what to say? TREMENDOUS TERRIFIC
pediatrapaola - i agree - she embodies the sylph way beyond mere technique - and yes i love Schaufuss, the clean crisp footwork is so needed for the style of this ballet. totally satisfying cast.
John Hall did you knew dame nordi in late 70's ? was that the period that apparently we did the same things two o three days before or after
John Hall from the references in description l was very probabily in audience in august 79
She was a true romantic
yes, and she could embody that on stage :)
It is wonderful to be able to see them dance again! This clip has brought many memories!
Maria de Cuestas hi Maria! yes, a wonderful partnership - hope to find more of them together to upload here.

Hommage
She is still my favorit and beloved Sylphide!💞
mine too!
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.
So very beautiful.
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.
I love La Sylphide; because I danced the role James many years ago.
was it a particularly difficult role to dance?
Superbe!
Both Peter Schaufuss parents were principal solo dancers at the Danish Royal Ballet and his father Frank my ballet teacher for 6 years.
you are lucky to have had that connection :)
breathtaking ...
Thank you. So beautiful!
he was tremendous did you see his corsaire don q bayad ? l saw livehim at his top was terrific
passionballet.topf.ru yes, and the period style so delicately rendered by Evodokimov.
John Hall. Evdokimova is great!! Scaufuss .. Meh!
judith booth judith l saw him live many many times he was absolutely tremendous
pediatrapaola. ....ok.
I like Peter

Breathetaking!!! They dance very lightly with amazing techniques! Eva was teaching by Valery Panov a Russian Master that why she is so good!!! Evgenia Obraszova is now much better than her!!!
yes, blew me away too!
Порхает как мотылек!
