Beautiful ballerina! I saw her in Swan Lake and loved her performance. She is also a kind and humble girl, she signed autographs for everybody and made photos with everybody asked her after the performance! That was a beautiful evening :)
Agree. Especially Esina was only a corps de ballet when she left MT, not the best student in her graduation, is younger than any of the current principal ballerinas and first soloists (except the more undeserved Skorik), and is only a principal in a secondary ballet company in Europe with occasional guest experience in troupes equal to MT or Bolshoi.
Друзья, вчера великая Ирина Колпакова сказала после спектакля, что Есина очень ей понравилась, что она прекрасная балерина и в Саду она была великолепна!
Novikova, Kolegova 'Raymonda', Kolegova 'Sleeping Beaty' except dream scene, Evseeeva Kitri, Somova Giselle were spectacular of this season. Le Corsaire? Vika on Bolshoi TV was definitely spectacular with superb transiton, musicality and effortless turns!
There is one thing you have to admit - she really matches another Mariinsky star, Skorik. Oh, sorry, I forgot to switch off my sarcasm. To be serious - she looks exactly what she is. A guest.
I APOLOGIZE WITH THE UPLOADER BUT BEING ME A KIROV FAN SINCE MORE THAN 42 YEARS REALLY SUFFERS WATCHING A SO LOW LEVEL CAST ON SACRE STAGE OF GREAT MARIINSKY SO JUST JOKED A LITTLE WITH FRIENDS .VIVA GREAT KIROV
I do not understand this comment at all. Yulia Stepanova's legs are not "heavy" - they are beautiful. All of her lines are beautiful and harmonious and actually far more so than those of Esina. Esina does not have perfect form at all.
I also think Ivannikova is lovely here, why no one is praising her here? She is not at all inferior to Esina, and personally I prefer the Gulnara here.
I have nothing against Esina, but if the Mariinsky is going to hire a Guest Principal then it should be a world famous dancer. I don't think Mariinsky dancers would be able to complain if Zakharova or Cojocaru were hired as a Guest Principal, but it is sort of a slap in the face for the Mariinsky to hire someone who is not famous and put her at the top in front of hardworking and very talented Mariinsky dancers.
Just because you didn't go to Vaganova or you did but don't dance w/ MT doesn't make you not as good as those who do.There are amazing schools & companies all over the world.In other parts of Europe(POB perfect example) and America-great comapanies and schools here!I know everyone has different opinions and that is fine but Mariinsky is not the end all of ballet, they have good dancers like every other company. Going to vaganova and being in MT does not automatically make you the greatest ever!!
It is very possible that even great artists are pressured into saying something she does not firmly believe. Many great artists speak in favor of many other ballerinas as well, but their comments are always deliberately omitted by the press for political reasons. Not long ago great artists even gave Skorik 2nd prize at Moscow competition, even if she was clearly not competent and not even at her personal best.
well i can add the ability of turning everything they touch into adagio. though Skorik is a disastrous double turner, this girl is more natural single turner.
So what do you see she has in common with Skorik? For me it's similar lack of musicality and energy, stiffness, making poses without doing anything interesting between them. Anything to add?
youth Stepanova was very good in Medora but it does not mean Esina is not so amazing! Esina after 6 years on stage became great master and she looks like really Leningrad school in dance. Even you love youth Stepanova a lot you have to see she has no so perfect form as Esina! lines of Stepanova' legs is not so good. (Too heavy for looking (view) for example,) AND I ASK YOU TO WRITE NAME OF ESINA RIGHT
I just don't understand why MT thinks it necessary to have a guest principal ballerina at all. They already have so many principals and first soloists who are far superior to Esina, and who do not dance nearly enough performances.

Wonderful from both. Thanks for uploding.
Ольга Есина - великолепная балерина. Красивая, женственная, музыкальная. А какие позы!
ME TOO APLOGIZE THE GENEROUS UPLOADER. as a long time Kirov fan, it's hard to survive this situation without crazy jokes.
I just saw her in Paris in July. She was spectacular which isn't something i can say about most MT dancers.
Agree. Especially Esina was only a corps de ballet when she left MT, not the best student in her graduation, is younger than any of the current principal ballerinas and first soloists (except the more undeserved Skorik), and is only a principal in a secondary ballet company in Europe with occasional guest experience in troupes equal to MT or Bolshoi.
There is no ballerina like Esina in Mariinsky ballet now. so many principals and first soloists, but not so good.
I agree with everything you said.

Le Corsaire? Vika on Bolshoi TV was definitely spectacular with superb transiton, musicality and effortless turns!
agree her invitation as principal guest is unexplicable.
There is one thing you have to admit - she really matches another Mariinsky star, Skorik.

zombie ali sinks when ivkin or latypov or every other guys jump. great closing performance for the siking MT!
I also think Ivannikova is lovely here, why no one is praising her here? She is not at all inferior to Esina, and personally I prefer the Gulnara here.
can you undrestand what uploader says ?,l hope she undrestand we joke to not cry

Finally, you come to say the name! i admit. i admit. i admit!
A guest, a stranger in paradise?
Was she in a gala, or guesting with POB, or was her Viennese company appearing in Paris? What did she dance?
outch! that one and that one, i believed they already collected their pension along with bora. one i mentioned should be an assoluta in Azerbaijan.
great ballerina

It is not truth, russianballetvideo! Esina was amazing student in Academy!

ideal partner for zombie ali',being catatonic is a great opportunity.
So what do you see she has in common with Skorik? For me it's similar lack of musicality and energy, stiffness, making poses without doing anything interesting between them. Anything to add?
А я просто присоединяюсь к мнению Колпаковой. Думаю также.
are you joking? l undrestand you like esina but she is far from certain levels.
youth Stepanova was very good in Medora but it does not mean Esina is not so amazing! Esina after 6 years on stage became great master and she looks like really Leningrad school in dance. Even you love youth Stepanova a lot you have to see she has no so perfect form as Esina! lines of Stepanova' legs is not so good. (Too heavy for looking (view) for example,)
AND I ASK YOU TO WRITE NAME OF ESINA RIGHT
but being a little catatonic is an amazing opportunity if,as in this case ,your ali is the boring zombie bora.
i think and rethink about farty penchent and come to conclude that Nosina was invited because she is thin and corpse catatonic!
george romero cast director .
I just don't understand why MT thinks it necessary to have a guest principal ballerina at all. They already have so many principals and first soloists who are far superior to Esina, and who do not dance nearly enough performances.
but not all MT 1st soloist can live up to Giselle, Nikiya, Kitri standard. i know one worse than Nosina!
this girl imo is nothing special but is far better than sku imo is impossible being as bad as sku.
skorik silver medal was a shameful page of the usually serious moscow contest.
Respectfully, I disagree. I consider most of the current Mariinsky principals and first soloists to be superior to Esina.
i know that she thinks Esina is great.
