All are great interpretations of this fabulous variation. It is especially striking to see Elena Kabanova perform the authentic opening combination in performance.
Dear Juan, Do you know when this variation was interpolated into Paquita Grand Pas? Who is the choreographer of the now days variation and from where it comes that Kabanova (Vikharev) version is based on original steps or notation? Thank you:)
@@Grunyaprotazova It is not clear to me when this variation was added to the Grand Pas but this might have happend during the turn of the century. The entrelacé variant is still known by various pedagogues today. It very likely that Vikharev and Burlaka have had contact with this tradtion too. I have not seen a notated version of this variation. Todays common Grand Pas de Chat (Grand Jeté developpé) standard opening sequence might have been added as a flying effect in the 20th century, possibly by a particular dancer.
@@GrunyaprotazovaI understand, since I once read that in 1903 when Enrico Cechetti left Russia to return to Italy, they gave him a special gala in which they danced Paquita's gran pas classique and the dancers chose their favorite variations from other ballets for that occasion. I understand that from there the custom of making Paquita's gran pas classique apart with many variations of other ballets was born.
