To me he is the PERFECT dancer. His technique in EVERY dance style is perfect. He is the reason I became a dancer. Masculine, strong, passionate, impeccable technique, incredible style & energy. Perfection!!!!
I do love Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. But Barry and Gregory Hines's dance scene was just wonderful in every way.
4:10-4:40 especially, for me, especially delightful. Liza is just invisible when he's dancing.
Это огромный труд. Барышников всего добился упорным трудом, даже увеличил рост. Он гений
he would never have been what he was without the Russian school
@@Aria2990 The Imperial Russian Ballet School didn’t give him talent. He also studied in New York City with American Ballet Theatre and the New York City Ballet also in NYC. His talent and great training made him the dancer he is. 💯
Baryschnikov's form IS perfection! My GOD his dance is divine. You can see the years of training and hard work to perfect his craft and although I adore Liza, she pales next to him. Not that she needs to be ashamed....... her performance is pure Broadway magic nonetheless. Baryschnikov is so gifted and talented but clearly disciplined and a perfectionist in his craft. Divine to watch!
I could watch Baryshnikov dance any time, such a graceful dancer. He floats.
Baryshnikov - perfect schooling! No one can 'overdance' this divine performer!
WOWWOWWOWWOW!!!! This is just more proof that Baryshnikov is a complete dancer. i loved how Minelli and him are just totally giving it all and having a blast.
This was when Baryshnikov was regarded as the world's greatest dancer, and justifiably so. Liza still had it as a performer, before her personal problems derailed her. We shall not see such likes again.
Both fantastic... Mischa, what a dancer! And Liza, what a voice! They both complete each other perfectly!! Love this!
Two superb artists in their prime. Even though Liza could sing rings around Mikhail and he could dance rings around her that's not what happened here. Instead, each used their artistry to compliment the other, and in the process gave us a performance we're not likely to see the equal of anytime soon. Bravo!
Maybe he could dance rings around her, but do remember that dance with the chair she did in Cabaret. That was something.
They just talked the songs..Liza was known for this ..she can’t sing
@@suellenfunk1898 I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not a troll. You really need to expand your knowledge of musical theater. Look up her performances in Cabaret then tell me again that she can't sing.
@@suellenfunk1898 puh-lease 🤣
@@suellenfunk1898😂Лиза - обезьяна! Крупным планом лучше не показывать ее морду
I was in class with him once David Howard was the teacher. He asked me what company I was with. We chatted a bit. I found him to be down to earth. Without any diva airs. Easy to talk to. Very memorable class and day. I’ll always remember
Барышников это космос ,грация ,лёгкость ,музыкальность
The only male dancer who could keep up with Liza and draw your attention away for more than a few moments!
What an amazing dancer he is. Those kicks; incredible!!!
He makes it look so effortless!
@@roxanne_george He genuinely does. I didn’t realise what a good dancer he actually was until I tried to dance myself and learned how hard it is.
baryshnikov is incredible that is old Russia ballet school
I KNOW there was little Baryshnikov could not do, and while I never saw Minnelli actually do classical ballet, I'm sure she had ballet training, and I KNOW there was little she could not do. What a team!!
She was classically trained in ballet among other forms of dancing.
I had forgotten how beautiful they were...He was just incredible, no matter what he did, wasn't he? and, of course, Liza is Liza...I am so glad this is here; thank you to those who made it available!!
Он не умеет танцевать плохо, он не позволяет себе танцевать просто небрежно. В большом и малом он ВЕЛИК!
What a delight to see Misha dance, such elegance, such perfection.
It was easy to be wowed by Baryshnikov, because he was new and and younger (with amazing technique) but watching this, I'm amazed by Liza, who keeps up with him quite well...
He defies gravity, like an angel
Baryshnikov does so much WORK, and puts so much into it... and so much energy, charisma... gives so much happiness, it's amazing, I can't describe it. He is one of my idols, and it takes a lot for me to admire and love someone so much.
Liza is great film and greater Broadway given in her genes from both parents but mostly her mother Judy Garland. Baryshnikov is class and thousands of years of Russian artistic genius through his ballet yet modern American assimilation gives fire he thrives in. Both are wonderful. How I miss the old TV specials and star variety shows which brought all of the worlds great into our living rooms continually throughout the years.
I think this is something that our generation will never experience at all. Thankfully RUclips is a thing now so 30 year old me can watch these masterpiece performance.
Aww…two of my most favorite entertainers of all time, back when to be a “celebrity” you actually had to have TALENT! Love this!❤️💛🧡💙💚💜🤎
My God. He's beautiful.
My friend, the late Verne Langdon worked on this show. He said that Liza was completely down to earth and friendly to each and every person on the set - knowing that they ALL played a part in the finished product. Not any air or "diva" behavior towards anyone.
thank you much appreciated
Yes, and both of them in their prime!!!!!!!!!
I think being friendly and down to earth is part of the diva behaviour! Being mean and shady to other people without any reason is just bitchy (in a bad way) and not nice! Liza is a great diva!😍😍😍
Liza is a Pisces - of course she would be kind and compassionate and not a diva.
Это черта профи тружеников
I was SO in love with Misha.....he is just simply AMAZINGLY talented....and so cute
Baryshnikov’s dancing is so flawless & he makes it look so easy! Liza Minnelli sings so much like her mother! 👏🏻
I agree about her voice.
I disagree about her voice.
@@joannaseligman5973BETTER than Judy!!!
It’s really sad that Liza had so many demons. I understand demons. But I didn’t have that kind of talent to loose. I wish she had been able to conquer them!!
breathtaking! this is the first time one's eyes are just RIVETED mostly on the male dancer........Baryshnikov is more divine than perfection itself. Minelli is the gold band showing off the perfect diamond, Baryshnikov.......this definitely goes down as one of my favourites. Can someone re upload this in high definition please?
Fabulous coreography! Love seeing these two together!
Oh wow! What a fabulous number. Few classic trained dancers are so versatile. FABULOUS ❤
Years ago, when "White Nights" was filmed, MB said he had to learn how to dance all over again; he had never done Modern/Jazz/Tap. He did it beautifully! The "pas de deux" he did with Gregory Hines was magnificent. Also coreographed, these 2 gents made their dance look totally spontaneous!
This is fantastic stuff. I've never seen this until now. Superb artists, pristine performance, par excellence! What a time capsule.
Mikhail had incredible strength and body contol. Completely amazing the talent.
His singing is the most adorable thing on the planet.
Шикарный танцор!!! Не перестаю восхищаться многогранностью его таланта
Just found this, so amazing. I can really appreciate now how talented Liza Minelli was, and they both worked together so well, complimenting each other. Baryshnikov as always impeccable.
She’s still alive so, technically, she’s still talented.
I doubt that she would be able to perform like that now though. I am so sorry that I failed to quantify my comment to your satisfaction.
Los años pasan.....@@missymoppel
What a delight! Seeing these two artists at their pinnacle has made my year! Thanks so much for posting.
Two genious , talented artists together.
More 😊. Need to see more of these great artists in their prime together ❤
Pure entertainment ! Why we don't have this on TV anymore. So much talent creativity. Im sure it took them a lot of preparation to make it that easy.
i am sorry but every time i see baryshnikov dance he outshines whoever he's with. he truly is the best in the world.
It has been said that he doesn't have the grace of Nureyev. Can't say I've noticed meself. The man is a dynamo. A thousand bravos Mr. B. Long may you live.
mark prescott, nah. Nureyev might be more technical but he doesn't have one-tenth of Baryshnikov's stage presence. Nureyev is just a brilliant ballet dancer. Baryshnikov is an ARTIST.
He makes everything look so effortless and it is incredibly difficult! He has a true talent from God there isn't many dancers that can even come in his league!
Soviet school!!! And notice, - it has cost him nothing!!!
To " Jericho" : Sir, you can't compare a classic ballet master, vs a jazz dancer. Liza knew she couldn't " COMPARE" ; THAT wasn't the point. ------------WolfSky9
Baryshnikov steals all of the oxygen out of the room when he performs. Liza usually is that person but not in this fantastic medley of Broadway showstoppers. How did I miss this.
awesome. I read somewhere that he was first inspired to dance by seeing Fred Astaire movies with his mom in Riga. He came full circle....
How appropriate as I feel like Fred Astaire had that same effortless, unlimited dancing talent too.
He reminds me more of Gene Kelly in his actual dancing. The athleticism and power.
Oh Wow! Two of the best performers of all time.
Oh Liza! There's only one of you.... Just like your mother. Magical!
Mikhail - smooth as ever.
5:03-5:21 and 6:15-6:42 are just beautiful. He was so perfect in his prime.
He flies, right?
His ballet and gymnastic training sure show through. I can't take my eyes off him.
The best dancer the world will ever know!
I think Donna was talking about Mikhail Barysgbikov not Liza Minnell. She was good but HE is a legend.
Yes Baryshikov
Mikhail Barysgbikov not Liza Minnell. Yes Baryshikov ????? Incredible...neither of you can spell either of their names! TRY these...Mikhail Baryshnikov and Liza Minnelli. PS...I love Baryshnikov and yes, there was something very, very special about him but there have been a few others who were considered GODs of the ballet in their day. Perhaps you've never seen them dance....try looking for Rudolph Nureyev here....or look up Vaslav Nijinsky! Even Alexander Godunov, a friend, fellow Bolshoi star and classmate of Misha's was a superb dancer...albeit a much larger man at 6'2" tall. You've probably not seen any of them or know who they are.
Kuklapolitan, Baryshnikov is more than just a great ballet dancer. He IS the movement itself. The pure metaphysics of the body, as Joseph Brodsky said. Nureyev was very "cold", even in the "joke dances", and even more so in ballet. Godunov was too "heavy". It is better to talk about Nijinsky as a founder of modern style of dancing, but his dance is not very relevant today. And Baryshnikov - this is for ages. He really is the best.
Sorry, but there is no argument alive that can legitimize the idea that LIZA MINNELLI is NOT a legend. She of course is very much a legend.
There seems no limit to MB's technical mastery, but his key to the stage in every scene is Liza. Amazing. Thanks for posting this. I love RUclips. I am not privy to the wonders of Broadway, and this gives me a taste.
Two absolutely amazing talents in their prime. It's obvious by the chemistry that they were also friends offstage. At the time this was taped, Liza & Misha were hanging out almost every night at Studio 54 along with Calvin Klein, Capote, Warhol, and Halston. All that drinking, drugs, smoking, and sex--and they were still able to get it together for this show ----aah the magic of youth! Dwight Hemion really knew how to produce a stunning TV special.
Que maravilha reviver grandes momentos como estes. Liza e Misha são incríveis e eternos. 🌟🌟🌹🌹
Mr. B is his usual fantastic self here, so versatile.
Oh Liza! You are your mother's daughter!!!!
we are so so so lucky that still can watch this ❤
BIG THANK YOU
look on his legs!!! He is GOD of Dance
isnt he?
Неужели для ведущего солиста балета, эта кабацкая пляска была мечтой?
Да,Вы правы - грустно это!
One of the most enjoyable clips I've ever seen: two monstrous talents.
Потрясающий Барышников!
The moment the cabaret rhythm starts and liza just does her thing…🤩🔥
Not to mention big spender…😍
Two of the best dancers. Saw Baryshnikov dance the Prince in the Nutcracker on Christmas Day. Saw him again with the White Oaks Dance Project and was able to greet him/get autograph. No one has come near his perfection. And Liza, well, she was magnificent. Even her backup dancers couldnt perform like she did.
I have remembered that I saw this tv show when I was a child, now I know why I love dancing, painting, singing... everything, It was because I saw Baryshnikov.
Baryshnikov was extremely agile and very balletic (of course). I don't know that every style of dance is well-served by having this incredibly precise and beautiful quality of movement, but it sure is a marvel to behold. Liza was clearly in her element here.
I think the opposite - imho, his balletic style and precision actually enhances the different styles. It may not fit tradition, but it sure is wondrous to behold.
@@chooseyourpoison5105 👏🌹👏🌹👏🌹❗
Dude...Baryshnikov could not only dance like crazy but carry a tune. Damn, that Russian accent is sexy. Just sayin' ;)
He's sexy as hell anyway.
Glad I found this, fantastic. I miss those days of pure entertainment with great talents.
Something like this makes you realize just how little you have accomplished in life.
Wonderful! I would love to have seen Misha dance with Ann Reinking. ❤️
Какой темперамент!!! Супер!!
Baryshnikov is just THE best to ever put his feet to music, no matter the style. ---------Incredible. ---------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o
был солистом в театре, за несколько лет пребывания в Америке- вот чего добился- играть в мюзикле с лайзой.
Это уж точно. Лайза здесь ярче выглядит, а с ней неплохая - "подтанцовка"...
солистом и остался. параллельно с этим развлечением он продолжал танцевать главные партии в балетах.
в "Кармен" Ролана Пети, например, в том же году.
@@nenarocom Для него слово "Танец" всегда было шире, чем "Балет". И это правильно.
это всего лишь одна из граней его таланта ))
Baryshnikov as alwys was absolutely impeccable on any style he chose to dance in.
Never knew he could sing either.
And holy royal CHRIST Minelli had a set of legs xD Fantastically athletic dancer, but man she had the looks too.
wow broadway today needs talents, real talents! They were both fantastic!!!
Perfection!!! He is completely breath taking in every way. Gorgeous!!!! She is so mesmerizing to watch and her voice. Bravo
Thanks for sharing! Wow, gravity just seems a mere inconvenience to Misha doesn’t it? But, humble in his performance, acknowledging Liza’s mastery of the broadway stage.
What talent...look at that wowza body on Liza and the dancing of Misha is just not human it out of this World x
Carmel Ellis yes
Both so incredibly talented and charismatic. I could watch either of them all day! Of course if I had to choose just one... Mikhail😉
Интересно он был счастлив,после того ,как уехал? Такой талант, таких единицы на все века
I could watch this for hours. Two marvelous talents for the ages. J'adore Misha!
M Baryshnikov is exceptional - Classic. But Liza (singer dancer actor) is more than able to hold her own on stage with this great (greatest?) male Ballet dancer of the 20th century. Liza had phenominal talent, versatility & presence!
I never tire of watching Mikah dance ❤
he makes me happy
Виртуозно, шедеврально, но... В балете он круче в 1000 раз.
Amazing choreography whoever did that.
They make it look effortless, and fun. Great talent, I enjoyed it.
Какая пластика, лёгкость! Просто порхает. А ещё и поёт. Многогранный талант. Восхищение.
He got good school, classical one. Ulanova's technic. For him Brodvey dance, just too easy.
Знаменитому танцовщику приходилось участвовать во всяких кривляниях, чтобы заработать на хлеб с маслом...
I knew he could dance, but WOW!!!!!!!!! He can sing, too! If I got to meet him someday, I would be so very happy!
Met him in NYC after a show he was a bit quiet but did autographs.
liza one of the few who can keep up with him. This is an amazing number
Барышников не подрожаем. Уникальный танцор
baile genial¡ Liza es muy coordinada en los tiempos y Barishnikov tiene un carisma encantador.
¡QUÉ DÚO!!! EXCELENTE PERFORMANCE!!! GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR!!
Мда... великий Барышников пляшет в варьете...🤔
Все движения легки, непренуждённы- талант. Браво Михаил👏
The magic of two big , real stars!!! i just love this video, he is just perfect and Liza oh well, she is Liza!!!
Indeed everything we have always watched is off of the rails. How could we not love him in any way shape and form
...это все? ...мелко, "г-н" Барышников.
Marvellous✨Thank you Liza (with a Z) and Mikhail (with a K). You are with us forever ✨
He's very much alive and still dancing and teaching dance in NY.
@AA-zq1sx
And she's alive too, at 78 free it seems of her demons and the failed relationships - her art and the joy it still gives us are immense.
this remindes me how Liza was such a wonderful dancer,she is an all out entertainer like her Mother.
They're both incredible. It's a delight to watch them.
Total-Class, the likes of which we are so sadly missing today. ----------Mary & I watched this & I loved every moment. MB was a dancer like no one else ; grace, power, & he made it look effortless. The man was awesome, & Liza hung in with him all the way. ----------------------WolFSky9
i love this man.
