Baryshnikov in White Nights 1985


Wow! This is the most powerful modern dance I've seen for a long long time. And listen to that beautiful music!! I first saw Baryshnikov in Sex and the City and he's one heck of a sexy Russian then. To see him of 23 years ago actually dancing on stage, is something else entirely.

Bravo. Such perfection, such power, such intensity, such passion, and such ease.

Do look at his Don Quixote and other classical ballet performances. No wonder he is one of the greatest dancers of our century.
