  • Mikhail Nikolaevich Baryshnikov (Russian: Михаи́л Никола́евич Бары́шников; born January 27, 1948),[1] nicknamed "Misha" (Russian diminutive of the name "Mikhail"), is a Russian dancer, choreographer, and actor, often cited alongside Vaslav Nijinsky and Rudolf Nureyev as one of the greatest ballet dancers in history. After a promising start in the Kirov Ballet in Leningrad, he defected to Canada in 1974 for more opportunities in western dance. After freelancing with many companies, he joined the New York City Ballet as a principal dancer to learn George Balanchine's style of movement. He then danced with the American Ballet Theatre, where he later became artistic director.
    Baryshnikov has spearheaded many of his own artistic projects and has been associated in particular with promoting modern dance, premiering dozens of new works, including many of his own. His success as a dramatic actor on stage, cinema and television has helped him become probably the most widely recognized contemporary ballet dancer. In 1977, he received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and a Golden Globe nomination for his work as "Yuri Kopeikine" in the film The Turning Point. Also, he was in the last season of Sex and the City.

    He's the only dancer as a classical musician, that dances "in time". He lands on time, he jumps on time.

    I saw Baryshikov dance when he was a young man recently defected from the USSR to Canada. He joined the Royal Winnipeg Ballet (my hometown company) and I had season tickets. I had no idea what I was about to see that night, and I sat through the performance with my eyes bugging out and my mouth hanging open. He did things that no human being should be able to do. I feel so blessed to have had that incredible opportunity.

      Hi Leslie: FYI - Baryshnikov's sojourn at the Royal Winnipeg Ballet is not included in his entry on Wikipedia. I'm not sure how to do it, but Wiki is open to public input, correction and the like if you want to remedy this oversight.

      в Канаде, и в США в тот период,-балет был намного слабее , чем в СССР) Барышников -был всего лишь одним из солистов Кировского. Были лучше него танцовщики и в ГАБТе, и в Кировском. Когда в США остался Саша Годунов, то уже и Барышников- не столь впечатлял даже американского зрителя. Все познается в сравнение.Если сравнения и выбора нет,то хороший профессиональный танцор - может казаться вершиной) Если бы Михаил не остался на ЗАПАДЕ, то о нем не так много говорили бы и в мире, и в РОССИИ)50% его успеха- успех танцовщика-невозвращенца...

      in Canada, and in the USA at that time, the ballet was much weaker than in the USSR) Baryshnikov was just one of Kirovsky's soloists. The dancers were better than him both in the Bolshoi and the Kirovsky Theater. When Sasha Godunov stayed in the USA, even Baryshnikov was not so impressed even by the American audience. Everything is known in comparison. If there is no comparison and choice, then a good professional dancer might seem like the peak) If Mikhail had not stayed in the WEST, then he would not have been talked about so much in the world or in RUSSIA) 50% of his success is success defector dancer ...

    I saw most of Baryshnikov’s performances in NYC in the 80’s and it was always an amazing spectacle for me. I was and remain a high level gymnastics coach and a 6th dan black belt in karate and Jiu Jitsu brown belt, but I had considered Baryshnikov and Bruce Lee to be the most talented performers alive and I still don’t think they have been surpassed to this day. Watching Baryshnikov display his technical mastery was amazing for me and it gave me a deep and abiding appreciation for the importance of technical execution in order to reach the heights of artistic performance and I carried this as the primary objective ever since while teaching gymnastics, martial arts and to a lesser extent trampoline and some diving teaching experiences where my students ventured into diving from gymnastics or trampoline. And this perspective served me very well. I haven’t seen Baryshnikov performances since that time but watching this video has reawakened my appreciation for his talent and abilities. To me Baryshnikov and Bruce Lee stand out as so far ahead of their time that so far nobody has approached their level of skill as yet. Bravo Misha. Bravo.

      для классического танцовщика хорошей школы- мало)Для современного танца- Михаил подходит больше. В СССР, в РОССИИ, требования к танцовщику классического балета, гораздо выше, чем в Америке. Михаил- был слишком маленького роста, поэтому имел очень узкое артистическое амплуа в балетах.Очень плохо для дуэтов, когда танцовщик ниже балерины. Танцовщик упрощает поддержки и подкрутки. Короткие пропорции тела не позволяют удлинять линию поз, а жесты и движения - смотрятся по-детски.

    When I was a kid, back in the 80s and 90s, Baryshnikov was the only ballet dancer I knew by name and the most famous in the world at that time. Legend has it that even though he was short for a male dancer, he had the highest jumps. It would be great if old videos of his performances were digitally remastered. The video quality is poor for a good reason - these clips are 35 years old at least. But after all this time, it still stands - he IS one of the greatest ballet dancers of all time.

    Despite this, I am immediately moved to say that he is brilliant. He looks perfect. I can't say why, I don't have the expertise. But the word that comes to mind as I watch him is "perfect."

      Ну, не совсем. Танцовщик это в первую очередь - совершенная форма, а Барышникову сильно не хватало роста и пропорций. Пока насмотренности нет - не мешает, но когда смотришь балет часто и ходишь в театр регулярно, то воспринимаешь уже иначе.

  • @maychen4801

    I LIKE him more than Nureyev because his extension is better with a more supple body which makes his landing appear softer.

      Dear Roger, He was so incredible I imagine his partners were completely terrified. He was bound to show up any technical fault that they had because he was so perfectly on balance in every single moment and his lines were so immaculate. You know how actors talk about acting with Meryl Streep? That'll give you an idea. Being on pointe is an amazing skill but being able to jump and then like he does is at least as impressive. Best wishes from a ballet teacher!
