Galina Ulanova and Konstantin Sergeyev - Pas de Deux from Act 2 of 'Swan Lake (1953)

This is colour film of Galina Ulanova and Konstantin Sergeyev dancing a pas de deux from Act 2 of 'Swan Lake'. The performance was given at the Bolshoi Theatre in 1953. Unfortunately in the video credits themselves Ulanova's partner is incorrectly identified as Nikolai Fadeyechev. As I’ve just uploaded Galina Ulanova and Konstantin Sergeyev performing this pas de deux in 1940 and the ballerina and Vladimir Preobrazhensky danving it in 1946, it might be interesting to compare to compare Ulanova’s approach to the role of Odette over the passage of thirteen years. Slightly disconcerting (and tricksy?) at the beginning and the end of this footage are plastic tiara-wearing swans - one has a sense of Disney rather than Bolshoi! Enjoy!
