I came across this while searching for a performance of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. I enjoyed the music even more, seeing their interpretation and the Russian crowd’s enthusiastic response.
Ilinykh – Katsalapov, Swan Lake, 2014 Olympics

FABULOUS! Magnificent... I’ve never seen that before. I’ll have to look for WHO beat them as it didn’t possible for anyone to do better!! Thanks.
I miss Dick Buttons commentary during The Olympics not so long ago....
“That was poorly executed”
“It’s as though this person did not practice”
.....too funny....
Found this - will have to watch for them in 2022 in Beijing!
“”Ilinykh and Katsalapov were part of the Russian team that won gold in the new team event in Sochi, and also took bronze in ice dance behind U.S. winners Meryl Davis and Charlie White.
Ilinykh, 19, will now skate with former world junior champion Ruslan Zhiganshin, while reports in the Russian media suggest Katsalapov will team up with Zhiganshin’s previous partner, Viktoria Sinitsina.””
Absolutely mesmerizing. I also searched for the Sochi ice dancing gold winners and had forgotten Davis and White’s fantastic version of Scheherazade. Beautiful.
Wow - that was really great.
Very talented, and I also love the music.
Thanks!
Gorgeous. Thank you!
