Gina, if you want to buy a video of Soloviev, there are two that I'm aware of:

The 1964 film of Sleeping Beauty with Soloviev and Sizova; and

A performance of Grand Pas Classique with Soloviev and Gabriella Komleva (who is wonderful) from Russian Ballet: The Glorious Tradition, Vol. 3. It's no longer available from amazon.com, but here's a link to my review of the video of it, which is actually only comments about my favorite parts of it. The previous reviewer simply listed everything that's on the video. The video is from VAI (Video Arts International), which I googled, but didn't find anything. But if you're interested, we can arrange some way for you to see my copy.

The clip of Sizova and Nureyev was made when they were students. I believe it's their graduation performance.

actually it's the moscow competition in 1958, i think. i usually see it with russian narration over it.

Hello all,

I'm temporarily locking this thread as we have some questions about the copyright of Dropshots' videos. Thanks to those who have participated in the thread in good faith. Stay tuned... I will post an update once this issue is resolved with our Executive Director.
