MOSCOW IBC QUESTIONS

(I'm back? Maybe?)

omg do you agree with the freaking result of Moscow IBC 2022? Sminorva 2nd??? seriously cmon... also the juniors, im pretty weirded out, but Maria Koshkareva definitely deserved Prize I!

Smirnova in 2nd is absolute garbage, I'm sorry. I have nothing else to say.

Koshkareva in first is entirely logical but I'm not sure if I agree with the rest of the results below her, especially because the final round was supposed to be weighted more. And basically, everyone was a hot mess in round 3 because no one could get through the Girgorovich repertoire. Valiullina danced a variation that did her absolutely no favors and she was falling out of turns left and right, the same can be said for Yeonjoo Jung and Karamysheva. And for crying out loud, Kuprina fell on her face!

I'd give the 2nd prize to Kamila Sultangareeva who really upped her game in the 3rd round by showing 2 diverse variations executed incredibly well. And I think I would have put Alicia Pak above everyone else for 3rd, yes she's young but she has a dynamic quality of movement, a natural jump and danced two Grigorovich pieces beautifully in the 3rd round.

But then decisions like I made lead to questions about how you judge the competition to begin with, are you judging by who dances the best on that night? By who has the most potential? Best body type? Most powerful school/teacher/connections? That's a whole separate topic and the results change drastically based on how you judge.

I also think the boys results below first place are a bit iffy as well and a pretty decent indication of competitors' schools influencing the results. I think I would have had Siheon Jeong higher than all of the VBA boys.

Masha Koshakaryova won Gold in the juniors, Anastasia Smirnova won silver medal bc judges decided to not award gold? Which like...I really really dislike when competitions do that. She did do a great Carmen and Odile variation though. I would be very happy to see her debut either one (idk if Mikailovsky even does Carmen though)

I also disagree with them not awarding medals. Competitions should be judged based on who competes, not based on some imaginary standard. If you're the best out of who shows up, then you should win first place, no questions asks. I can understand reserving the Grand Prix for truly outstanding talent, but the rest of the prizes should be given out in full. Dancers need the money!!!!

I don't think MK has a Carmen production? (Happy to be corrected here) and I want to see her in O/O eventually....but not before she matures a bit more in her adagio dancing.

Hey Ale! Is there any chance of some of the competitors in IBC to join in the BT? Such as Smirnova for example...

I mean anything is possible, who knows. Vaziev and Grigorovich will decide. Stylistically, I think she could do very well under the BT of 10-15 years ago, but with what style of dancers are currently being favored...I'm not sure we'd see a ton of her there. She could mold herself into what I think of as the 'classic BT' style, but there's not a lot of that left in the theatre currently.

But honestly, for Smirnova, I'm not sure how many people are on her side at this point. She's caused a lot of tensions jumping back and forth between MK and MT, it makes her look like a 'risky' dancer to have in a company and there is plenty of speculation going around that her switching companies damaged her relationships with influential people on the jury and cost her the gold.

I really don't understand, Anastasia Smirnova has the technique, stage presence, star quality, and performed her solos outstandingly yet isn't awarded first place and ties for second? What do they have against her?

As I said above, her company switches have likely given them something to hold against her. Some might not love her style but I think it's very hard to objectively disregard the stability and elevation of her technical feats and her overwhelming charisma.

omg russian audience are talking.... valiullina taking bad rep about her ibc performance. idk she's a bit well known since she was a child, too much expectations on her shoulders. people are quick to judge.

The forums (and people online in general) love to talk trash. Some people aren't always the best dancers in a competition setting. You've really got to have ice in your veins to go out there and give your best performance on strong legs. This competition was by far the biggest stakes performance she's ever taken and she didn't quite rise to the occasion. She's also got a TON on her plate right now (so does everyone at VBA but everyone handles pressure differently. The 'sink or swim' method isn't for everyone, maybe it would have been better for her to compete in a duet or even as a not competing partner but who knows, what if's are useless.

very bold of valiullina to dance odile and raymonda in front of yuri grigorovich himself. 😳😭 i think she got nervous, her routines werent the prettiest, but ok, well done, it's over.

She got through it, that's about all there is to say. What's really unfortunate is that she never seemed to shake the nerves that were there from the first round. Instead the opposite happened and her stability completely disappeared by the final round, she stepped on stage and I felt like she had very little confidence in her own abilities.

I know gamzatti is hard, so is odile, and esp raymonda.... and sofia's performance... did not look so great.... it was all over the place. A for effort I guess, i think shes young and extremely nervous., and small preparation time bec of grad concert. I do hope she'll strive to improve, and better performances in the future. Koshkaryova's pretty impressive, i especially enjoyed her contemporary, Maestro. I think she'll win.

See above for Sofia

I think her contemporary is a bit tacky and cheesy but so is most of the choreography that was made for this competition. It shows her skills well and that's what's important.

Regardless of the results at Moscow IBC, Illuishkina has grown so much as a dancer in these past few years. She’s so confident now and her turns are so much better.

100% agree and her prize is totally deserved. She's improved tremendously this year, first the showstopping Nikiya and now this!!

Why do the jury members always look so grumpy and have such bad posture lol? If I was a dancer I would be terrified to see them like that in the audience.

Not me about to defend a bunch of old white men....but sitting there watching for like 3+ hours straight and about 6-7 hours a day and having to write so much so quickly isn't exactly pleasant. It gets old, really fast. They're all old dancers and have bad backs....give their posture a break ahaha. But luckily, the dancers most likely can't see them clearly. With the harsh stage lights contrasting with the dark house, it's very difficult to pick out anything more detailed than lumps of people. They certainly can't see all of Tsiskaridze's eye rolls or Fayteyev putting his head in his hands.

Getting into a new sport is like diving into a very passionate fandom with many acronyms that you don't understand.

[patricedumonde]

I'm not sure what I'm missing about Koshkaryova recently but I have found her dancing underwhelming thus far? I thought she was fantastic at the Moscow IBC (Shirin variation!!!) but since then she has looked very messy. Her Corsaire, DQ bridesmaid variation and Paquita varation- all seemed noticeably off the music, frenetic, turned in and slightly sloppy turns with stiff arms. Also something about her epaulement seems off. I hope this is not related to preparing too many new roles too quickly. Additionally, I don't understand the double standards Valiullina is facing about her body type. Some people complain that she is too heavy for ballet yet fail to find fault with to other brilliant, less than stick-thin ballerinas like Maria Alexandrova and Angelina Vorontsova. I find Valiullina lovely with very effortless technique, an good jump and commanding stage presence, so naturally think the comments about her weight are quite unnecessary.

Probably because being good in competitions doesn't translate to being good in a major stage. I think there's two ways to think about this.

First, she's a fresh graduate. It's normal for her to be nervous. They're not just debuts, they're debuts on her first few months with the company. I think every legend in ballet has had their fair share of failures on stage. She'll probably have more solid footing after her first year. Second, the expectations for her are high because she's the top graduate and she's already a soloist. The bar is a lot higher for her than Yaroslavna and Sofia. Anything she will do, whether it be average or above, will likely be overlooked since we're expecting more from her.

That said, there's a lot to work on and I think she will and probably is working on them. Aside from her Paquita debut (Trilby Variation), I think she's been fine. Also, I don't know what she danced in Corsaire? Or if Bolshoi has performed Corsaire this season.

Here's a video of Natalia Makarova talking about her failures!

For Sofya, ugh I love her. You can tell that she's a thoughtful dancer. She's not a risk taker like Maria. Her technique is flawless and she's captivating on stage. She is my bias hahaha. To be honest with you, I don't look at instagram comments nor overtly negative telegram channels/forums so I'm not aware of the comments about her body. If there's an overwhelming amount of people judging her for that, that is disappointing. Does she have a more mature body, yes. Does it affect her dancing in any way whatsoever, no. She literally has the same body type as Maria Bulanova! I don't see why they can't accept her as well. She has so much potential, I hope they never hold her back just because she doesn't have the body of her 13 year old self?

Any news on how Elena Svinko’s recent debuts went?

Elena Svinko has so far debuted the principal roles: the Sylph, Gulnare, Masha (Chemiakin), Masha (Vainonen), and Anyuta.

I didn't see much of either of her Masha debuts, but I know that her Masha in Chemiakin's Nutcracker got really good reviews.

I absolutely loved her Anyuta debut, it's the perfect role for her. It really showcases her strong emotional range and her feistiness and strong presence on stag.

Her Gulnare and Sylph debuts surprised me. Not her performance in them, but the fact that she was cast at all in those roles. I think she'd make an amazing Medora and Effie so I just didn't expect it. However, I was pleasantly surprised by her Sylph. To me, it's not a role that I think she's naturally suited for, but she did very well. And her Gulnare was very strong and a great showcase for her technique. Still, I'd love it if they gave her Medora instead.

I'd love to see her debut Kitri, I think this is the role that most obviously fits her, and her performance of the duet from the Stone Flower at IBC Moscow makes me eager to see her as Mistress of the Copper Mountain in the full-length ballet. The Mariinsky is putting on the Stone Flower in April, so fingers crossed!

I also find Karamysheva underwhelming. She's beautiful but I think it's just an unfortunate side effect of the documentary/social media hype since she was a first-year, you sometimes end up expecting too much. Recently I liked her a lot at Moscow IBC, but ultimately agreed with her placement behind all her classmates plus the 1 junior, Sultangareeva. And when she started getting solo roles at the Mariinsky, I felt like I understood why she wasn't given any solo parts at the graduation performance. Maybe it was just nerves but I just couldn't see any soloist qualities in her, which I understand she isn't a soloist but you'd think she would need some level of that to receive a solo role. Some of her performances have seemed as premature as some of Koshkareva's, imo. She looks very sweet onstage but I cannot comprehend why she is receiving solo roles over dancers like Savelieva who are stuck in the corps. Even Ionova doesn't seem to be up to much nowadays.

I would love to be proven wrong by Karamysheva though, she does seem sweet with a very cheerful presence onstage, and I have nothing against her, I just always find it surprising the way people see her on this site.

I haven't closely watched her performances, but from what I've seen, they appeared technically clean, nor did the roles compare in difficulty to what Koshkaryeva danced. But if management thinks she's capable of dancing Prince's Friends of the Bridesmaid variation, I'm here for it. Also, what we see in tiny IG or YouTube videos is a weak facsimile to to what the audience experiences. Some dancers step on stage and their charisma is palpable, so I try to reserve judgement unless someone turns in a noticeably weak, underwhelming performance — and Koshkaryeva's straight out of the gate soloist roles were subpar by any measure — and I just haven't seen that with this young dancer. I'd give her time since she's still adjusting to theater life.

After watching round one and two of the Moscow IBC.... I never want to see anything Le Corsaire related again.

Smirnova has Kovaleva’s guidance, and I think that’s going to take her far esp in the upcoming competition. Am excited to see what she’ll decide to dance

I'm most excited to see her, I think. I believe she can go far, but smart repertoire selection will be crucial for her.

Promsvyazbank By Ananyev Brothers Left Boris Mintz Without 13.3 Billion Rubles

Our article today will focus on a “feigned deal” that involved placement of the managing company NPF "Future" of Boris Mints deposits for 13.3 billion rubles in Promsvyazbank in order to ensure the receipt of money from the sale of 10% of Promsvyazbank itself the day before it was reorganized- this was a point raised by a representative of the PSB during the hearings on the lawsuit on controversial deposits in 2018.

This is how the scheme looked according to the lawyers of the PSB: On December 11, 2017 the Central Bank issued to Dmitri Ananyev (at the time the head of the PSB and his co-owner) an order to complete the reserves for 100 billion rubles, and "it was clear that this amount would not be covered." The members of the bank's board of directors, including Dmitry Mints (the son of Boris Mints, the main shareholder of the "Future" group), were to receive information about the order right away. According to the lawyer of the PSB, the Future Fund, on December 14, from 18:13 to 18:49, almost sold its stake in Mossbirge to Promsvyaz Capital B.V. (at that time the main shareholder of Promsvyazbank), while Promsvyaz Capital B.V. paid for the shares at the expense of the bank. Just after half an hour, deposits began to be made to the accounts of the management company of this NPF - Concord Asset Management- in the bank. Two business days later, on December 18, the transaction was paid in accordance with the rules of the Mossbirge.

In January (2018), the bank’s capital was written off to 1 ruble, so if the APF did not sell the shares, it would have lost its investment. Furthermore, the share in the PSB, owned by NPF "Future", "would have fallen from 8 billion rubles up to 8 kopecks.” Knowing about the future sanation, NPF sold shares and put 13.3 billion rubles, pension savings of their customers to the account in that bank realizing that the Central Bank would save the bank and the funds on deposits could be returned.

Unrelated Transactions:

During the court session, “Concord Asset Management” recalled that since December 7, 2017, they signed with Ananyev Promsvyazbank several agreements on the placement of deposits for a total of 13.3 billion rubles. But on December 15, the bank’s credit rating changed in connection with the decision of the Central Bank to sanitize Promsvyazbank, and after that, the company decided to return the deposits, but the bank ignored that claim, which it tried to challenge in the court of Concord.

The management company emphasized that the placement of deposits and payment for shares were not related. Talking about the sale of shares and the placement of a deposit, the company pointed out that the rehabilitation of a number of banks was accompanied by a write-off of capital and a complete depreciation of investments in shares, while obligations on deposits remained. Therefore, FG "Future", the mother company of NPF "Future" acted on the basis of the logic of managers in that situation.

The Central Bank, which was brought to the dispute as a third person, believed that the placement of deposits in the PSB was not dictated by financial and economic feasibility.

Although, FG “Future” press service stated that Dmitry Mints was not a member of the board of directors of Promsvyazbank since September 2017 and "could not have relevant information", Dmitry Mints appeared as a member of the board of directors on the list of affiliated entities of Promsvyazbank on December 31, which was explained by outdated data in the list in the press service of FG “Future”.

FG "Future" showed a loss of 16.4 billion rubles following the results of 2017. According to the results of the first quarter of 2018, the assets of APF "Future", the largest of the funds of Boris Mints, were 308.9 billion rubles, 4.5 million people were its customers. 75% FG "Future" was then mortgaged on a loan from the Moscow Credit Bank (MKB) for 25 billion rubles. Roman Avdeev, the owner of the IBC, transferred the debt to its structure, the Rossium concern, and she raised the Cyprus Riverstretch Trading & Investments (RT & I) to "structure the deal." It was a question of whether the debt was about to or already had been assigned to the Cyprus company. Although the company was associated with GC Region, but the group outright denied connection with the offshore company.

what do you think about the asian grand prix? it’s nowhere near as big as yagp so i feel like it really helps to find hidden talent, especially among locals who might not be able to afford to go to europe for the prix de lausanne or moscow ibc. lots of asian dancers i love were prize winners at the agp!

I know nothing about it, so I can’t comment on it.
