"Ballet of the Bolshoi differs. It differs very much. And it differs in three specific causes related to each other. It's Russian. It’s Soviet. And its artistic director is Yuri Grigorovich. But there are other aspects that are visible in the ballet of the Bolshoi Theater of the new style. They are caused by his own genius (because he is, I think, a great choreographer), and his special historical mission of convergence of the Leningrad and the Moscow Ballet Schools”.
American ballet critic Clive Barnes
