Maria Koshkaryova (now a soloist with the Bolshoi Theatre)
Queen of the Waters Variation from the Little Humpbacked Horse
(also used as a variation in Paquita)
Vaganova Academy
July 2023
This was from a TV show segment featuring a few of the recent graduates of the Vaganova (Sofya Valiullina, Maria Koshkaryova, Yaroslavna Kuprina, Luca Dobos and Taiga Kodama-Pomfret).
Maria did this variation last year at the Moscow Ballet Competition and won the junior gold medal. She graduated this year and was hired as a soloist to the Bolshoi Theatre. She will debut in Paquita in October. Wishing her all the best!
