”Your artistic career is marked by remarkable creative achievements and outstanding artistic discoveries. A brilliant choreographer, a talented teacher and founder of the unique Moiseev School of National Dance, you have made an enormous contribution to the achievements of Russian and world culture. Today, just the same as in the past, each performance by your legendary company invariably takes place in front of a sold-out crowd. Spectators in different continents admire the masterly performance, perfect technique and emotive expressiveness of dancers who are surprisingly good at transmitting the unique nuances of the cultures of different peoples“.
