Ivan’s year was eventful.
Luckily he recovered from a dangerous injury he suffered in December 2014 (thank you Muse! ).
He rocked in his debuts in Swan Lake, Ivan The Terrible, Sheherazade, Messerer’s Corsaire, Mozart and Salieri, besides bringing us all the bravura roles we love so much, as well as the gentle ones that some love even more.

He is also a nominee for the “Golden Mask” award
for his Mozart in Mozart and Salieri , well deserved too!!
He launched his own (WOW)site, a new Instagram Page
and a YouTube channel.
AND he got married to beautiful ballerina Maria Vinogradova!!
Happy Birthday to Ivan Vasiliev!
May the future bring fulfillment
of his many dreams –
all of them, one by one!
