Outside of America, who are some of your favorite INTERNATIONAL ballet dancers?

Many dancers in American companies are international dancers. Roberto is beautiful. I think you may just like the shorter more athletic male dancers. Tall male dancers dance differently but are exquisite just the same. Just look at Roberto's line when he dances. The don't have the same physic that the little ones like Misha and Angel have. It is a much different aesthetic. I am surprised you haven't mentioned Daniil Simkin. This young soloist with ABT just did his first lead as Basil in Don Q last week, He has an arabesque that most male dancers cannot achieve. Also about 5'6 tall. His technique is impeccable.
