Rih Maria 🧡🧡🧡
Stanley Zampakos “Mr.Z “ my first dance teacher r.i.p 🕊️✨
Balanchine gave her the rights to this ballet when he died.
Thankyou for this! ❤😊
The video is too short. Jenifer didnt seem to be incorporating the corrections.
Oh so fascinating! Please please post more of this, and/or of a performance of Tschai PdD by these two stellar dancers.
Jenifer didn't pay close attention to KARIN.
Never paid attention to anyone really
Having seen Edward and Patty dance this many times I can say that although these dancers are good they just don't have that exciting abandon of the two greats that originated the ballet. Same with the brilliant soloist. Pat Neary and Marnee Morris were both unbelievable.
Wow....Thank you SO MUCH for this....PLEASE post the full version of this AWESOME coaching session! Pretty Please?😊
I'm glad Peter kept Kay on. And having her co-chair the School of American Ballet. That's perfect! I remember how Stephanie Selby talked about her in A VERY YOUNG DANCER--her whole experience, getting an autographed pair of her toe shoes right after the performance. Now as we all know... When dancers are too old to dance (at least professionally), they should have something else to do. When the hoofer can't hoof anymore... All of Balanchine's ballerinas should have a job at NYCB... Including Eddie Villella. Why did he have to up and go to Miami? I wish Peter himself had stayed. The man's soul seemed to belong to the City Ballet...
What grace and charisma Maria Tallchief had even in her 70's! I would happily watch her mark through a ballet just to see her port de bras and exquisite epaulement
Hola, no tienen la grabación de los ensayos que le tomó Alicia a Paloma Herrera que puedan publicarlo?
When I finally took myself to Melissa's NY studio, as I exited the elevator, she shouted from her office, "Roland, where have you been?! I've been waiting for you. !" To be so welcomed into a ballet studio (honored, really) was revolutionary because I had been part of the group of black dancer who would invade segregated studios in order to liberate them. I had met my heroes Melissa and Violette at Maggie Black's studio, where every dancer in the world would show up. She too welcomed everyone, but with Melissa, I was taught everything that she speaks about in this interview. Her students would be snatched up by companies because of the simplicity and musicality of their movement. We loved for her generosity and her temperament. God bless you, Melissa! RIP
The simplest epaulment from her and it's beautiful.
Yes, she was the most dramatic ballerina in the company, she just doesn't make draahma. It's a joy to see her again.
This video was Taped: 1998 New York City, when she was 78 years old. She died on October 17, 2019. Two months shy of her 99th birthday.
Have a good day from productions ideas😊
Vaganova's book talks about the combination of the italian and french schools to make the russian style and that sort of feels like what is happening here. the original, 'grotesque' form of italian dancing at the imperial theatre (as shown by the italians when they first arrived) was much more angular and aggressive than the french school, which i feel is shown nicely by the emeralds and rubies sections.

Anna said Agon is convulated? Really? Not a great word for it, I don't think. Anyway, Mr. Mitchell affected me from very early childhood when I looked at photos of he and Diana Adams in Agon from books from the library. It was shocking to see a dark African American hand on a white hand, believe it or not. I idolized Arthur Mitchell, and Balanchine and Diana Adams. Mitchell is so handsome, elegant, charismatic, wonderful personality, wonderful dancer, beautiful body, refined, funny, fun, and so deeply reverent of ballet and of Balanchine. What a treasure he was. Never forgotten. His Dance Theatre of Harlem was a monumental achievement. p.s. Sound volume is too low. Interviewers need to make sure to have adequate sound levels. But it's so wonderful to capture the great Arthur Mitchell in interview.
I wish Gottlieb would let Kent talk.
When harmony had meaning in ballet!!!!
Jillana ❤
She was the most beautiful dancer in the world...she taught me ballet at North Carolina School of the performing arts!!! She told me once... "You are one of my favorites "... Those were wonderful days at NCSA!!
Except Balanchine made ALL the women lose weight--including Maria Tallchief. There is such a problem with anorexia & drug addiction among ballerinas due to that.
Peter Martins and Suzanne Farrell were amazing to watch absolute magic 💫
Slow movements are more difficult to do (assuming a dancer has petit and grand allegro under control).
How I love these people!
He is so wonderful. And the interviewer didn't interrupt and was so good.
I absolutely loved this interview! GG's complete joy in ballet is glorious!
S.F.'s comments are so insightful and simultaneously so fully embodied! She's uniquely able to illuminate the internal processes that inform her dancing and greatly enhances our own understanding and appreciation of that sensibility as well. Great interview!
This was such a lovely interview! I especially appreciate the low-key interjections of the interviewer, too; she allowed V and C to respond freely and with detail about their experiences, instead of trying to micromanage the discussion.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment - Violette and Conrad enjoyed doing the interview
Her hands!
How I love Violette Verdy!
So wonderful to see and hear Todd. We still miss him
So wonderful to see and hear Todd. We still miss him
Profiles in Pittsburgh Allegheny County PA Black Musical History Month 2023 I was blessed to see the Chocolate Nutcracker Play. This dancer is about being a ballerina dancer. Always making sure the female is dancing and he is there to give her great support in the plays. Hallelujah he was the first. Recognized at the Kennedy Center Love ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 💘 ❤️ 😍 💖
that God someone thought to record at least some of this man's recollections! what a memory for a golden age he had
Two of the most wonderful, available, and unpretentious of people. They were (Violette RIP) and are decent, intelligent people. It is a privilege to have known them.
Thank you for your comment
I love this woman and dancer!!!
Yes! Great-full that we were able to have her participate in the Video Archives project
She makes this interesting to a lay person like myself. i can listen 4ever.
Freddie Franklin was a walking history of dance. Miss him. Astounding to hear that today's Harlequin character was originally made on a girl! Also interesting to hear that protests of the Blackamoor roles surfaced that early. The National Ballet was 1962 through 1972.
