corrival Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Can we talk about the corps in Swan Lake? Never, ever has the ABT corps looked better. My wife even said that she, for the first time ever, was impatient with the very good variations and other dancing and just wanted to see the swans again. I cannot recall the corps ever being so together. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually I thought the corps were a bit ragged on Thursday night. And Gillian Murphy not quite up to par, is she perhaps slightly injured? Her right foot/leg seemed a little wonky. The highlight of Thursdays performance was Herman Cornejo as Benno, I wish he had some dancing in Act III. Link to comment
Natalia Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I think ABT has been absolutely right in not making Wiles principal: at the Met lat year she was outclassed by Meunier and Liceica in Ballet Imperial; her Raymonda was a near-disaster. ...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> ahummm....... Seriously, thalictum, I hope that Veronika Part & countless others who deserve promotions get their due soon, too. Link to comment
