That is lovely, Neryssa - thank you! The link worked perfectly. I find it so hard to believe that we still don't have a biography of this magnificent dancer and spellbinding spirit.

A wonderful clip. Thank you so much, Nereyssa. I wish I had been able to see LeClerq dance. SHE was the dancer people talked about most when I first started attending NYCB later in the 1950s. I love the abandon with which she rushes into the music. She even gives life to Magallanes, not always the quickest or most engaged dancer. Would that every dancer in this part could access that level of joy and risk taking.
According to Repertory in Review, Farrell also danced this part. Does anyone recall her performances. And how they compare to this?

The Town Hall discussion with JD'A is now online (but looks like they cut it down a bit):
