Natalia Posted June 20, 2001 Share Posted June 20, 2001 I came in second for 'Best Spectator' & can only blame it on Yuri Grigorovich. (Just joking! ) The official list that I received on Monday only added 'Best Partner' (Korea's Bon Kuk Lee) among the special awards. The contemporary choreographers competition was announced several days earlier, as all 'competing choreographies' were shown during Round I. The winner, Radu, is probably today's premier choreographer of these 'miniatures' for IBC competitions, e.g., he also won the top prize at last year's Varna IBC for a humorous take on 'Swan Lake.' He is a competition regular & consistently creates clever pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
