    Don Quixote Ticket Information: English site not ready as of 14 Sep, but ticket ordering in English is for all but 17 November performance. Tickets may be purchased online at: http://boxoffice.bolshoi.ru/eng/sales.html Site instructions: If you don't have an account, register for one. If you have one, login. Scroll through the calendar until you see the month of the performance you want to attend. For the performance, select either "in picture," which will show you the theater with the available seats represented by colored dots, or "in table," which will allow you to choose tickets by price and section. Select the dot(s) for the seats you wish to purchase or check the seats from the list, and click "Add to Basket." Review the summary and confirm the order. Once confirmed, you'll get a confirmation number. Choose the payment method. If "cash" is an option, you must pick up the tickets within the time it says on the site, or they will be released. (Usually within 3 days.) If you choose credit card, you will pay through the ASSIST site (which the Mariinsky also uses). If your card has gone through, the confirmation page will show this in red type at the top of the page. Print the "confirmation certificate" from the confirmation page, and bring it with you when you pick up tickets at the box office. If you are not also bringing the credit card you used to make the purchase, jot down the last four digits of the credit card on the certificate. New Hall

    That makes a lot of sense, since by far the majority of Balanchine ballets in the PNB repertoire are ones that Russell experienced first hand when working with Balanchine as a dancer, ballet mistress, or stager, before Farrell joined NYCB and was cast in principal roles or during the time she danced with Bejart (Stravinsky Violin Concerto, Symphony in Three Movements, Who Cares?, Duo Concertante). The one "pre-Bejart" role created for Farrell in the PNB rep that Barker didn't dance in the last revival was Fourth Movement in Brahms/Schoenberg Quartet; Imler and Lallone were cast in Farrell's role, while Barker was cast in Kent's role. Was Barker cast in Brahms/Schoenberg when Russell first staged it for the Company?

    This is an extremely bizarre situation. A rock promoter is "inspired" by a classical performance, gives the artist final say over the program, and then cancels the concert because the artist refuses to do a Celine Dion imitation? My favorite line was,

    We look forward to hearing your impressions of this afternoon's performance and what your husband thought. (More importantly, will he come to Seattle next June to see Jewels.) We'd also like to hear about Ballet British Columbia. "That is a whole other topic" is music to our ears, and we hope you'll start it Have a safe journey and quick border crossing.

    Thank you, Minkus Pugni, for taking the time to post the English version of the libretto. It will be a very useful reference for any of us who are able to see the Bolshoi perform this work.

    I just received confirmation from Mr. Yang of the Shanghai Ballet that the Company has given permission to the Pointetown.net site to offer videos of the Shanghai Ballet for download. Links to the web pages on which Shanghai Ballet videos appear may be posted on Ballet Talk. Many thanks to Mr. Yang and to le_corsaire for helping me to contact Mr. Yang.

    Barker has been paired before with Milov, who's a very self-effacing partner. Unless rehearsal time was an issue, I don't know why he would have affected her more in Diamonds than in the other ballets in which they've been paired successfully. Her phrasing seemed more Rubies-esque than Diamonds-like, but I didn't think that had to do with Milov.

    HNB performs September-November -- they're currently touring the Netherlands with an all-Balanchine program -- before the NYCB season starts and during the March/April break, as well as overlapping part of the NYCB. Sylve can be one busy dancer if she chooses to do so.
