  1. The list and information is a big help, Victoria. Thanks so much. Sorry about the caps-my 63 year old eyes have been having some problems-easier to read what I am writing! Interesting that it comes across like shouting- sorry if I hurt your ears !! Again, thanks.

  2. HELLO EVERYONE-I MUST APOLOGIZE-I WAS GIVEN THE FORMULA FOR PUTTING ACCENT MARKS ON BALLET TERMS-(FOUETTE, RELEVE, ETC.) AND MY"CHEAT SHEET" HAS DISAPPEARED. COULD I PLEASE HAVE IT AGAIN? WHEN I WAS PRACICING IT, I USED TO GET AN ADDITIONAL E WITH THE ACCENT NEXT TO THE ONE WITHOUT, SO I WOULD HAVE TO STRIKE OUT AND BACKSPACE. HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. MANY THANKS, MELBA

  3. Gloria Govrin-what an experience to watch her as Profane Love and feel the temperature rise when she danced Arabian-all those daddies that were dragged to Nutcracker were suddenly mesmerized !! I can still see her flying across the stage in Stars and Stripes. In spite of Balanchine being given the somewhat dubious credit of liking only long thin dancers, he was far wiser than that and recognised and found ways to use extraordinary talent,regardless of physicality. What a loss if he had not found ways to use her. Many artistic directors today would take one look at her junoesque stature (6'4 on pointe, I heard once) and say fuhgedaboudit!! I am eternally grateful to Mr. B. for the privilege of seeing her dance.
