Too young. Doing just fine in Germany, thank you.

There was a terrific livestream this evening at 6 pm of grangalaporlosninos.org, a benefit put together by Julio Bocca's foundation. Many artists contributed. I am sorry, but I don't have detailed information on who/what/when. Around the 22:30 minute mark, Simone dances "Allure," the solo made on her by Demis Volpi. Beautiful piece, powerful dancing. She mentioned on her Facebook and Instagram pages.

Juliet replied to cubanmiamiboy's topic in Miami City Ballet
Alas, Simone Messmer did not dance Saturday or Sunday. Lauren Fadeley did the Company B โI can dream...โ role for all three performances. -
Your sources? "Punters" embraces a rather large range of the audience spectrum.......

I agree about the high cost of parking at KenCen........lately, I drive to the Metro and take it to Foggy Bottom.

and they wonder why they aren't selling tickets? ONE week, and they throw R & J at us. So stupid. Especially given the Martins debacle, why not program Coppelia, or some such?

Perhaps the move up in the theatre was at fault, but: Lauren Fadely danced the ballerina role in Walpurgisnacht both Friday and Saturday nights. She is pictured above. Simone Messmer does not dance Walpurgisnacht. She is 5'5" and not, by any stretch of the imagination, bulky. The gypsy and bride costumes she wears are long and heavy. They almost completely obliterate the dancer's movements. The lighting does not help, the solid dead white of the bridal dress calling attention to the fabric, rather than the dance. Jeanette Delgado looked stunning in her bridal gown and it le

I found the first act bobble less of a distraction (given that it was a debut on opening night....) and the mad scene a bit more nuanced than "tepid." It may have not played well to a large house, and perhaps it was more an unravelling of a young and sensitive spirit than a mental destruction painted with broader strokes. The second act continued with the same delicate, entirely loving characterization---a perfect portrayal of Emily Bronte's "the loving spirit lingers long, and would not pass away" ... I think that Giselle works best if one views the ballet as a whole, after se

I agree----my old video is fast losing it's grip on life..........I keep hoping......

Yes. She has done Myrtha (wonderfully), but not Giselle.

NYCB Fall 2012 Gala: Costumes by Valentino
Juliet replied to Kathleen O'Connell's topic in New York City Ballet
I believe that the selections from Eugene Onegin ballet is indeed by Martins. Here is the schedule for next season: http://www.nycballet.com/ticketing/2013/rag.html -
Did anyone go to the matinee today (Saturday)? Murphy, Matvienko, Messmer. I did, but am interested in others' opinions.......... I think that Simone Messmer was superb----very understated, well thought out, nuanced, technically and physically beautiful.

Little Humpback Horse "Pearls" variation- costume question
Juliet replied to wallis's topic in Discovering the Art
By "sheath" I assume you mean a short, flippy dress in a soft georgette, chiffon or other fabric that moves. A soft crepe or georgette is appropriate, or a double georgette if modesty is an issue. You can use several layers of colours if the fabric is thin enough.....movement is key. Silk is best, and you don't need much so cost is not as much of an issue. Be certain to use AB crystals, rather than clear, as for this variation the illusion of moving light underwater is important. Classical tutus are generally not appropriate for pre-teenagers, unless they are unhooped, or short and fluffy -
Sad, sad news. Rest in peace .......
