Natalia Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I wasn't sure where to place this or whether its been discussed elsewhere. A European friend of mine telephoned to say that the 3rd annual Nijinsky Awards (the 'Oscars' of ballet) were held in Monte Carlo on Dec 18, with the following winners: Ballerina of the Year: Alina Cojocaru Danseur of the Year: Nicholas Le Riche Choreographer of the year: William Forsythe for the work "Deconstruction" Emerging Choreographer: Shen Wei (Chinese-Am. chor'er based in NYC) for his version of "Le Sacre du Printemps" Many ballet 'VIPs' participated, including Suzanne Farrell, acc'dg to my friend. What's the chance that PBS may someday pick-up this telecast? Link to comment
