Ostrich Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I googled to find info about this wonderful teacher (surely anyone with both Malakhov and Tsiskaridze numbering among their pupils must be brilliant?) and could find nothing current about him. Where is he, and what is he doing? Still teaching? I hope so! Link to comment
Hans Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Last I heard he was teaching at Stuttgart Ballet's school. He was one of my teachers at the Vail International Dance Festival in summer 1999. Link to comment
vrsfanatic Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Yes, he is at the John Cranko School in Stuttgart. By all professional accounts, a magnificent teacher. Link to comment
Ostrich Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Ah, maybe that explains the reports that the standard of the Stuttgart ballet's male dancers is so high. Does anyone know why he left the Bolshoi? Rather stupid of the Bolshoi to loose him, wasn't it? Link to comment
vrsfanatic Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 He has been in Stuttgart for about 7 years, I believe. He was given the opportunity to work in Stuttgart and he took it. The whys and hows of teachers and dancers relocating may just remain a mystery. He continues to do beautiful work in Stuttgart, as does the entire school. Link to comment
