If you search through past Ballet Talk threads, you'll probably find answers in many places. Here are a few places to start: Imperial and Vagonava styles Bolshoi Style Royal Ballet style Kirov/Mariinksy style Royal Danish Ballet style NYCB style La Scala style You'll also find forums devoted to each of the companies you ask about under the European Ballet Companies and American Ballet Companies headings. You might want to add comments or ask questions on one of those existing threads. Link to comment

bart Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 From the perspective of Vladimir Vasiliev: Ballet Review: What do you think about the current state of ballet, for example, about the Bolshoi Theatre?Vasiliev: I don't want to judge. After all, I've been practically torn away from the theater for ten years. So long as the school is there, everything will be okay. the theater can fall apart, but as long as the school exists, it will be reborn. Link to comment
