volcanohunter Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 The POB has posted a clip from a dress rehearsal of the original cast of In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated. This bit features Fanny Gaïda and Sylvie Guillem. Filmed 29 years ago, still pretty sensational. Link to comment
cinnamonswirl Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Thank you for posting that. It's electric! I wish they could release the whole thing. The attack evident in that clip was completely missing when the company did the ballet recently (last season?). Link to comment
pherank Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 It's a shame that the video doesn't show the complete ballet - it is indeed a great performance. The music, however, continues to annoy the heck out of me. Link to comment
sandik Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Guillem's moments of stillness are fabulous. Link to comment
