Wow, Sasha just had an astonishing pirouette there. And Angelo is just too much fun to watch. I'm really enjoying the vibe of Ricardo B's class. Seems more lively/relaxed than Felipé's.

Terez Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Well, that was sure fun to watch the grand allegro. Everyone looked so good. I sure have missed seeing these dancers! Link to comment
pherank Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I think the very tall female dancer in purple top with black tights was Isabella Walsh - she was recently profiled in the Fjord Review:https://www.fjordreview.com/in-frame-isabella-walsh/ Carlo is in rehearsal now - so not being in class doesn't necessarily mean the dancer won't make an appearance.

pherank Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Maria is back for rehearsal. She was literally just in Copenhagen. This woman must actually sleep on airplanes. Link to comment
pherank Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Both Frances and Joseph are back to perform today - that should make some people happy. ;) Link to comment

pherank Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I see that there was also a SFB video, hosted by Sasha De Sola, of the WBD 'behind the scenes' setup at the SFB building. There's a crazy amount of electrical cables involved. https://www.facebook.com/sfballet/videos/10155466123731293/ [Warning: the audio levels are very low in this video so you will need to turn your speaker volume up, or wear headphones. And don't forget to turn your speaker volume back down afterwards or you will be in for a rude surprise.] Link to comment

I wouldn't mind quarterly broadcasts, but I know the companies wouldn't like that idea - Mathilde Froustey just posted: "Me after World Ballet Day" Link to comment
Terez Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Oh, hilarious photo! I myself have a bit of a WBD hangover. It was a treat to watch as much as I did - easily double what I got to watch last year - but my head is pretty crowded with ballet and social media interactions now. Time to drop it all and climb back into my cave. Be back around Nutcracker time! ; ) Link to comment
pherank Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I just posted the first links to the archived footage (YouTube) on this thread: http://balletalert.invisionzone.com/topic/42839-world-ballet-day-live-5-october-2017/ Link to comment

You can catch up by going to 2:04:42 in the San Francisco Ballet's 2017 World Ballet Day LIVE Broadcast - Jahna dances in the Annabelle Lopez Ochoa rehearsal. (She can also be seen in the class session).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy-FE7tNQ48 Her first partner has some shaky moments, but things get better with James Sofranko and Max Cauthorn partnering.

Yup -- thanks for the time stamp. I'm working my way through the archive stuff, but have been busy the last couple days. Link to comment
