Drew Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 The article on Copeland is also being discussed on the Copeland thread under "Dancers"--starting the middle of page 22 of that thread and then into page 23.... Link to comment
pherank Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Another dimension to Misty Copeland - she authored the NY Times review of Toni Bentley's "Serenade: A Balanchine Story": "I have yet to dance “Serenade,” but I felt the spirit of the movements through Bentley’s descriptive prose. She weaves in impressive detail about the actual technique of ballet, articulating the dancer’s physical experience for the reader. Turnout, she writes — “the rotation of both legs from the hip sockets in opposite, outward directions, simultaneously” — is both the “core” and the “central contradiction” of classical ballet." https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/10/books/review/serenade-a-balanchine-story-toni-bentley.html Will there be more articles from Ms. Copeland in the future?
