Buddy Posted February 5, 2024 Posted February 5, 2024 Once again, my ballet ‘rave,’ Natalie Vikner — France And a very nice, sunshiny fineness and proficiency from this to be congratulated, young prize winner.

Buddy Posted February 5, 2024 Posted February 5, 2024 (edited) Cruising the bottom of the list (the youngest dancers) of semi-finalists, there’s a very nice freshness along with fine ability. This young lady leaves me with perhaps the biggest smile so far. Sofía Davalos — Argentina and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AzRKDOHQJQ And with the same sentiment, may I add from the seniors, one of the big prize winners, also from Argentina. Something in the stars down there maybe. Music -- Joni Mitchell Choreography -- Christopher Wheeldon "If you're driving into town -- With a dark cloud above you Dial in the number -- Who's bound to love you If you're lying on the beach -- With the transistor going Kick off the sandflies honey -- The love's still flowing If your head says forget it -- But your heart's still smoking Call me at the station -- The lines are open" Paloma Livellara Vidart -- Argentina Edited February 5, 2024 by Buddy
Buddy Posted February 6, 2024 Posted February 6, 2024 (edited) Here are a few more. They’re all good, so I’ll rely on my totally personal response, based pretty much on “How do they make me feel?” These are all from the juniors where I continue to enjoy a youthful sense of liveliness. Anna Haidai — Ukraine I think that she has a touchingly, personal manner. When you factor in where she comes from and all the headlines that you read each day, it’s heartwarming to see that this exists as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNcSwhmKTCQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtBiVCKaYOA Viktoria Papakalodouka — Greece I might choose her just because of her eye-catching name. She also has a certain delightfulness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qvkYovHMmo and colorful, Grecian aura. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta4JKTIRZfk Antônia Manrique — Brazil And, yes, another touch of South American sunshine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NctScDJkWsQ and embraceable expressiveness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vox0WB0oDVo Edited February 6, 2024 by Buddy typo correction
