Bellini Pointe

Such sad news.

I remember in a recent video she was saying how much forward she was looking to the upcoming years rep with Miami so perhaps an injury ? Also welcome to the Forum Azalea !

Yes her videos seem to have stopped . I hope she is keeping well.

Not sure if there is an official name but it looks like it would be at the least painful if not inviting an injury.

Royal Danish Ballet with Napoli for me. First time I have watched it

I wonder who will take her place if they still include the Piece ?

There was no notification given of the exact chosen repertoire n advance of the event.

To clarify the extract chosen was the Swans Waltz from Act 2 ( number 13 in the Score).

I took part in the ENB Swan Lake workshop a couple of years ago at the Colosseum which was very interesting and enjoyable to take part in. Based on the level of Dancers attending the Class and Rep were geared more to Intermediate level of attainment. The Workshop ended with the perhaps one and only (ever) demise of Rothbart in Act Two surrounded by a group of rebellious Swans ! I am reminded after the ending of an ENB Dress rehearsal of Swan Lake in Manchester when,costumed as Odette the Ballerina decided to practice Odile's 32 Fouettes.An interesting sight to see !

The standard of Ballet I have watched there has been high but not exceptional.

Hello . The majority of Northern Ballet School Graduates obtain employment in Cabaret, Musicals and on Cruise Liners. It is less well known for obtaining Classical Ballet contracts.

In the UK Olivia and unfortunately will not be able to travel over next Wednesday. Thank you for the details though .

Thank you Sim . Did you attend the funeral ?

So sad to hear of Kevin's passing. I met him as a result of an ENB Friends event some years ago and will remember him from keeping in touch as a witty, caring and highly talented individual. If there is a public memorial service at some point please can someone publish the details on here?

Yes it is the Overture to Act One of La Traviata by the composer Verdi.

I really hope that he has gone for good Lisa !

Thanks for the update Janet

Loveclassics the last I heard Henri was involved with a Company called Crystal Ballet.

I hope that Mathew Golding recovers well from his injuries .I have watched him in the ENB Corsaire and enjoyed watching his performance.When he signed my programme he came across as a nice friendly and approachable person.I wish him well for his future roles.

I absolutely love the video Melody!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you too Lisa and also to all forum members !

Sadly I know of someone like you mention Kate. Truly Delusional.An average dancer at best who is always saying how good they are and on about these advanced Solo's and repertoire that they study and can dance but are strangely reticent when it comes to actually demonstrating any of these skills when ever they have an opportunity to...

I love the video Melody !

I also hope that all members of the Forums have a lovely Christmas and New Year !
