    What an incredible chance for this talented young dancer ! https://www.mariinsky.ru/en/playbill/playbill/2019/7/19/1_1930

    Highlights Ratmansky trilogy - SFBallet @ Sadler's Wells opening night of Swan Lake - ENB @ Coliseum Matthew Ball in Mayerling Beatrix Stix Brunell and Calvin Richardson in Within the Golden Hour Downlights Medusa (what a waste of talent) Winter Dreams (after Judas Tree last season I start to consider MacMillan as an overrated choreographer...) Hirano in Winter Dreams - how can you cast this type of dancer in a dramatic ballet ? Fumi Kaneko and Daniel Camargo in Don Quixote - where you can see that wonderful technique is not everything...

    which means that, for you, Irmgard and Lizbie, line is the most important thing in choreography ?

    The Defile should be performed twice 😂 It always seems far too short !
  5. MAX
    Why Corrales and not Sambé with Osipova ? now that he is a principal...

    With this news they should change their plans and announce the rest of the promotions today 😀 But the RB press department seems to be on holidays at the moment !
  7. MAX
    what a mess ! 😊 congratulations to him is it the end of the embargo policy ?

    Just read these words from KOH in The Japan Times : Ryoichi has taken on the mantle from Edward Watson as the dramatic dancer of the company. Is this a joke ? 😕

    Melissa Hamilton should have stayed in Dresden !

    Wonderful evening, beautiful company, Ratmansky is a master ! And Sofiane Sylve an exceptional dancer !

    Well I agree with you Sim but I must say that, sadly, Paris Opera Ballet has been unable to maintain some parts of their repertoire (Lifar for instance). They even seem to be a second NDT at the moment by the way !

    Nunez and Cojocaru from artists to first soloists ?
  13. MAX
    and Edward Watson is almost retired no ?

    Fumi Kaneko is at the right position as a first soloist with The Royal Ballet. I don't see her as a principal.
  15. MAX
    No Jurgita Dronina ?

    Yes I am sure it is good for company morale, we can definitely feel a positive energy ! That said I must mention I was a bit disappointed by those pas de deux, they were ok/good but not what I was expecting from those dancers. As if, sometimes, the choice of what they were dancing was too ambitious for them. But it is maybe how one can progress ! Even McCormick and Velicu were very nervous, with a major problem in the adagio. But how talented they are !

    What a shame ! Calvin Richardson was absolutely stunning in tuesday morning rehearsal ! According to the NYTimes Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui was busy working in Munich AND London at the same time and it shows ! Medusa seems so unfinished and the dancers so lost that it is embarrassing for The Royal Ballet (and a waste of time for the audience).

    I am afraid the first cast did not have enough rehearsal time either !
  19. MAX
    After Muntagirov and Corrales, Daniel McCormick seems ready for the Royal Ballet ! Kevin O'Hare can we have him ?
  20. MAX
    Sumina Sasaki will be joining as Prix de Lausanne apprentice.
  21. MAX
    no sidi larbi cherkaoui ?
  22. MAX
    Great news for her but am I the only one to find those videos quite hilarious / ridiculous ? Same or even worse : Claudia Dean !
  23. MAX
    That's very elegant for Nunez...
  24. MAX
    yes you are certainly right Sim !
  25. MAX
    I wonder why KOH is not trying a younger dancer in the company instead of bringing a guest. Joseph Sissens ?
