Mérante Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Prof. Gilbert Mayer entered the Ecole de danse in April 1948, and joined the company on 1st April 1951. Yes, it really was the 1st of April. And he is still teaching. This is almost certainly the lengthiest career in the Paris Opera's history. The "world's record" being held, perhaps, by Marina Simionova, who was apparently still teaching until her hundredth birthday. Congratulations are in order! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
