    Bruhn, Erik (1928-1986) Erik Bruhn (second from left) visiting backstage at by John McFarland the New York City Ballet. The group included (left Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. to right) Diana Adams, Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Bruhn, Violette Verdy, Sonia Arova, and Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Rudolph Nureyev. Erik Bruhn was the premier male dancer of the 1950s and epitomized the ethereally handsome prince and cavalier on the international ballet stage of the decade. Combining flawless technique with an understanding of modern conflicted psychology, he set the standard by which the next generation of dancers, including Rudolf Nureyev, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Peter Schaufuss, and Peter Martins, measured their success. Born on October 3, 1928 in Copenhagen, Bruhn was the fourth child of Ellen Evers Bruhn, the owner of a successful hair salon. After the departure of his father when Erik was five years old, he was the sole male in a household with six women, five of them his seniors. An introspective child who was his mother's favorite, Erik was enrolled in dance classes at the age of six in part to counter signs of social withdrawal. He took to dance like a duck to water; three years later he auditioned for the Royal Danish Ballet School where he studied from 1937 to 1947. With his classic Nordic good looks, agility, and musicality, Bruhn seemed made for the August Bournonville technique taught at the school. He worked obsessively to master the technique's purity of line, lightness of jump, and clean footwork. Although Bruhn performed the works of the Royal Danish Ballet to perfection without any apparent effort, he yearned to reach beyond mere technique.

  • Into the Eye of the Storm Destruction
    tain” overwhelmed by a storm, who eventually dis - covers that “to oppose the storm meant preeminent Into the Eye of the Storm destruction. So he took the opposite course and headed the vessel right into the storm and finally reached the center where it was still and peaceful.” Collins equates this tranquil center with what she calls the “Eye of God”—but it serves just as well as a symbol of her intuitive professional strategy. In an interview in the Seattle Times not included in this book, Collins said of her family, “We didn’t consider ourselves black. … We were well-aware of how black people were treated, but we didn’t bow to that treatment. We didn’t have to overcome inferiority. We had to overcome arrogance.” Desirous of education and stability, committed to excellence in every pursuit, the extended Collins-de Lavallade family paired a remarkable self- confidence with a conviction that dates back at least as far as Anna Julia Cooper’s assertion in 1892 that a woman’s “quiet undisputed dignity…without suing or special patronage” could, by dint of example, elevate the “Negro race.” anet Collins was born in New Orleans in 1917 and brought up in southern California in a Jclose-knit extended family in which, she writes, “We were all encouraged to follow our natural endowments.” Her first ballet teacher was a neighbor, Louise Beverly, who seems to have had some association with Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn’s Denishawn modern dance company, indicated in part by the fact that the young Collins was taught a version of the company’s “exotic” East Indian “nautch” dance.

    PERSONAJES DE LA ALONSO gitanas, españolas, PEDRO SIMON goyescas... El Lewisohn Stadium de Nueva York fue eScenario en agosto de 19W del primer éxito de Alicia Alonso con un personaje español. Ese día estrenó junto a Nora Kaye, Jerome Robbins y otros, la obra Goyescas (1), una coreografía de Antony Tudor compuesta sobre la música homónima de Enrique Granados. El estilo de esta nueva creación de Tudor mereció que se califica­ ra la obra como "un extraño fenómeno dentro del re­ pertorio de Ballet Theatre", y en ella reveló la baila­ rina cubana posibilidades hasta entonces inéditas. Su danza fue desenvuelta en secuencias de elegante femi­ nidad, sin grandes complejidades de contenido, pero estableciendo la imagen peculiar de una maja ajena a pintoresquismos y recurros facilistas. Aparecía una ?,ueva dimensión en la joven artista, que a lo largo de su carrera transmutaría en personajes de honda fuerza expresiva. Tres años más tarde, acompañada por Leónid Massine, fue la intérprete principal en la reposición de Capricho español. Massine compuso este ballet en la década del treinta, en colaboración con Enca.rnación López, !al famosa "Argentinita", sobre una fantasía para orques­ ta y violín de Rimski Korsakov basada en temas espa­ ñoles. Cuando Alicia Alonso lo sumó a su repertorio, la críti.ca comentó el increíble ritmo de su danza, el fuego que nunca vulneraba la forma, las cadencias fre­ néticas, ei taconeo fervoroso, las sinuosidades Titmicas de la línea. Todo se conjugó en ella para plasmar una gitana de reminiscencias goyescas. El ballet Don Quijote, con música de Minkus, es justa.

  • Contribution to Dance (1964-2019)
    VERONICA TENNANT, C.C. Contribution to DANCE in CANADA 1964-2018 During her illustrious career as Principal Dancer with The National Ballet of Canada, Veronica Tennant won a devoted following on the national and international stage as a dancer of versatility and dramatic power. At 18, the youngest Principal Dancer in the company Tennant was chosen by Celia Franca and John Cranko, for her debut as Juliet. She went on to earn accolades in every major classical role as well as having several contemporary ballets choreographed on her. She was chosen by, and worked with the legendary choreographers: Sir Frederick Ashton, Roland Petit, Erik Bruhn, John Neumeier and Jiri Kylian – and she in turn nurtured a younger generation of Canadian choreographers including James Kukelka, Anne Ditchburn, Constantin Patsalas and David Allan. For 25 years she danced across North and South America, Europe and Japan, dancing with the greatest male dancers of our time including; Erik Bruhn, Rudolf Nureyev, Anthony Dowell, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Edward Villella, Fleming Flindt, Peter Schaufuss, Niels Kehlet, Fernando Bujones, Ivan Nagy, Jean Pierre Bonnefous and Richard Cragun. She was blessed with her Canadian partners, from Earl Kraul (her first Romeo), to Lawrence Adams, Glenn Gilmour, Frank Augustyn, Sergiu Stefanschi, Kevin Pugh, Rex Harrington and Raymond Smith (her tenth Romeo). Two of the CBC television performances with Tennant in the title role; Cinderella and The Sleeping Beauty, won Emmy Awards. Her first, in Norman Campbell’s 1965 production of Romeo and Juliet won Le Prix Barthelmy in Monte Carlo. Veronica Tennant gave her farewell performances in 1989 – dancing her signature role in, Romeo and Juliet and in the Gala – A Passion For Dance – Celebrating the Tennant Magic.

    Set in Motion: Dance Criticism and the Choreographic Apparatus By Kate Mattingly A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies and the Designated Emphasis in New Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Shannon Jackson, Chair Professor Abigail De Kosnik Professor Anton Kaes Professor SanSan Kwan Spring 2017 Copyright © Kate Mattingly All Rights Reserved Abstract Set in Motion: Dance Criticism and the Choreographic Apparatus By Kate Mattingly Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies Designated Emphasis in New Media University of California, Berkeley Professor Shannon Jackson, Chair This dissertation examines the multiple functions of dance criticism in the 20th and 21st centuries in the United States. I foreground institutional interdependencies that shape critics’ practices, as well as criticism’s role in approaches to dance-making, and the necessary and fraught relations between dance criticism and higher education. To challenge the pervasive image of the critic as evaluator and of criticism as definitive, Set in Motion focuses on conditions that produce and endorse certain forms of criticism, and in turn how this writing has gained traction. I employ the concept of a choreographic apparatus to show shifting relations amongst writers, artists, publications, readers, institutions, and audiences. Their interactions generate frameworks that influence dance’s history, canon, and disciplinary formations. I propose a way of situating criticism as a form of writing that intersects with, informs, and influences both history and theory. Set in Motion expands discourse on writing by examining the continuities and discontinuities in practices over the course of a century.

  • Interpreting Musical Structure Through Choreography in Gershwin's
    University of Connecticut OpenCommons@UConn Doctoral Dissertations University of Connecticut Graduate School 4-23-2019 Music in Motion: Interpreting Musical Structure through Choreography in Gershwin’s "An American in Paris" Spencer Reese University of Connecticut - Storrs, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations Recommended Citation Reese, Spencer, "Music in Motion: Interpreting Musical Structure through Choreography in Gershwin’s "An American in Paris"" (2019). Doctoral Dissertations. 2172. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/2172 Abstract Music in Motion Interpreting Musical Structure through Choreography in Gershwin’s An American in Paris Spencer Matthew Reese, D.M.A. University of Connecticut, 2019 This dissertation explores the relationship between the theoretic interpretation of music (through analysis of a score) and the kinesthetic interpretation of it (through dance). While compelling choreography often evokes the same expressive qualities as a score, music and dance each have expressive and structural components. This study looks beyond expressive unity to examine how formal elements of a musical score are embodied in a choreographic interpretation of it. George Gershwin’s now-iconic symphonic poem An American in Paris, while conceived as concert music, was almost immediately interpreted in dance onstage. It also inspired larger narrative works, including a film choreographed by Gene Kelly and a musical helmed by Christopher Wheeldon. When a score is written for dance, the logistical considerations of choreography likely influence the piece’s composition. But in the case of Paris, the structural details of the music itself have consistently given artists the impression that it is danceable. Gershwin’s life and musical style are examined, including his synthesis of popular and Western art music.
