  • Extended Interview with Demis Volpi
    Extended Interview with Demis Volpi When the curtains rose at the 9th International Competition for the Erik Bruhn Prize, Canada’s National Ballet School was very well represented on stage. Not only were both The National Ballet of Canada’s competitors NBS grads – Shino Mori and Naoya Ebe- but so were three of the five emerging choreographers whose work was being performed! The Erik Bruhn Competition was created by The National Ballet of Canada in 1988, following Erik Bruhn’s 1986 death. Held every other year, companies with whom Bruhn had a close tie are invited to enter the competition. Dancers must represent the ‘future’ of the companies, they cannot yet be Principal Dancers and they cannot be over the age of 23. This year saw competitors from American Ballet Theatre, Hamburg Ballet, Royal Danish Ballet, Stuttgart Ballet as well as The National Ballet of Canada. This edition of the Bruhn Competition saw the traditional prizes – best male dancer, best female dancer and best choreographer (based on the contemporary performances only) – augmented with new Audience Choice Awards. When it came time to announce the choreographic prizes, NBS had a clean sweep! NBS alumnus Robert Stephen took home the audience choice award for his work for Mori and Ebe, entitled Passacaglia. Winning the prize for best choreographer was fellow NBS alumnus Demis Volpi, of Stuttgart Ballet, for his work Little Monsters. With each of the prizes comes a monetary win, and Demis Volpi chose to donate his winnings to the School. NBS caught up with Demis after the exhilarating weekend to find out more about this spontaneous moment of generosity.

Introduction I. Origines Chantal Lapeyre Parfois, il arrive que certains textes vous soient donnés, comme par une obscure volonté, la vôtre sans doute – mais vous n’en savez rien –, ou par une logique souterraine qui présiderait à la suite des instants ou des jours. Ainsi – hasard ou nécessité – au moment où je réfléchissais aux origines de ce colloque –, ai-je lu ces pages qui venaient à point nommé traduire, en mots lumineux, ce qui peinait à prendre forme au fond de moi et dont je vais citer un petit extrait en en détournant un tout petit peu le sens par une manipulation lexicale : « Je crois que ce qui m’a fasciné dans la danse, quand j’étais jeune et que je suis monté sur scène, c’est le sentiment immédiat que quelque chose de la langue et du poème est, de façon presque inexplicable, lié au corps.

Photo: Cesare de Giglio The Little Matchgirl and Other Happier Tales. Photo: Steve Tanner WELCOME 2016 – a momentous year – in which the world celebrated the richness of Shakespeare’s legacy 400 years after his death. Shakespeare’s Globe is proud to have played a part in those celebrations in 197 countries and led the festivities in London, where Shakespeare wrote and worked. Our Globe to Globe Hamlet tour travelled 193,000 miles before coming home for a final emotional performance in the Globe to mark the end, not just of this phenomenal worldwide journey, but the artistic handover from Dominic Dromgoole to Emma Rice. A memorable season of late Shakespeare plays in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and two outstanding Globe transfers in the West End ran concurrently with the last leg of the Globe to Globe Hamlet tour. On Shakespeare’s birthday, 23 April, we welcomed President Obama to the Globe. Actors performed scenes from the late plays running in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Southwark Cathedral, a service which was the only major civic event to mark the anniversary in London and was attended by our Patron, HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.

  • Bruhn, Erik (1928-1986) Erik Bruhn (Second from Left) Visiting Backstage at by John Mcfarland the New York City Ballet
    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.
