The dance originated in three different sequences created on the upper body. These were translated into leg phrases and combined in a stream of vernacular gesture and rhythmic variation. These performances have been made possible in part by public funds from the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, and the Department of Cultural Affairs of the City of New York. ti I - -- v., ` \ I 'SM."

  • Assemblée Internationale 2009
    ASSEMBLÉE INTERNATIONALE 2009 San Francisco Ballet School San Francisco Ballet and the San Francisco Ballet School were both established in 1933 as a single institution by Gaetano Merola, founding director of San Francisco Opera. Merola recognized the need for a thriving academy that would train dancers to appear in opera productions. San Francisco became the only city in the country, other than New York, to claim a ballet school as an auxiliary to an established opera company. Adolph Bolm was appointed director and ballet master for the Company, which occasionally presented all-dance programs. But San Francisco Ballet truly began to take shape as an independent entity when Willam Christensen became Company ballet master. Two years later he appointed his brother, Harold, director of the School. In 1942, Willam and Harold Christensen bought the School from San Francisco Opera, which could no longer provide financial support to the ballet operation. As a result, the San Francisco Ballet Guild was formed in order to maintain the Company as an independent performing unit. Willam Christensen was named artistic director of San Francisco Ballet, and Harold continued on as director of the School. Harold, like his brothers Willam and Lew, the three men most responsible for guiding the Company and the School for some forty-five years, was American trained. He was the preeminent educator among the brothers who directed the development of ballet in the Western United States for an entire generation. Under Harold’s guidance, the School evolved into one of the country’s finest classical academies. Scholarship programs were initiated and the faculty grew to include numerous prominent classical ballet teachers.
