In Balanchine's Classroom

IN BALANCHINE’S CLASSROOM A film by Connie Hochman Theatrical & Festival Booking contacts: Nancy Gerstman & Emily Russo, Zeitgeist Films 212-274-1989 • [email protected] • [email protected] Press contact: Sasha Berman • [email protected] A ZEITGEIST FILMS RELEASE in association with KINO LORBER IN BALANCHINE’S CLASSROOM SYNOPSIS IN BALANCHINE’S CLASSROOM takes us back to the glory years of Balanchine’s New York City Ballet through the remembrances of his former dancers and their quest to fulfill the vision of a genius. Opening the door to his studio, Balanchine’s private laboratory, they reveal new facets of the groundbreaking choreographer: taskmaster, mad scientist, and spiritual teacher. Today, as his former dancers teach a new generation, questions arise: what was the secret of his teaching? Can it be replicated? Filled with never before seen archival footage of Balanchine at work, along with interviews with many of his adored and adoring dancers and those carrying on his legacy today, this is Balanchine as you have never seen him. This film will thrill anyone interested in the intensity of the master-disciple relationship and all who love dance, music, and the creative process. ABOUT GEORGE BALANCHINE [partially excerpted from The George Balanchine Foundation website] Born in St. Petersburg, Russia, George Balanchine (1904-1983) is regarded as the foremost contemporary choreographer in the world of ballet. He came to the United States in 1933 at age 29, at the invitation of the young American arts patron Lincoln Kirstein (1907-96), whose great passions included the dream of creating a ballet company in America.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Roberto Santiago, P.R. Manager Miami City Ballet (305) 929-7000, ext. 1602 [email protected] MIAMI CITY BALLET TO MAKE ITS DEBUT IN PARIS, FRANCE WITH A THREE-WEEK SUMMER SEASON. SEVENTEEN COMMAND PERFORMANCES AT THE THEATRE du CHATELET JULY 6-23, 2011. Miami, FL (Feb. 7, 2011) – Edward Villella, Artistic Director of Miami City Ballet, announced today that the company will climax its 25th anniversary year with an unprecedented three-week season in Paris, France - the company's first visit there. The company’s fifty dancers will present seventeen command performances over three weeks, July 6-23, 2011. They will be dancing at the renowned Chatelet Theater, where in 1909 Diaghilev's Ballets Russes gave their first performances, and where two years later, Petrouchka had its World Premiere. As the sole participant of the 2011 Les Etes de la Danse festival, which has in recent years hosted Alvin Ailey, San Francisco Ballet, and Ana Laguna & Mikhail Baryshnikov, Miami City Ballet will focus primarily on George Balanchine, for whom Mr. Villella starred at the New York City Ballet for many years. Among the eight Balanchine ballets in the repertory – including the world-famous The Four Temperaments and Theme and Variations – are three major works that as far as we're aware, have never before been seen in Paris: the 1951 doom-laden La Valse, to Ravel; Symphony in Three Movements, created for New York City Ballet's 1972 Stravinsky Festival (it featured Mr. Villella); and Ballet Imperial, Balanchine's ultimate tribute to Tschaikovsky and Petipa.

DANCE for a CITY: FIFTY YEARS of the NEW YORK CITY BALLET New-York Historical Society Exhibition Curated by Lynn Garafola April 20 - August 15, 1999

DANCE FOR A CITY: FIFTY YEARS OF THE NEW YORK CITY BALLET New-York Historical Society Exhibition Curated by Lynn Garafola April 20 - August 15, 1999 The labels, wall texts, and reflections complement the volume Dance for a City: Fifty Years of the New York City Ballet published by Columbia University Press in 1999. Edited by Lynn Garafola, with Eric Foner, and including essays by Thomas Bender, Sally Banes, Charles M. Joseph, Richard Sennett, Jonathan Weinberg, and Nancy Reynolds, the book, unlike most exhibition catalogues, does not include a checklist. In revisiting this material, I wanted to evoke the experience of walking through six large galleries on the ground floor of the New-York Historical Society, with the reader enjoying by suggestion and as an act of imagination the numerous objects on display tracing the long history of the New York City Ballet. As I prepare this for publication on the Columbia University Academic Commons nearly two decades after the exhibition was dismantled, I thank once again the many lenders who made it possible. I also remain deeply grateful to the exhibition designer, Stephen Saitas, for his guidance and for creating an installation of haunting beauty.—Lynn Garafola Introductory Text Founded in 1948 by George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein, the New York City Ballet is universally recognized as one of the world's outstanding dance companies. This exhibition traces its development both as an artistic and social entity. The story begins with the fateful encounter of the two men in 1933, when Kirstein, an arts maverick and patron extraordinaire, invited the twenty-nine-year-old Russian-born choreographer to establish a company and a school in the United States.
