A Mixed Blessing at the Ballet 01
Daily Telegraph July 28 2001 A mixed blessing at the ballet Photo Sheila Rock As Anthony Dowell leaves the Royal Ballet, dance critic Ismene Brown assesses his 15-year regime as director - and stars pay tribute below AT THE Royal Ballet the countdown has begun to the end of an era. A week tonight, amid ﬂowers, Champagne and tears, Sir Anthony Dowell, the longest-serving ballet director since the company’s founder, Ninette de Valois, will end his 15-year regime. He was undoubtedly one of the great world stars of dancing, and the “Celebration Programme” will mark his achievements as such. But about his success as director of the company, opinion is far from unanimous. What makes a good director? The question has never been more of a poser than during Dowell\s captaincy of the ballet, in the most turbulent years of the Royal Opera House’s history. There are many pluses on Dowell’s account sheet - his maintenance of high classical technical standards, his welcoming of key foreign artists into the Royal (particularly Sylvie Guillem and Irek Mukhamedov), his inspiring coaching, to which leading guest stars attest opposite. The rise of Darcey Bussell to world acclaim, the forging of a superb partnership between Mukhamedov and Viviana Durante, this ﬁnal, nostalgic and beautiful 2000-01 season - these are positive memories. He will be noted as a conservative, and many welcomed this after an insecure period of modernising under his predecessor, Norman Morrice. Whether conservatism has served the company well for the future, though, is debatable. In the shifting landscape of ballet, conservatism is not enough to hold steady.

Remembering Edouard Borovansky and His Company 1939–1959
REMEMBERING EDOUARD BOROVANSKY AND HIS COMPANY 1939–1959 Marie Ada Couper Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne 1 ABSTRACT This project sets out to establish that Edouard Borovansky, an ex-Ballets Russes danseur/ teacher/choreographer/producer, was ‘the father of Australian ballet’. With the backing of J. C. Williamson’s Theatres Limited, he created and maintained a professional ballet company which performed in commercial theatre for almost twenty years. This was a business arrangement, and he received no revenue from either government or private sources. The longevity of the Borovansky Australian Ballet company, under the direction of one person, was a remarkable achievement that has never been officially recognised. The principal intention of this undertaking is to define Borovansky’s proper place in the theatrical history of Australia. Although technically not the first Australian professional ballet company, the Borovansky Australian Ballet outlasted all its rivals until its transformation into the Australian Ballet in the early 1960s, with Borovansky remaining the sole person in charge until his death in 1959. In Australian theatre the 1930s was dominated by variety shows and musical comedies, which had replaced the pantomimes of the 19th century although the annual Christmas pantomime remained on the calendar for many years. Cinemas (referred to as ‘picture theatres’) had all but replaced live theatre as mass entertainment. The extremely rare event of a ballet performance was considered an exotic art reserved for the upper classes. ‘Culture’ was a word dismissed by many Australians as undefinable and generally unattainable because of our colonial heritage, which had long been the focus of English attitudes.

Bonne Bouche (Ballet)
Bonne Bouche (Ballet) Argument C’est l’histoire d’une jeune femme intrigante, non romantique, minaudière et qui ne considère le mariage que comme un moyen d’accéder à la fortune. Sa mère avare et toujours vêtue avec ostentation, la pousse en vain, de prétendant en prétendant. Mais ceux-ci – hormis le dernier – lui échappent toujours au dernier moment avant de l’épouser. C’est ainsi, qu’elle abandonne son amoureux transi, un jeune homme plaisant et fort démuni, son seul véritable amour, pour un riche vieillard du voisinage, invalide et débauché, qui décède d’une attaque cardiaque avant qu'elle puisse l'amener à l'autel. Ensuite, elle jette son dévolu sur un officier des gardes, mais ce second projet est anéanti par l'arrivée soudaine de l’épouse délaissée et de la famille de ce fringuant militaire. Pendant ce temps, son jeune soupirant, encore pauvre et toujours fidèle, part en Afrique Noire avec un groupe d’évangélistes des rues – la « Ligue de Lumière » (Armée du Salut). Il finit par y trouver de l’or et, enfin millionnaire, décide de rentrer à Kensington, en compagnie d’un roi africain de sa connaissance, noir et cannibale de son état. Le roi africain arrive le premier sur la place. La jeune femme toujours en quête de beaux partis devient rapidement l'épouse du roi cannibale, qui la désire non pas pour combler son coeur mais plutôt son estomac. En effet, il finit par la consommer au dîner. En rentrant à son tour, le jeune amoureux fidèle trouve la grande marmite vide à l’exception d’un bracelet et d’un peu de fumée.

In keeping with the widely recognized concept of ballet as an art form that is traditionally passed down by oral means, the focus of this research is on aspects of Black’s pedagogy that are derived from her teachers, Audrey de Vos and Antony Tudor. This essay explores the pedagogical work of de Vos and Tudor, examines how their respective inﬂuences affected Black’s methodology, and indicates characteristics of her work that she developed independently. In the world of ballet, lineage matters.

Il a écrit aussi des Oratorios, des sonates pour clavecin et de la musique de chambre. La première représentation de l’opéra fut le 3 janvier 1776 à Venise au théâtre San Benedetto. Il est basé sur le même livret que l’Orphée et Euridice de Gluck, et a été également composé pour le même castrat, Gaetano Guadagni. Contrairement à Gluck, Bertoni a créé un véritable opéra-seria, dont nous célèbrons sa redécouverte ici grâce à ce nouvel enregistrement avec la grande et talentueuse Vivica Genaux. L’opera seria est un opéra de tradition et de langue italienne pratiqué au xviiie siècle.

Johaar Mosaval from District Six to the Royal Ballet
Johaar Mosaval From District Six to the Royal Ballet District Six like Harlem in New York also had its own “Harlem Renaissance” or cultural boom. Writers, composers, photographers, filmmakers, dramatists, poets, musicians, dancers, artists, socio-political activists flourished and exploded onto the world stage but were denied the opportunity for career advancement in their own homeland. Few other places can boast of such an explosion of talent and impact. It was nothing short of miraculous, given the adversity faced by the people. The District’s Hyman Lieberman and Marion Institutes were cultural centres of excellence. Down the road the Eoan Group was the launch-pad of many stars such as Johaar Mosaval who began his ballet career there. It was the start of a journey that led to the Royal Ballet Opera School in London and to him becoming a principle dancer with the Royal Ballet. Indeed, shamefully for the Apartheid government and the City authorities, and tragically for the people of the district, District Six, home of more than 60,000 people was demolished and its people forcibly removed under Apartheid’s ethnic cleansing programme for the City. The District’s names and achievements roll off the tongue: Abdullah Ibrahim, Basil Coetzee, Lennie Lee, Bea Benjamin, Zane Adams, Hotep Galeta, Alex la Guma, Richard Rive, Rozena Maart, Adam Small, Taliep Petersen, George Hallett, Gregoire Boonzaier, Sandra McGregor, James Matthews and Trevor Jones are just a few of those names. Johaar Mosaval was born in District Six in Cape Town on 8 January 1928 and was one of nine children in his family.
