Gerne nehmen wir Anfrage von Tanzgeschäften entgegen: www.miamiibc.com Tel: 0044 1706 362 504 [email protected] D4Y-APRIL'18-FINAL.indd 1 25/04/2018 10:09:34 DANCEforYOU MAGAZINE 1 Editorial Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, kaum ein anderer Tänzer steht wohl derzeit mehr in Rede als er: Carlos Acosta, Kubas schwarzes Tanzjuwel. Nach glanzvoller, knapp drei Jahrzehnte überspannender Karriere, davon 17 Jahre beim Royal Ballet London und dort lange als Principal, tritt er immer wieder mit ungewöhnlichen Aktionen in Erscheinung. Denn vom Royal Ballet mag er zwar 2015 mit seiner Version der „Carmen“, als Solist allgemein 2016 mit einer großen Gala Abschied genommen haben - dem Tanz hat er deshalb längst nicht Valet gesagt. Allein die Zahl prestigeträchtiger Preise, vom Prix de Lausanne mit 16 über den Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Dance bis zum Prix Benois de la Danse und dem Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Award der Royal Academy of Dance, sichert ihm © Johan Persson Foto Carlos Acosta einen Platz im Tanzolymp. Doch Acosta hat darüber hinaus soziale Ambitionen. So gründete er 2016 in Havanna seine Kompanie Acosta Danza mit dem Anspruch eines breitgefächerten, eher modern ausgerichteten Repertoires und rief über eine Stiftung die Acosta Dance Academy ins Leben, die Kindern auch aus armen Verhältnissen den Weg zum Tanz eröffnen soll. Denn Carlos Acosta weiß, was es heißt, aus einfachem Milieu zu stammen und schwarz zu sein. Darüber hat er in der 2007 publizierten Biografie „No Way Home“ bewegend offen berichtet. Gut zehn Jahre später entstand danach ein aufwühlender Film, der seine Laufbahn nachzeichnet und gerade in den Kinos läuft. Man mag nicht glauben, dass einer der bedeutendsten Tänzer seiner Generation vom Vater rigoros in die Tanzausbildung hinein gezwungen werden musste. Als Breaker hatte der Knirps einen bescheidenen Ruf in seinem Viertel am Rande von Havanna, Profifußballer wäre sein Ziel gewesen. Doch es sollte anders kommen, wie Icíar Bollaíns Streifen „Yuli“, Acostas Spitznamen zitierend, bebildert: Der Tanz eroberte schließlich die Seele des Widerspenstigen, machte ihn berühmt. Alle Erfolge rund um den Globus konnten indes seine Sehnsucht nach der Heimat nicht verdrängen. Ihr will er nun zurückgeben, was er dort empfangen hat, eine kostenlose Ausbildung als Knabe aus minder privilegiertem Umfeld. Ob er für sein Projekt aus Kompanie und Akademie Unterstützung vom finanziell ohnehin gebeutelten kubanischen Staat erhält, darf bezweifelt werden. Da nimmt es nicht wunder, dass Acosta nun mit einem weiteren Coup aufwartet. Ab Januar 2020 übernimmt er die Direktion des Birmingham Royal Ballet von David Bintley, der mit der Kompanie seit 1995 ein bemerkenswertes, international beachtetes Repertoire aufgebaut hat und ab Juli 2019 seine Funktion niederlegt. Er empfinde die Berufung als große Ehre, ließ Acosta wissen, und bewundere das Erbe seines Vorgängers. Nun wolle er künftig definieren helfen, was es heiße, eine führende klassische Kompanie im 21. Jahrhundert zu sein. Man darf gespannt sein, mit welchem Spielplan er seinem Ziel, dem Tanz neue Zuschauer zu erobern, näherkommen will. Als Ehemann und Vater mit Wohnsitz auch in England wird er nun zwischen Havanna und Birmingham pendeln, manchmal eben aus der Ferne die Geschicke seiner Kompanie mit assoziierter Schule bestimmen. Vielleicht dient der Job in Birmingham nicht zuletzt auch der Finanzierung des ehrgeizigen Projekts in Havanna. In jedem Fall ist Carlos Acosta ein Ex-Startänzer mit ausgeprägt sozialem Gewissen.

Yet he likes taking responsibilities on his shoulders and, while being considered a dream partner, he expects the ballerina dancing with him to be helpful – „her work is essential“, after all. ALESSANDRO BIZZOTTO meets the French Principal dancer for a straightforward chat about good and bad memories, invitations abroad, ballet shoes and impossible wishes, such as having more time. Stéphane Bullion © James BortStéphane DANCEforYOU MAGAZINE 5 PEOPLE Stéphane Bullion in ‚Onegin‘ © Julien Benhamou ‚Onegin‘ Bullion in Stéphane am quite punctual. While lead through the hallways of the Opera Garnier, I found them unnaturally quiet. Maybe it is only because it is early January, the run of performances of “The Lady of the Camellias” is about to end – Stéphane Bullion will dance the last one as Armand tomorrow. I turn left and reach the end of a long passage. As he opens the door of his dressing room, he looks at me almost sheepishly, but with no embarrass- ment. “Stéphane” he only says as we shake hands. “Bonjour. Please come in”. He is an authentic star of ballet. I even think he is one of the male dancers Ithat today can most honestly put something of himself in the characters he dances. Yet Stéphane Bullion does not speak much at the outset – I stand till he invites me to sit on the dark sofa and he takes a seat on the low, thick radiator under the window. I can easily guess it won’t be a difficult conversation, though. The stage misleads – I expected an imposing Rothbart, a sharp-gazed Onegin, an unconcerned Albrecht. It is only now that I realize I was wrong, while Bullion looks at me with an almost curious gaze and patiently waits for me to ask my first question or say anything. After joining the Paris Opéra Ballet at 17, he was promoted to the title of étoile, the highest grade of the company, in June 2010 after his performance as Solor in “La Bayadère”. Often chosen by choreographers when their ballets enter the Paris Opera Ballet’s repertoire, he is Chevalier of Arts and Letters and has even been the star of a book and a film, “24 hours in a man’s life”, in which he featured moving on a beach twenty-four hours in a row.

  • Introduction
    Introduction The World Ballet Festival Returns for Summer 2018 From the 14th World Ballet FestivalPhoto: Kiyonori Hasegawa For more than 40 years now, the most talented and renowned dancers have come to Tokyo from around the world to perform in the World Ballet Festival, which will once again be held this summer. When it was first introduced in 1976 under the leadership of Tadatsugu Sasaki, it was very rare for the star ballerinas of different companies or countries to share a stage. Its first edition caused an international sensation by bringing together three legends, Margot Fonteyn from the UK, Maya Plisetskaya from the Soviet Union and Alicia Alonso from Cuba. Since then stars such as Jorge Donn, Patrick Dupond, Sylvie Guillem, Alessandra Ferri, Manuel Legris and Vladimir Malakhov have become regular participants, bringing the audiences to a storm of excitement every time and inspiring them to watch and compare all the dancers perform. The circle of energy created between audiences and artists in this festival produces an atmosphere that motivates dancers to perform to the best of their abilities, and has resulted in many legendary performances. Featuring the world's leading dancers, all from different artistic backgrounds and representing a wide variety of repertoire and styles, the festival also offers an opportunity to observe an overview of today's ballet scene. While there are now many similar festivals, the quality of both artists and audiences at the World Ballet Festival continues to be amongst the highest in the world. Ballet is an art form that unites finely tuned bodies and minds with sophisticated powers of expression, to create a deep and lasting impression on the audience members.
