| Summary, etc. |
In this fascinating book of previously unpublished interviews, twenty-four famous twentieth-century dancers discuss how they strike a balance between the demands of art and personal life, between public triumphs and private doubts, between ballet's grand tradition and the pursuit of individual style. The mighty personalities, the classics roles, the great companies that have shaped modern ballet are the subjects of these remarkable self-portraits. Established masters - Christopher Gable, Beryl Grey, Donald MacLear, Monica Mason, Antoinette Sibley and others - join younger stars such as Peter Martins and Merrill Ashley in recounting their apprenticeships and their performances of the great roles of the ballet repertory on the world's celebrated stages.<br/>International in scope, Striking a Balance sweeps the reader from Diaghilev's company to the productions of George Balanchine, from London's august Royal Ballet to Havana's brilliant Ballet Nacional de Cuba. These extraordinary and unique interviews - accompanied by rare action photographs of the artists in their most famous roles - provide an inside view of dancers carrying on ballet's glorious past and making the present their own. -- Book Jacket<br/> |
