Balanchine Foundation video archives

Description

This video is devoted to examining selected passages of Balanchine's choreography in detail. In a studio setting, Violette Verdy and Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux coach Jennie Somogyi and Sébastien Marcovici excerpts from Liebeslieder Walzer. The overall goal of the Video Archives Program is to create an original "manuscript" of Balanchine ballets by preserving not only the steps but the nuances of the choreography as conceived and taught to the dancers by Balanchine himself.
