Balanchine Foundation video archives

Description

This video from Balanchine Foundation Video Archives is devoted to examining selected passages of Balanchine's choreography in detail. In a 2013 studio setting at New York City Ballet Studios, Lincoln Center, New York, Jacques D'Amboise coaches Robert Fairchild, Sara Mearns, Tiler Peck and Ana Sophia Scheller from New York City Ballet on Balanchine's Who Cares?. Also Alastair Macaulay interviews Jacques D'Amboise. 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.
