Never Far from Dancing : Ballet artists in new roles, Paperback / softback Book

Never Far from Dancing : Ballet artists in new roles Paperback / softback

Edited by Barbara Newman

Paperback / softback

Description

A series of interviews with some of the foremost dancers in twentieth-century ballet, Never Far from Dancing reflects on the paths that their careers have taken since they retired from the stage.

Barbara Newman has expertly edited each of her interviews to read as a monologue, addressing every aspect of ballet, from its styles and technical demands to its personalities, its celebrated roles and, most of all, to what happens when the dancing stops. While ballet invites all manner of writing from critics, admirers and academics, the thoughts and experiences of the dancers themselves are seldom recorded.

Here, those who scaled the heights of their art hand down their wisdom and recount lives spent in this most enduring of art forms.
