First Position - A Century of Ballet Artists (Hardback)
FOrward by Bruce Marks.
The dancers profiles in First Position represent the pinnacle of their art over the last century. Author Toby Singer polled scores of dance critics, dance teachers and professors, and active and retired professional dancers to create a list that represents the best of the various styles of ballet from the last hundred years. The result is a collective biography that introduces the reader to both dancers with household names and those known mostly to ballet aficionados. Profiled dancers include Carlos Acosta, Alicia Alonso, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Erik Bruhn, Lázaro Carreno, Margot Fonteyn, Carla Fracci, Gesley Kirkland, Li Cunxin, Muriel Maffre, Natalia Makarova, Arthur Mitchell, Rudolf Nureyev, Anna Pavlova, and Maya Plisetskaya.
