Ballet San Jose is full of surprises...
Tag - San Jose
This was an evening not to be missed. Newly appointed Artistic Director, José Manuel Carreño, made sure that the quality of the eighteen guest artists for Ballet San Jose’s Gala Performance would tantalise even the most skeptical dance fan.
The good news is that I had a very pleasant afternoon, mostly the result of the dancers actually having a splendid time on stage.
The overall spirit is vivacious, the ensemble committed, on task and fully present. As this company moves along its new trajectory... there is every reason to believe that its partnership with ABT will be celebrated...
...I’m not certain in which direction the company is headed. There is so much potential to be realised that it would be disappointing to see it ebb away.
