Ballet
Continued from Page 8
The "tightrope" consisted of two male dancers and a
female. Prior to their appearance on stage a dancer came
on and drew an imaginary chalk line on the floor to re
present the tightrope. The dancers then walked on with
ludicrously arrogant struts, clutching parasols. The female
wore a tutu and rather limp plumes in her hair that made
her look like Pavlova after a ducking. The three dancers
walked tenuously back and forth, across the imaginary
line, doing splits and wavering as if to fall off.
At one time they picked up the girl and balanced her
on their shoulders with legs wobbling precariously. They
were immensely pleased with themsel es and were all set
for what they felt was their well-desuved applause when
a fourth dancer appeared and did effortless somersaults all
the way down the imaginary line. The first three dancers
left in a huff.
Comic break
This piece was a lovely comic interlude and you be
came so caught up in its humor that you didn't realize
the difficulties of performing it. To dance "sports is to
perform one type of movement demanding a certain
amount of tension and pressure with another type with
totally different standards.
The third piece of the evening was perhaps the least
successful. The work was "Adagic Hammerklavier,"
choreographed by Hans van Manen td Beethoven's
"Adagio of the Hammerklaviersonate Opus 106." The
initial impression of the piece was one of softness. The
blue flowing costumes for the women and white tights
for the men accented this. But for some reason the de
signer, Jean-Paul Vroam, saw fit to accent the men's white
tights with silver neck chains of the collar variety. This
gave a hard metallic glint that seemed out of place and cut
the smooth soft line of the male dressers off at the neck.
The work was probably the longest of the evening and
was an adagio. There is some question though of when
repetition is harmony and when it becomes monotonous.
The piece was lovely and abstract but the lack of variety
of movement and its length led to restlessness in the
audience and they were glad at its conclusion.
The audience thoroughly enjoyed the "Pas de Dix"
from the classic Petipa ballet "Raymonda." Raymondais
a ballet of saracens and damsels in distress set to the
moorish Hungarian strains of Alexander Glazounov's wild
ly passionate score. This was a "divertissment" with a
dash for the company to exhibit its fine virtuoso footwork.
