Trade Review
Presents us with far more than any other ballet technique books - a rare look into Balanchine's studio from its earliest days to the time of his company's pinnacle years. A major contribution to the preservation of the Balanchine legacy. - Tamara Tomic-Vajagic, correspondent, Orchestra Dance Magazine ""The most compelling aspect of the book for me was the detail of the classes that George Balanchine taught! It's all there! This book is invaluable for all dancers! "" - Vida Brown Olinick, former ballet mistress, New York City Ballet
