Mr. Clifford, imho you should be given some sort of formal award for your contributions to ballet in the USA-- for your good offices in posting so much on KZbin that gives so much pleasure-- and enlightenment-- to so many people

@John Clifford, I'm sorry to hear that your story with this ballet didn't come to fruition. But that's life, we choose our paths and open new perspectives. Thank you for the video.

Wow, the story ballets were soooooooo rare for NYCB. You can tell some are a bit "fish outta water" with the pantomime, but the quality of the dancing is of corse high calibre.

John, are you aware that NYCB has the oldest male principals in the country...Tyler Angle 20 years in the company, Adrian Danchig-Waring 22 years, Anthony Huxley 18 years, Andrew Veyette 25 years, Daniel Ulbricht 20 years, Peter Walker and Joseph Gordon both have been at nycb 14 years

With the years passing…I,know realize that PATRICIA McBRIDE….was much better then SUSANNE FARELL….

[@macnellietwo]

Both were wonderful and very very different. Both were too wonderful and too different to be compared and graded.

[@levondelite4072]

Two completely different dancers. McBride more of an allegro dancer and Farrell more adagio.
