Description
Ballet dancers who have scaled the heights of their art share their wisdom and recount lives spent in this enduring art form. In "Never Far from Dancing", expertly edited interviews offer insights into ballet's styles, technical demands, personalities, celebrated roles, and what happens when dancing stops.
These personal reflections provide a unique perspective on the world of ballet, one that is often overlooked by critics, admirers, and academics. The dancers' thoughts and experiences are here, offering a rare glimpse into the lives of those who have dedicated their careers to this beautiful art form.
This book provides a fascinating look at the paths taken by some of the foremost dancers in twentieth-century ballet since they retired from the stage.
