| I do not know how... but today! what a day
3 documentaries uploaded!
the Tchaikovsky Royal Ballet - Anthony Dowell coaching Carlos Acosta on Sleeping Beauty solo A& Monica Mason coaching Gillian Revie on Carabosse; such a great documentary witnessing the passing on of knowledge and artistry through generations
ALINA AND JOHAN!!!!! words cannot describe how excited i was
and Royal Ballet school... such a fantastic documentary! from young hopeful auditions, students in white lodge, girls graduating in Upper school trying to find a job; corp who admits so honestly about insecurity of career but yet the calling from stage; first soloists just ONE tiny step towards principle and principles who face pressure of performing to perfection. AMAZING!

| after a whole year deprived of the Royal Ballet, I watched the gala performance of Alina Cojocaru and Johan Kobborg in Hong Kong; three nights in a row.
two days have passed, and I really, really do, miss them...
is this weird? to be so attached to ballet, the ballet company, the dancers
I almost cried with all the emotions which flowed out when I first saw the pair stepped out onto the stage; here they were, the star couple which I have watched for 3 years; from my beloved company; finally making their debut in Hong Kong
after the second performance I was able to meet Alina and Johan in person; I gave them my greetings and wished Alina to recover speedily; she smiled and said thank you. I was ecstatic!
But... we are not friends, not even acquaintance? why the emotion?
I guess there forms a special relationship or some kind of attachment as the audience watches the artistic performance. one feels immersed into the world of the artists. one feels connected to them. one cares about their well being. one wants to thank them for giving their all to the performance, physically, emotionally, artistically.
it is impossible to become any closer to an artist you admire; unless by fortune you somehow can become friends from random circumstances... however i just will settle with giving my heartfelt thanks to these incredible artists in this blog
THANK YOU VERY MUCH Alina and Johan. =)
photos from Alina's come back after her scary injury - Giselle at Covent Garden (Apr 09)
really wish I was there.... oh well...
