Photos just don’t do her justice
Posted by Kristin Sloan
After seeing David’s beautiful photos of Alessandra Ferri’s farewell performance, I thought maybe I should post a few of our (NYC Ballet’s) “hometown” hero. I was busy videotaping the evening’s performance, so I’ve included a few screenshots from some of my footage.
Kyra Nichols has always been one of my favorites. I only wish I could have seen her in Spring from Jerome Robbins’ The Four Seasons and in the pas de deux from In G Major again! She looks as if she could keep dancing forever. Kyra, we will miss you!
