A sweeping examination of the ways in which dance has changed in the last 20 years, this book contains penetrating interviews with 18 teachers, coaches, ballet masters and company directors - former dancers all - who now bear the responsibility for the performances we see. Trained in England, France, Denmark, Russia and America, they lend their talents to companies and schools around the world. Having left the stage behind, they devote themselves to the future, passing their vast experience, their impeccable standards, and the repertory they cherish, to young artists everywhere. Among those interviewed are Kathryn Wade (English National Ballet School), Anne Marie Vessel (Royal Danish Ballet), David Bintley (Birmingham Royal Ballet), Irina Kolpakova (Kirov Ballet), Helgi Tomass on (San Francisco Ballet), Mark Morris (Mark Morris Dance Group), and Violette Verdy (New York City Ballet and Paris Opera Ballet).
