“Sylfiden findes” (The Sylph exist”)

The combination of the house classic with a brand new ballet demonstrates the strengths and the challenges of the company: How to maintain the tradition and how to develop as a company?

The Son of the Black Queen

Alexander Meinertz

“Erik Bruhn – billedet indeni” (The Picture Within)

Alexander Meinertz has written a superb biography of Erik Bruhn that sets new standards for a ballet biography. Unfortunately, this far it is only availably in Danish but hopefully an English version will follow: as the book demonstrates, Bruhn was as much a product of his international years as his Danish heritage and should be of interest to an international audience.

Tradition - Tradition!!!

Nikolaj Hübbe’s first season as Ballet Master of his parent company, the Royal Danish Ballet celebrates the Danish dramatic tradition – without one single Bournonville ballet.
