I had the honor of taking my first ballet class from Melissa in 1981 at her studio in New York. I was an adult student but she took all of us very seriously. My intro to the generous spirit of true artists.
What a treat, this and the other snippets are! I'm sorry now that I didn't see it then. (Winthrop Sargent thought the ballet was a potboiler d'occasion.) It's all so fresh. This was Hayden's farewell showcase and she's in form. The guy - who is he? - he's okay, too. LOL I remember you in La Source and lots more. These "cuttings" just made my day!
And many thanks to another generous spirit who partners her and shares all this videos with us!
