| Sumario: | Isis Wirth, Cuban resident of Costa Rica, who is a dance reviewer for the Semanario Universidad and ex-member of the Alicia Alonso ballet, presents in this chronicle a sensitive homage to the Russian dancer and choreographer, Georges Balanchine, who migrated to the United States, to celebrate a century of his birth. Balanchine, the most influential choreographer after Marius Petipa in four hundred years of ballet, is the Mozart of the genre, according to Wirth. His hundreds of works and masterpieces are essential parts of the repertories of all the world's ballet companies. |
