Yuan Yuan Tan and Tiit Helimets in Balanchine’s Stravinsky Violin Concerto, San Francisco Ball
Yuan Yuan Tan and Tiit Helimets in Balanchine’s Stravinsky Violin Concerto, San Francisco Ballet, March 2017. © Erik Tomasson.Tiit Helimets partnered Yuan Yuan Tan in Aria II. Her extreme flexibility would seem to be an asset in such an acrobatic ballet; but combined with her boneless lyricism, it blurred the lines between positions. Eight corps women and eight men filled out the cast; the men in particular elevated the performance with easy unison, airy ballon and powder-soft landings. -- source link
