Royal Danish Ballet

Dancers from the Royal Danish Ballet perform excerpts from repertory in advance of the company's American tour in May and June. Artistic director Nikolaj Hübbe—the former New York City Ballet principal—talks about his vision for the group in a discussion moderated by John Meehan, professor of dance at Vassar College. Repertoire includes selections from August Bournonville’s The Jockey Dance, La Sylphide, A Folk Tale and Bournonville Variations, as well as Hübbe’s new staging of Napoli and Jorma Elo’s Lost on Slow.
