Inimitable Tudor
By Tobi Tobias, VoiceofDance.comFriday February 15, 2008
To honor the 100th anniversary of Antony Tudor’s birth the New York Theatre Ballet presented two of the choreographer’s major works, Jardin aux Lilas (Lilac Garden) and Judgment of Paris, as well as Little Improvisations, merely a bagatelle, but still echt, inimitable Tudor. All three dances were staged by Sallie Wilson, to my mind the only person able to infuse Tudor’s emotionally searing choreography with the inseparable subtleties of gesture and feeling it had when Tudor was with us to coach it himself.
