NDI update on PBS

Thanks to Barbara for alerting us to this great PBS Newshour feature that ran tonight on Jacques d'Amboise and the National Dance Institute. There are some great, great film clips of his early dancing.

    The whole performance of Jacques D’Amboise in Apollo used to be on YT but I don’t know if it still is. I was lucky enough to see it about 2 years ago and then to talk with Mr. D’Amboise a few days later. What a nice and humble man! BTW, that version of Apollo is the same version danced by the Mariinsky.

    Hi, Lisa.
    I don’t think I’ve ever seen the whole version of that clip. Hopefully, it’s tucked away safely on YouTube and will resurface eventually.
