Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 26, 2002 Administrators Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 An excellent summer program in a wonderful setting, Arielle Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 An old established organization, Chautauqua. For more details try: http://dance.ciweb.org/ Link to comment
Guest relballet Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 Do you know if it is very hard to get into? Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 26, 2002 Administrators Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 I believe that they are quite selective, as are most good programs. It's not a huge program and they cannot take everyone, of course. That's why one should audition for several programs, in order to increase the chances of getting accepted somewhere. Link to comment
Guest relballet Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 Do you know if it is balanchine technique? I was wondering bacause i am thinking of auditioning and i study with frank ohman in n.y. My mom wants me to go there because my uncle lectures there every summer. Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 26, 2002 Administrators Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 Check out the web site. I think you will see that it is not limited to any one technique. The faculty has a wide range of background, from NYCB to ABT, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee Ballet, etc. Link to comment
Guest Medora Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 O, my teacher told me about Chautaqua a while back! There are just so many places I want to go, to go to any of them would make me so happy! I just can't decide! I can't audition for everything because my parents are not going to drive to to D.C.more than twice, I just wish I could know now which ones to audition for, there are so many that seem so wondertful! And auditioning by video just isn't as good, is it? I could do it in two trips if I auditioned for ABT in January, but that's way too early for them! And Chatauqua doesn't let you know their decision until March 31st; that's late. Link to comment
Guest Medora Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Chataqua doesn't let the students who audition know if they got in until after March 31. How late is this is comparison to the other schools? Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted December 3, 2002 Administrators Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 It varies a lot, Medora. Some schools send out their letters within a week to two weeks following each audition, and others wait until all the auditions are over and then send all the letters. I believe there are even some schools who tell you at the audition, but not very many do that. I try to get our letters out a week to 10 days after each audition. Link to comment
