From September 4-14, 2014, Houston Ballet launches its 45th season with the company premiere of John Neumeier's three-act ballet A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Ci eravamo lasciati lunedi scorso con la notizia dell'ingresso in giuria di Gian Maria Cervo, che affianchera i gia annunciati Gino Landi, Rossana Casale e Germano Mazzocchetti nell'arduo compito di raffinare il voto gia espresso dal pubblico votante... Come gia annunciato da Giampiero Ingrassia in conferenza stampa (qui l'articolo), e con una punta d'orgoglio che ufficializziamo oggi il nome del quinto giurato d'eccezione: un pioniere che, nel solco della tradizione di Garinei e Giovannini, ha importato la formula musical anglosassone in Italia...
