Ballerina dances expressively in 'Swan Lake'
•y Mary Jan* Doarr
special writer
It must be every ballerina's dream to
dance tbe part of Odette in Tchaikov
sky s "Swan Lake " The ballet move
menu that imitate tbe slow and graceful
swans culminate in all tbe beauty
and elegance that ballet itself represents
Kathryn Cooke danced the role, with
New York dancer James Dunne as her
Prince Siefned. members of the Rose
Marie Floyd Ballet Company and the
Oakway Symphony Orchestra, conduct
ed by Francesco Dl Blasi. Sunday afternoon
at Mercy High School
Dunne was a handsome prince, a
precise dancer and a dramatic interpreter
His third-act solo was too short
for him to have come all the way from
New York for His turns and his jump*
were clean but what 1 admire most was
the elegance and professionalism he
gave the entire production
That is not to menUon the support be
gate his ballerina. Detroller Cooke
Cooke had moat of the solos, proving to
be powerful, strong and very expressive
m the dual part of good and evil
Her artistry was highly acceptable and
very sound
THE 44-MEMBER troupe gave an
evenly danced performance to balance
the duo's strong leadership For the
most part the group* danced precisely
together and with complete confidence
in their parts
Costuming for the troupe was a variation
of German-styled "Bavarian"
peasant dresses and traditional white
ballet dresses for the swan dances, accented
with the allegorical meaning of
black and white as symbols of good and
evil Backdrops were simple but lovely
— painted blue-green pictures of the
forest and the ballroom of the castle
Bruckner's music was in good hands
Maestro Gunther Herbig has proven himself to
be extremely capable in his few previous programs
with tbe Detroit Symphony Orchestra His latest
program showed this capability is solidly rooted
While most new appointees might tend to show
their best side during their initial engagement, with
the full cooperation of the musicians, the ability to
sustain that quality is what makes the difference in
the long run
While predicting the future is always a risky
business. Maestro Herbig- has demonstrated his
skilled leadership, this time with a work that isn't
universally embraced — the Symphony No 5 by
Bruckner
Ironically, this long work turned out to be more
convincing, in terms of performance, than the far
more familiar opening selection — tbe Piano Con
certo No S by Beethoven
The Beethoven Concerto was played by Andre
Michel Sctiub, winner of tbe Van Clibum compeu
tion in 1981 Tbe shortcomings in this performance
weren't due to MAESTRO Herbig or the orchestra
however
In fact, the orchestral aspect of this work was
among the highest in quality that I can recall in live
performances This emphasized even more the
weakness in Schub's playing
While there is no doubt in my mind that he is a
very capable musician, that particular evening
wasn't one of his best
HE SHOWED good technique with all notes in
place, but there was a lack of eventfulness The
dynamic changes, while following the general ret
omlT>ended trend, didn't go*beyond the call of duty
A case tn point was the end of the development
section of the first movement This is ooe of the
dramatic, climactic moments In that movement
and calls for more than a mild crescendo
Another example is the new theme in the middle
section of the final movement (A flat major), which
should depict a distinct, darker element, rather
than follow the pattern of the rest of tbe move
