“There’s nothing better for me than to see their faces when Klara [Houdet] is dancing the Dying Swan. I’ve seen children almost cry at the end because they think she has died. That’s beautiful. That’s why I get up in the morning.”
Graham Spicer is a writer, director and photographer in Milan, blogging (under the name ‘Gramilano’) about dance, opera, music and photography for people “who are a bit like me and like some of the things I like”. He was a regular columnist for Opera Now magazine and wrote for the BBC until transferring to Italy.
His scribblings have appeared in various publications from Woman’s Weekly to Gay Times, and he wrote the ‘Danza in Italia’ column for Dancing Times magazine.
