Twenty candidates have been selected for the Finals of the Prix de Lausanne that will take place on Saturday 6 February 2021 at 14.00 CET.
Seventy-eight candidates from around the world have presented their classical and contemporary variations via video. The nine jury members watched and marked each candidate during the week through ballet class exercises. At the end of the selections yesterday, the jury made its choice after seeing the classical and contemporary variations videos of each candidate.
Various parameters were taken into account to assess the dancers' potential: artistry, technical facility, the ability to give an imaginative and sensitive response to the music, and to communicating clear movements, among others. They had to master the traditional classical repertoire as well as the contemporary creations of Kinsun Chan, Cathy Marston, Goyo Montero, Heinz Spoerli or Richard Wherlock.
The jury, composed of renowned personalities of the field and presided this year by Richard Wherlock (Director and Head Choreographer at Basel Ballet) has selected the 20 Finalists of the Prix de Lausanne 2021:
