  • As one who annually did reviews of all the ABT performances in the 1970s, I can say that Cynthia Gregory, who had no peer, still leaves me breathless.

  • qbendanny1 is right.

    No one dances "The Lake" section like Cynthia.

    BRAVISIMA!

  • Cynthia own this role.Bravisima!

  • When she was in her prime she was America's prima ballerina assoluta. She had no peers.

  • It is so interesting how choreography changes over the years.

  • @affectivity d'Oh! My bad! Of course. The is the lake segment from Ailey's The River, which Dennis danced in, too.

  • @queenoftheuniverse It's Alvin Ailey's choreography.

  • Can't take my eyes off Gegroy. But that's the kind of dancer she was. Gorgeous!

  • Is theis from The River by Dennis Nahat? Looks like his work.

  • it's like jazz en pointe!

  • Before I had seen Cynthia's performance in The River, my mind's eye was limited only to appreciation of her incredible technique, presence and beauty. But then a new thought stunned me. When I said I was left breathless, it came from my first deep realization of the sensuality she brought to the art.
