Marcelo Gomes, a native of Brazil, began his dance studies at the age of 5 at the Helena Lobato and Dalal Aschcar ballet schools in Rio de Janeiro. Upon winning the Revelation Prize at the Festival of Dance in Joinville in 1993, he traveled to the United States to continue his training at The Harid Conservatory in Boca Raton, Florida, as well as at the schools of the Boston Ballet, Houston Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet and Cuballet, where he studied under Alicia Alonso. Gomes was awarded second place at the National Society of Arts and Letters and was the recipient of the Hope Prize at Lausanne. Gomes became a principal dancer at ABT in 2002. He has performed in virtually every full-length classical ballet in the company's repertoire. He has appeared at many international dance festivals and has been a guest artist with the Kirov Ballet, Dutch National Ballet, National Ballet of Canada, Houston Ballet, Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires, Teatro Municipal Do Rio de Janeiro, Universal Ballet and New York City Ballet. In the summer of 2008, he accompanied Alessandra Ferri on her farewell tour in Japan and Italy, and recently
was the recipient of the prestigious Prix Benois de la Danse award in Moscow. He starred with Diana Vishneva in the Center's Tour de Force II this past April.


New York City Center 
Five years after its world premiere at Segerstrom Center for the Arts and New York City Center, Kings of the Dance returns with an all-new program showcasing the incredible power, athleticism and artistry of today's most celebrated male ballet stars. Kings of the Dance: Opus 3 will feature Guillaume Côté of the National Ballet of Canada, Marcelo Gomes of American Ballet Theatre, David Hallberg of American Ballet Theatre and the Bolshoi Ballet, Denis Matvienko of the Mariinsky Ballet and Ivan Vasiliev of the Bolshoi Ballet. The men will dance eight New York premieres created by Mauro Bigonzetti, Edward Clug, Patrick De Bana, Nacho Duato, Jorma Elo, Marco Goecke and Marcelo Gomes. The evening will also include a historic collaboration by two of the dancers: a work choreographed by Gomes to music by Côté. Kings of the Dance: Opus 3, another of the extraordinary dance events for which Ardani Artists is renowned, is a co-production with Segerstrom Center for the Arts. Performances at New York City Center conclude the world tour that started in Moscow and continued in St. Petersburg, Riga, Novosibirsk, Kiev and Orange County.
