Another new ballet by Ernesta Corvino entitled Works of Heart inspired by the paintings of Botticelli, Gainsborough, Rembrandt and Edvard Munch premiered March 12th at The Judy Bayley Theater in Las Vegas, Nevada and played to several large and very enthusiastic audiences. Ms. Corvino danced the role of "The Blue Boy" while the other roles were danced in two separate casts by the talented young dancers of The UNLV Dance Company.
REVIEW by Hal de Becker..............
One of the program’s most delightful pieces was Ernesta Corvino’s “Works of Heart” set to music by Satie, Haydn, Baltzar and others. The work took its inspiration from famous paintings such as Gainsborough’s “Blue Boy,” which Ms. Corvino, in the title role, portrayed with wit and elegance. Works by Rembrandt, Munch and Botticelli were also represented in movement. The finale brought the masterpieces together in a humorous romp.
