Stanton Welch's Divergence, clip 1

Stanton Welch's sleek and sexy Divergence put him on the international map. Set to music by Bizet, this ballet takes classical movement to a whole new level.

Performed by Artists of Houston Ballet.

Stanton Welch is an outstanding choreographer. All of his dances at San Francisco Ballet have been great, and the heartening bluegrass dances on YouTube helped keep me encouraged during the worst of the Covid epidemic.
