Like music, dance is a universal language which is internationally celebrated. The School of American Ballet (SAB) held their lavish Winter Ball at Lincoln Center’s beautiful David H. Koch Theater in March featuring dinner, dance and fun, all for a good cause while indulging in the arts. An exclusive performance took centre-stage by the SAB students, with choreography by Peter Walker, who was chosen for the second consecutive year by the Artistic Director and Chairman of Faculty of SAB, Peter Martins. Their pliés, pirouettes and arabesques were delivered with such grace and poise as the dancers followed the beat of the music. As a group, they performed in harmony, while the solo performance was conducted with such elegance. The celebrated French jewellery brand Van Cleef & Arpels sponsored the gorgeous event, stunningly designed by Ron Wendt, who added a touch of sophistication to the ambiance with European elegance. Simplicity and glamour illuminated the room with white floral arrangements and long candlesticks serving as centrepieces. Fifteen-foot-tall gold and silver mobile chandeliers dangled from above the dining hall, adding a rich radiance to the setting.—Lola Cristall, Paris Editor
