5) DANCING FROM THE HEART: A MEMOIR
Augustyn, Frank. With Barbara Sears

McClelland & Stewart, Toronto, 2000, first edition.. 284 pp, large 8vo (9 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0771008759 B&w photographs. "Frank Augustyn is a pioneer. The first male graduate of the National Ballet School to become an international dance star, he was also part of the first ge. neration of native-born Canadian men to transform the face of the National Ballet of Canada. He has performed both as a principal with the National Ballet of Canada and as a guest artist in the dance capitals of the world. Through the late 1970s a. nd the early 1980s, his legendary partnership with Karen Kain was one of the great treasures of Canadian ballet. Together they became household names, perhaps the only classical ballet dancers to have done so in this country. Their partnership als. o earned them the nickname 'The Gold Dust Twins', referring not only to their stunning artistry, but also to their extraordinary power to draw unprecedented and enthusiastic audiences everywher they danced. Frank Augustyn's years at the National Ba. llet (1970-1989) were exciting ones for the company as well, years that saw its transition from second to first rank on the world stage. These were the years during which Rudolf Nureyev mounted his landmark production of 'The Sleeping Beauty', and . years that saw Frank Augustyn working with some of the great luminaries of dance: Erik Bruhn, Frederick Ashton, Glen Tetley, Rudi van Dantzig, Hans van Manen, Maurice Bejart, and, of course, Nureyev himself. (This) is Frank Augustyn's own story. A. lthough it opens with his childhood in working-class Hamilton, Ontario, most of the book deals with his active dancing career, and he gives his perspective on Canadian ballet in those years. Despite his tremendous success as a dancer, he still had . to fight a prevailing social attitude in Canada that said 'real men don't dance' - and, in particular, they don't dance ballet. His unique views on the role of men in ballet - and on the trials and tribulations that the male dancer must sometimes e. ndure at the hands of his ballerinas - show humour, insight, and an appreciation of the history of the art form. His stories about the companies, dancers, and choreographers he has known and worked with are lively and revealing." Fine/Fine. (more information)
