Selected candidates for the Prix 2008 Dear Friends of the Prix de Lausanne, 157 candidates (129 girls and 28 boys), representing 29 different nationalities, applied to participate in the video selection that took place last October 20-21. The assessing panel for the qualifying round of the competition was made up of the Prix's artistic committee, with support from a group of dance experts, each of whom meets the criteria for membership of a Prix de Lausanne jury. The names of the artistic committee members and the jury selection criteria can be found here. The assessing panel’s goal was to identify the career potential of each candidate. Whilst advanced technical skills were taken into account, dancers were not judged solely on their achievements to date, but on whether we observed the potential we believe necessary to succeed within a dancing career Following this process, we are very pleased to inform you that the panel have selected 71 young dancers (51 girls and 20 boys), representing 22 different nationalities, to go through to the next stage of the competition, which will take place in Lausanne from January 29 to February 3, 2008. You can see who they are here. We would like to congratulate all these candidates and wish them all the best for their preparation in the next coming months. We wish to thank our sponsors and benefactors, and in particular : Adveq Management SA The complete list of our benefactors can be found at:
