John Neumeier : President of the jury 08 The Prix de Lausanne is delighted to announce the participation in the 2008 competition of the renowned choreographer and Director of the Hamburg Ballet, John Neumeier. Mr Neumeier has graciously agreed to serve as the President of the 2008 jury in Lausanne and will lead a panel comprising, among other famous ballet stars, Altinay Asylmuratova (Saint Petersburg), Elisabeth Platel (Paris Opera) and Anna Maria Prina (Scala de Milano). In addition to his participation as President of the jury, Mr Neumeier has generously contributed twelve excerpts from his extensive repertoire, from which candidates can select the contemporary ballet variation they will present in the competition. These variations have been captured on film in Hamburg, performed by dancers of Mr Neumeier's company, some of whom are former laureates of the Prix de Lausanne. Candidates will be able to learn the variations from the DVD recording in advance of the competition. During the week in Lausanne, they will be coached in these variations by members of Mr Neumeier's staff. This opportunity to study Mr Neumeier's repertoire with the guidance of his own artistic team is unique to the Prix de Lausanne, and underlines the Prix's reputation as an exceptional learning experience for talented young artists. We wish to thank our sponsors and benefactors, and in particular : Adveq Management SA The complete list of our benefactors can be found at: REGISTRATION FOR THE PRIX DE LAUSANNE 2008 : www.prixdelausanne.org
