A Japanese friend visiting Hong Kong kindly brought me the November issue of 2 Japanese magazines - "Dance Magazine, Shinshokan" and "Ballet". In both magazines, I noticed among the many beautiful photos several of Pacific Northwest Ballet dancers Olivier Wevers and Kaori Nakamura dancing in the Bunkarmura gala several months ago. There is a 2-page feature of Nakamura in "Ballet".<P>"Ballet" has Alessandra Ferri on the cover and an interview with her. (I wish I could read Japanese.) "Dance Magazine Shinshokan" has many beautiful photos of the top stars performing in the recent World Ballet Festival in Tokyo - Sylvie Guillem, Vladimir Malakhov, Nicolas Le Riche, Aurelie Dupont etc.<P>

Why nothing of Sylvie Guillem in Tokio?
