Dancing the Osias Barroso way
There are distinctive movements that characterize the choreography of Ballet Manila co-artistic director Osias "Shaz" Barroso. The flick of the fingers, the position of the body, and the unyielding adherence to the foundation of the classical traditions -- combined together -- have resulted in stunning pieces that have become staples in the company's repertoire.
In this clip, we celebrate Shaz's choreographic vision with three of his trademark pieces: In Quest performed in 1995, Pinocchio in 2004, and Ecole in 2018.
