Cesar...

The art of purity and perfection...

The same qualities he has carried with him since the day he opened the primer of Billy Elliot on the Oriental stage in Chicago.

Absolutely love this kid's talent and persona, all visible in this strict form of competition.

Here's another video, taken from the wings Stage Left, of Cesar dancing the variation from Don Quixote. I believe this is part of a dress rehearsal for his performance, a link to which is posted above. The video is from the public facebook page of Espaço Dança:

Here's a great photo of Cesar from that same dance, posted just today on YAGP's public Facebook.

Here's an excellent article from the Calgary Herald discussing Cesar's appearance with the Alberta Ballet as Basillo in "Don Quixote":

Note this very exciting bit of news buried in the middle of the article! Congratulations, Cesar!

Every time he entered a Grand Prix dance competition, he won, landing him a stint with the American Ballet Theatre in New York, which led to an exchange with the Royal Ballet in London, who caught sight of Corrales and signed him to a contract that starts Oct. 1.
