“The Music Comes First” — an interview with Sara Mearns (DanceTabs)

Here is a recent interview with Sara Mearns of New York City Ballet, for DanceTabs, in which she discusses  recent struggles with injury, her love of dance, and some interesting upcoming plans.

A little excerpt:

“The music comes first, hands down. The music will tell you everything. It will guide you to where you need to go. It’s hard to describe how I go to that place when I get out there and hear that music. There’s nothing else.”

What are some of your mental images of Mearns’ dancing?
