Life and Career

Val Caniparoli is an American ballet dancer and international choreographer.[1] His work includes more than 100 productions for ballet, opera, and theater for over 50 companies,[2] and his career as a choreographer progressed globally even as he continued his professional dance career with the San Francisco Ballet.[3]

He joined the San Francisco Ballet as a dancer in 1973.[4] He was appointed to the position of principal character dancer with the San Francisco Ballet by Artistic Director Helgi Tomasson in 1987.[5][6] [7]

Early years

Caniparoli was born in Renton, Washington to Francisco Caniparoli, a clothing manufacturer, and Leonora (Marconi) Caniparoli, who worked at Boeing.[8] He attended Washington State University (WSU), where he studied music and theater.[9] When the First Chamber Dance Company was touring Eastern Washington, they did performances at WSU, and offered worskhops in ballet.[10] Caniparoli attended one and was told he had talent, and should audition at the San Francisco Ballet School.[11] Thereafter he decided to pursue a career in ballet, and left WSU.[12] He received a scholarship from the Ford Foundation that enabled him to attend the San Francisco Ballet School. Caniparoli performed with San Francisco Opera Ballet, and in 1973, just a year and a half into his studies, he was offered a contract with San Francisco Ballet. In his debut season, he worked under Co-Artistic Directors Lew Christensen and Michael Smuin,[13] and later, under Helgi Tomasson.[14]

Caniparoli became interested in choreography when he attended a choreography workshop offered by the Pacific Northwest Ballet.[15] After that work, his choreography career expanded and he was appointed resident choreographer for the San Francisco Ballet in the mid-1980s.[16] In 1984, Caniparoli co-founded a choreographic collective called OMO in San Francisco, and a documentary about OMO's founding was broadcast that year on PBS.[17] In 1994, he created his first full-length ballet entitled Lady of the Camellias, based on a story by Alexandre Dumas, and with a score by Frédéric Chopin.[18] Lady of the Camellias became one of Caniparoli's most popular works, and a part of the repertoire of several ballet companies, including Ballet West, Ballet Florida, Boston Ballet, Cincinnati Ballet, Tulsa Ballet, and Royal Winnipeg Ballet.[19]

Caniparoli was Resident Choreographer for Ballet West from 1993-1997, and for Tulsa Ballet from 2001-2006.[20] He continues to create works for San Francisco Ballet.[21]

In 1995, Caniparoli choreographed a new work entitled Lambarena, set to a musical blend of J.S. Bach with Traditional African music.[22] Lambarena has become another of Caniparoli's most popular creations, a blend of classical ballet and African dance.[23] This ballet has been performed more than 20 companies, including Atlanta Ballet, Boston Ballet, Cincinnati Ballet, Singapore Dance Theatre, San Francisco Ballet, and State Ballet of South Africa.[24][25]

In 2002, Caniparoli was invited to choreograph a pas de deux to be performed by Evelyn Hart and Rex Harrington for Queen Elizabeth II to celebrate her Golden Jubilee visit to Canada.[26]

In May 2010, San Francisco's American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.) premiered Tosca Cafe, a theater/dance work co-created and co-directed by Caniparoli and A.C.T.'s Carey Perloff; Caniparoli also did the choreography.[27] "'Tosca Cafe"', which started as The Tosca Project, chronicles a wide cast of characters who inhabit Tosca, a bar in the North Beach section of San Francisco in the same location for decades.[28] Caniparoli and Perloff saw this work as a unique opportunity for collaboration between dancers and actors.[29] Since its 2010 premiere in San Francisco, Tosca Cafe has been performed internationally.[30]

Influences

While growing up in Renton, Washington, Caniparoli studied music for 13 years.[31] His study included private lessons on alto saxophone, clarinet, and flute.[32] He credits his study of music with nurturing his eclectic interest in world music and composers, and varied genres.[33] He has become well known for his use of widely diverse music as a principal foundation for his choreographic work.[34][35] He was also influenced by the dancing of film stars Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire.[36] Caniparoli's work has been described as "rooted in classicism but influenced by all forms of movement: modern dance, ethnic dance, social dancing, even ice skating."[37]
