Angel Corella López[1] is a Spanish former principal dancer with the American Ballet Theatre (the only Spaniard to have achieved such a position in history) and guest artist with The Royal Ballet, Kirov Ballet, New York City Ballet, La Scala and the Australian Ballet among many others. Since the 2014/2015 season, he has been the Artistic Director of Philadelphia Ballet (Formerly Pennsylvania Ballet).
Considered one of the leading dancers of his generation, he has received numerous awards including the Prix Benois de la Danse and the national award of Spain. He is also credited with ushering in a new era for male ballet in America, thanks to his appearance in the 2002 documentary Born to be Wild and successful franchise show Kings of the Dance. The New York Times said Corella gave "classical dancing, especially in the 19th-century repertory, a new image."[2]
Having appeared on the front cover of The New York Times on various occasions, he is described as a "a dancer capable of turning performance into sensation"[3] and as a "force of nature"[4] by the Los Angeles Times.
After performing at the Kennedy Center Honors for the third time in 2014 he was made an official member of the artistic committee. He is the most featured dancer of the American Ballet Theatre in DVD recordings and his appearance as Prince Siegfried in the PBS presentation of Swan Lake won an Emmy Award.
Corella is the only dancer with a statue in the Madrid Wax Museum,[5] and has both a secondary school and dance museum named after him. He has also been a judge on the Spanish version of the popular television show Mira Quien Baila.
On 22 July 2014, Philadelphia Ballet (Formerly Pennsylvania Ballet) announced that Corella has been appointed as its artistic director.
