Winter Mix | Ballet Memphis

Ballet Memphis presents the annual Winter Mix performances at Playhouse on the Square from Friday, February 21, through Sunday, February 23. This year's show features two premieres and one returning favorite.

Darel Snodgrass talks with Ballet Memphis Artistic Director Steven McMahon and company member and choreographer Emilia Sandoval about the new pieces, including a premiere by Emilia and the return of Trey McIntyre's "The Barramundi," last performed in 2008.

I began piano lessons at age 6, trumpet at age 9, and began teaching myself the guitar at 10. My electronics knowledge comes from my father, who had the RCA television and stereo shop in my hometown of Pocahontas, Arkansas for nearly 20 years. My dad is still fixing televisions at age 79.
