According to his niece Juli Mills-ross, a pioneer dancer and choreographer, Angel Mitchell, died of kidney failure on Wednesday morning. He was 84 years old. Born in Harlem in 1934, Mitchell grew up as one of the outstanding dancers within the Fifties and Sixties, because of his charismatic style.
In 1955, Mitchell became the primary African American dancer from New York City Ballet (NYCB), to the good disappointment of some white patrons who complained when he was paired with white ballerinas. Despite this, the co -founder and artistic director of NYCB George Balanchine still gives Mitchella the chance of flash. Soon, Mitchell became a soloist and at last the primary dancer, who was the primary for a big ballet company on the time. After his term at New York City Ballet, Mitchell became a co -founder Harlem Dance Theater With Karel Shour in 1969. His primary goal was to open a faculty for young black people in the world where he grew up. Although many individuals thought that they were crazy about establishing a classic Uptown ballet school, under the leadership of Mitchell The Dance Theater of Harlem, he became one of a very powerful dance institutions in America.
According to a former dance critic Alan Kriegsman, “Mr. Mitchell not only launched and strengthened the career of many excellent dancers, but also changed the image of African -American dance professional.” Throughout his entire profession, Mitchell won several awards, each as a dancer and because the artistic director of the Dance Theater in Harlem. In 1993 he was honored by Kennedy Center of the Performing ArtsThe following 12 months through which he received the MacArthur Foundation “Genius Grant”. In 1995, Mitchell received National Medal of Arts. Mitchell, who described himself as Jackie Robinson from Ballet World, was powered by one goal: to interrupt down what many considered possible for the black people. “The myth was that because you were black, that it was impossible to do a classic dance,” he he said. “I proved that it is wrong.” Rest in peace.
