One of the youngest members to ever join the New York City Ballet, Suzanne Ferrell was discovered when she was 14, and by the age of 15 had a part in the company's production of the NUTCRACKER. Soon, George Balanchine, the legendary choreographer, recognized Suzanne's remarkable innate abilities and wrote parts for her in DON QUIXOTE and MOVEMENTS FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA, MEDITATION, leading to a 20 year collaboration between the two artists, broken only by Suzanne's stint with Maurice Bejart's Ballet of the 20th Century in the early 1970s. This documentary examines Suzanne's remarkable life and career and focuses on her collaboration with Balanchine, one of the most fruitful relationships in dance during the 20th century.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull FrameAudio: Stereo - EnglishInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus

Merle Haggard ranks as one of the definitive icons of country music. A multiple Grammy Award winner and a Country Music Hall of Famer, he was in large part responsible for creating the Bakersfield country sound which was popularized in the 1960s. Incorporating jazzy country swing into his catchy sound that made much use of guitar solos, he created a honky-tonk style that was all his own. While he slipped from the limelight in the 80s and 90s, Merle experienced a comeback in 2000 as a new generation discovered him with the spare, powerful album IF I COULD ONLY FLY.
This release features a live performance at the ultimate honky-tonk joint Billy Bob`s, with Merle playing all the old hits, as well as new material; the song list includes such favorites as Mama Tried,
Workin` Man Blues,
A Place to Fall Apart,
Natural High,
and
Rainbow Stew,
as well as the new
Ol` Country Singer.
