Ted Brandsen, artistic director of the Dutch National Ballet, was invited to take part in a professional jury of the ballet company of the Opéra National de Paris (France). The jury judges the dancers of the company who want to be considered for promotion and rise, for instance, from the rank of coryphee to that of grand sujet.
The jury days were held on Wednesday 9 and Thursday 10 November in the Palais Garnier.
