520    Written records of Alonso's work are scarce, yet Toba 
       Singer's quest to spotlight his seminal role in the 
       development of the modern ballet canon yields key material
       : pre-blockade tapes from Lincoln Center, Spanish-language
       sources from the Museum of Dance in Havana, and interviews
       with the ballet master himself alongside a broad range of 
       friends, relatives, and collaborators from throughout his 
       long career, including his ex-wife, Alicia, a famous 
       ballerina in her own right.
