SLIM MELLO

 

Valse” by Sidra Bell

Cause if my Lord should call on me“…

 In 2010, Slim was invited by Sylvia Waters and Troy Powell to be a member of Ailey II. Being a part of the second company of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater was a dream come true. He had so many opportunities to dance the pieces that inspired him in the very beginning such as I Wanna be Ready and Revelations. He has toured all around the United States and Europe dancing not only Alvin Ailey’s famous choreography but other exceptional pieces by Robert Battle, Sidra Bell, Troy Powell, Stefanie Batten, Steven Rooks, Vernard Gilmore, Ronald K Brown, Elisa Monte, Donald Byrd, and George Faison.
