The Suzanne Farrell Ballet |
| "The marvelous Jennifer Founier
and Chan Hon Goh are both Balanchine specialists, and
are frequent guest performers with Suzanne Farrell's company
when the great Balanchine muse sets her mentor's work
at Washington's Kennedy Center. Needless to say, the cunning
manipulation of their supple bodies made Balanchine's
contortionist choreography look easy." |

Peter Boal & Company |
| "Ms Goh was light and jazzy as
Terpsichore...The crowd gasped in awe at the "swimming"
section and the "sunburst" ending of Apollo
and appreciated the chance to experience top-flight dance
outside of New York City." |

| Romeo and Juliet pas de deux |
August 19, 2004 |
Brott Music Festival |
| "The dance, courtesy of ravishing
siren Chan Hon Goh and her slim-hipped partner Guillaume
Côté, elevated the rapture of young love
to exquisite heights. Not only did these National Ballet
dancers create the heart-stopping passion associated with
Romeo and Juliet, they did it on a hopelessly linear stage
threatening to defy them at every turn." |

| The Four Seasons |
May 24, 2004 |
National Ballet of Canada |
| “…As the seasons unfolded,
the lead ballerinas assigned to each – Chan Hon
Goh, Greta Hodgkinson and Martine Lamy – became
emotional landmarks in the central character’s passage
through life…” |

|
| “…Kudelka’s brilliant
work. From the gentle delicacy of innocent spring (Chan
Hon Goh)…his leading ladies and the rest of the
fine ensemble gave a performance of a lifetime.”
|

| “As spring, Chan Hon Goh offered
the lightness and litheness of youth in her union with

| Cruel World |
May 21, 2004 |
National Ballet of Canada |
| “In 1994’s Cruel World,
Kudelka’s densely intricate footwork and dangerous
partnering…propelled by Tchaikovsky’s romantic,
but melancholy music…Chan Hon Goh and Ryan Boorne
touched the heart with their crumbling relationship.”

| Serenade |
February 20, 2004 |
National Ballet of Canada |
| “They did the Balanchine masterwork
proud. Dancers Chan Hon Goh, Martine Lamy, Stephanie Hutchison,
Rex Harrington and Patrick Lavoie fronted a corps de ballet
that was operating at close to the peak of precision perfection.” |
John Coulbourn
The Toronto Sun
|
|
| “…conductor Ormsby Wilkins
led Tchaikovsky music at such a clip that the dancers
were running for their lives, the principal interpreters
overcame the speed with very strong and well though-out
performances. Chan Hon Goh, Martine Lamy and Stephanie
Hutchison were marvelous.” |
Paula Citron
The Globe and Mail
|
|
| “…It is led magnificently
by the ethereal Chan Hon Goh, Martine Lamy and Rex Harrington,
making this a transcendent evening of dance.” |
