Περιγραφή για Diaghilev's Empire: How the Ballets Russes Enthralled the World Rupert Christiansen Faber & Faber

\'Deliciously entertaining.\' Financial Times\'Scintillating . . . fizzes with balletic energy.\' Daily Mail\'Gripping . . . bursting with extraordinary characters and anecdotes.\' Sunday Telegraph\'An extraordinary tale, enthrallingly told.\' GramophoneSuch was the credo of the ruthlessly manipulative and resourceful Serge Diaghilev - the Russian impresario who created the modern art form of ballet. Commissioning such legendary names as Nijinsky, Fokine, Stravinsky and Picasso, he produced a series of radically original works that had a revolutionary impact throughout the Western world. Off stage there was scandal and sensation, collaboration and competition, tempestuous affairs and a wild carousel of mayhem.The Ballet Russes left a matchless artistic legacy, ending with the abrupt death of Diaghilev in 1929. But the achievements of its heroic prime would continue to set the standards for the next era. Σελίδες: 384, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
