Writings on Ballet and Music by Fedor Lopukhov
Although little-known in the West, Fedor Lopukhov was a leading figure in Russia's dance world for more than 60 years and an influence on many who became major figures in western dance, such as George Balanchine. As a choreographer, he staged the first post-revolutionary productions of traditional ballets like ""Swan Lake"" and ""The Sleeping Beauty"" as well as avant-garde and experimental works, including ""Dance Symphony"",""Bolt"" and a highly controversial version of ""The Nutcracker"". This first publication in English of Lopukhov's theoretical writings offers readers a clear understanding of his seminal importance in dance history and illuminate his role in the development of dance as a non-narrative, musically based form.| SKU | Unavailable |
