Diaghilev's empire : how the Ballets Russes enthralles the world (engelsk)


Beskrivelse


Serge Diaghilev had a dream of bringing Russian art, music, design and expression to the West, and a mission to drive a cultural and artistic revolution. Its radical style usurped the entrenched mores of traditional ballet and transformed the European cultural sphere at large. This book presents a researched and challenging reassessment of a unique phenomenon, exploring passionate conflicts and outsize personalities in a story embracing triumph and disaster.
