This engrossing book is the first full-length study of one of the greatest artistic collaborations in history.Drawing on extensive new research, Charles M. Joseph discusses the Stravinsky-Balanchine ballets against a rich contextual backdrop. He explores the background and psychology of the two men, the dynamics of their interactions, their personal and professional similarities and differences, and the political and historical circumstances that conditioned their work. He describes the dancers, designers, and sponsors with whom they worked. He explains the two men's approach to the creative process and the genesis of each of the collaborative ballets, demolishing much received wisdom on the subject. And he analyzes selected sections of music and dance, providing examples of Stravinsky's working sketches and other helpful illustrative materials. Engagingly written, the book will be of great interest not only to music and dance historians but also to ballet lovers everywhere.Stravinsky and BalanchineBalletChoreographyBallet.Choreography.781.5/56/092Joseph Charles M1493414MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777863803321Stravinsky & Balanchine3716391UNINA
