2021
352 страниц
The present book is the first comprehensive study of the best known among Prokofiev’s ballets. Over several decades, the history of how the ‘woeful story’ of the ballet’s staging culminated in fantastic triumphs has become a theatrical legend almost as exciting as Shakespeare’s play. Though the established facts and scholarly discoveries cannot compete with its hypnotic charm, they can supplement the intricate storyline, making its details and nuances more well-defined. The book is illustrated by rare musical, literary and pictorial materials from Russian and foreign archives. |
