Описание: In this engaging history of dance, readers are introduced to the major performers, choreographers, and composers who influenced the development of ballet. Beginning with the birth of the art in the sixteenth-century French court of Catherine d Medici, this informative text traces ballet as it evolved in Europe and Russia, and subsequently in England and then the United States. Included are details about the creation of such classics as Giselle, Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty, and Serenade, as well as the contributions of such prominent figures as Pavlova, Nijinsky, Balanchine, and Ashton. Fascinating facts include inside looks at contemporary ballet companies, how toe shoes are made, and what a professional dancers day is like. All in all, a delightful, enjoyable, and informative historical overview that will delight anyone who enjoys the art of dance. Trudy Garfunkel, is the author of three books on dance: Letter to the World: The Life and Dances of Martha Graham, Start Exploring Ballet, and On Wings of Joy: The Story of Ballet from the 16th Century to Today; and a consumers guide with recipes, The Kosher Companion. Her essay on Martha Graham appears in The Oxford Companion to United States History. A public relations, marketing and editorial consultant, she has worked with many authors, artists, photographers, publishing companies, nonprofit and arts organizations, museums, and dance companies.
