“Russian Ballet Diaghilev” is the famous monograph by Lynn Garatols - professor at the Department of Dance of the Columbia University, a member of the American Academy of Art and Science, a leading specialist in the history of Russian ballet.
“The story of the ballet of the twentieth century did not know the troupe, which would leave in it as a deep and influential trace as the Russian Ballet Diaghilev. It lasted only twenty years - from 1909 to 1929 - but over these two decades he managed to turn ballet into living, contemporary art ... Throughout its entire existence, this troupe was the center of attraction of bright, talented, exclusive personalities. But one figure towered over everyone else - Sergey Diaghilev, an outstanding impresario, who led the Russian ballet from the first days of its occurrence until its death in 1929. He was a man of iron will and extremely subtle taste, possessing encyclopedic knowledge and passionate curiosity - a kind of Napoleon from the arts - and with this the personality of the scale of the Renaissance. ”
