Agrippina Vaganova (1879-1951) is revered as the visionary who
first codified the Russian system of classical ballet training. The
Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet, founded on impeccable technique
and centuries of tradition, has a reputation for elite standards,
and its graduates include Mikhail Baryshnikov, Rudolf Nureyev,
Natalia Makarova, and Diana Vishneva. Yet the ""Vaganova method""
has come under criticism in recent years. In this absorbing volume,
Catherine Pawlick traces Vaganova's story from her early years as a
ballet student in tsarist Russia to her career as a dancer with the
Mariinsky (Kirov) Ballet to her work as a pedagogue and
choreographer. Pawlick then goes beyond biography to address
Vaganova's legacy today, offering the first-ever English
translations of primary source materials and intriguing interviews
with pedagogues and dancers from the Academy and the Mariinsky
Ballet, including some who studied with Vaganova herself.
