Belle-epoque Paris witnessed the emergence of a vibrant and diverse
dance scene, one that crystallized around the Ballets Russes, the
Russian dance company formed by impresario Sergey Diaghilev. The
company has long served as a convenient turning point in the
history of dance, celebrated for its revolutionary choreography and
innovative productions. This book presents a fresh slant on this
much-told history. Focusing on the relation between music and
dance, Davinia Caddy approaches the Ballets Russes with a
wide-angled lens that embraces not just the choreographic, but also
the cultural, political, theatrical and aesthetic contexts in which
the company made its name. In addition, Caddy examines and
interprets contemporary French dance practices, throwing new light
on some of the most important debates and discourses of the day.
