Dancing in the vortex, the story of Ida Rubinstein.
Author: Woolf, Vicki Published: 2000 Virtually untrained as a dancer, Ida Rubinstein's qualities as a performer warranted her a place in the first triumphant Parisian season of the Ballets Russes, and her charisma and creative energy attracted collaborators of the quality of Debussy, Stravinsky, Ravel, Cocteau, Bakst, and Benois. This book gives a long-awaited insight into the life of a remarkable woman. |
