 The Faber pocket guide to ballet.
Author: Bull, Deborah & Luke Jennings Published: 2004 An easy to use guide to classical ballet, spanning nearly two centuries of classical dance, with descriptive entries for more than eighty works from the repertoires of ballet companies around the world. Its features include plot summaries, an analysis of each ballet's principal themes, background and historical information, and, from Ms Bull, a performer's-eye view of many of the works. [Intending purchasers should note, however, that throughout the book, an unfortunate publisher's error has changed each instance of the phrase pas de trois to pas de deux. |
