A transformative force in music, dance and the visual arts, the Ballets Russes was founded in Paris in 1909 by the visionary impresario Serge Diaghilev. Innovative and flamboyant, he had a genius for bringing together the most brilliant composers, dancers, choreographers, and designers, for nurturing creativity, and for galvanizing audiences. Emblematic of the influence of the Ballets Russes was the 1913 premiere of Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du Printemps: it caused a notorious scandal, but it also changed musical history.

Who are the leading dancers in "Le Noces", please?

[@christinebrady6611]

Very little comment about the choreographer, Bronislava Nijinska?

[@loge10]

This is where I would ask the question, does the post succeed in what it seeks out to do? I believe it does. It's about the musical work, not the ballet as a whole. To include more about Nijinska and even the choreography/staging would bring a loss of focus, especially with the length of the post and the fact that all the visuals are stills.
