Svetloff written and printed for this collection. ALL THE PROGRAMMES ARE THE ORIGINAL PRINTINGS collected and bound here in this special compilation which presents a selection of extracts from the magazines together with the souvenir programmes that were published as supplements arranged in chronological order. This work vividly documents the famous ballet company that premiered such groundbreking productions as Igor Stravinsky's Firebird Petrushka Rite of Spring Parade etc.<br><br>Among the most important of all the publications present is the magnificent May 1917 "Th�atre du Chatelet" separate publication mainly devoted to the ballet "Parade" which constitutes one of the most important publications in the history of modern art. It is here in his presentation-article to "Parade" that Apollinaire coins the term "surrealism" and thus lays the foundation for the seminal cultural movement that Br�ton came to lead. Furthermore the ballet "Parade" represents a historical collaboration between several of the leading artistic minds of the early twentieth century: Erik Satie Jean Cocteau Pablo Picasso L�onide Massine and Serge Diaghilev and is especially famous not only for its contents and its music but also for its magnificent costumes designed by Picasso the drawings of which are presented in the present publication for the first time - most famously the front cover for the "Parade"-programme which depicts the "Costume de Chinois du ballet "Parade"/ aquarelle de Picasso" an etching with original stunning pochoir-colouring hand-painted by Picasso himself!.<br><br>This one programme epitomizes the importance and infuence of the magnificent "Comoedia Illustr�" of which all the most important contributions are collected here in this one stunning volume. This amazing ballet monthly was published in Paris between 1908 and 1921. The special issues are generally speaking the most important ones as they were often devoted to the annual Paris season of Serge Diaghilev's Balletes Russes and Ida Rubinstein's Galas Russes and document the amazing endeavours of these. These groundbreaking special issues the May 1917 being merely an example are geerally lavishly illustrated usually in full colour often heightened in gold with costume and set designs and enriched with portraits of the leading singers and dancers in the ballets. <br><br>The vast amount of colour illustrations throughout this collection includes contributions to the magnificent history of the Ballets Russes by such distinguished artists as Pablo Picasso and L�on Bakst. As the groundbreaking 1917 ballet "Parade" - the first of the modern ballets - originally presented for the first time in the present publication marks Picasso's entry into the public and bourgeois institutions of ballet and theatre and presents Cubism on the stage for the first time so Bakst's splendid costume and set designs depicted over numerous issues here for the first time presents the application of art nouveau design concepts to the stage. The present compilation of original publications presents an outright revolution in the history of art theatre and ballet on many levels.<br><br>The introductory leaves to each year are almost all written by Svetloff = Valerian Ivchenko who was a famous Russian critic and the first biographer of Anna Pavlova. hardcover

BALLETS RUSSES
Comœdia illustré No17: La Saison Russe a l'Opéra 1910.
Comœdia illustré Paris 1 June 1910. . Folio 31.8 x 24.5 cm. 32 pp. illustrated throughout. Original colour printed wrappers. Fine example of the special issue of the Comoedia Illustré dedicated to the second Russian season in Paris performed at the beautiful Grand Opéra. The 1910 programme featured newly created pieces such as Giselle Les Orientales and Le Carnaval and previously staged ballets like Le Festin Les Sylphides and Cléopâtre. The star of the season was young Stravinsky's Firebird which was first performed on 25 June 1910 and became an instant success with both audience and critics. Another piece produced specially for the second season was Schéhérazade. Described by Alexander Benois as 'a wonderful spectacle to which I can hardly find a parallel' it was the first true creation of the Ballet Russes because except for the opera Prince Igor all the other ballets in Diaghilev's first Paris season were new versions of already existing works. For financial reasons Diaghilev could not include any opera in his 1910 season The cover of the 1910 issue features the famous colour photograph of Nijinsky and Karsavina in the ballet Les Sylphides. A four-page article titled La saison russe à l'Opéra presents the pieces scheduled for the season and shows pictures of some of the most famous Russian dancers – such as Fokina and Nijinsky – in their beautiful costumes designed by Leon Bakst. Comoedia Illustré was a bimonthly artistic magazine published from 1908 to 1936 as a supplement to Comoedia. The latter was a French cultural periodical founded by Henri Desgrange a French cyclist and sports journalist who gained fame as the first organiser of the Tour de France. Comoedia Illustré played a crucial role in popularising Russian ballet and making the programmes of Russian seasons available to a French public hungry for Russian exotics.

BALLETS RUSSES
La Revue Musicale - Les Ballets Russes de Serge de Diaghilew.
Paris 1930. . 8vo. 25.5 x 19.5 cm. XII 112 pp. illustrated throughout in both colour and black and white some leaves uncut. Original publisher's wrappers. Fine copy of an illustrated Revue Musicale issue dedicated to the Ballets Russes with a special tribute to Diaghilev who had died the previous year. It contains testimonials memories of friends and collaborators such as Gabriel Astruc Alexandre Benois Robert Brussel Michel Georges-Michel Émile Henriot Louis Laloy Michel Larionov the Comtesse de Noailles and Gilbert de Voisins. Of great interest are the numerous illustrations that run through the issue. These include reproductions of drawings e.g. Jean Cocteau's sketching of Diaghilev and Nijinsky as well as Bakst's costume designs etchings e.g. Picasso's etching of star dancer Leonid Massine and photographs of ballet sets scenes and dancers. In his concluding article Prunières summarized Diaghilev's contribution to the worlds of music and dance as follows: "For almost 20 years the Ballets Russes provided us with new things in the realms of music visual art and choreography every year. Aesthetic issues that seemed eternally debated in the inner sancta of Montparnasse and Montmartre were taken before the mass public. Each season came to call into question all that we previous believed to have been said already. . One might say that all of musical and artistic life depended in large part on this extraordinary man." Edited between 1920 and 1940 by Henry Prunières 1886–1942 La revue musicale is considered to be one of the most important music periodicals published in France in the period between the World Wars. As such it offers a remarkable portrait of musical activity in France. The magazine addressed not only musicologists but a much wider audience. Paris, 1930. unknown

Ballets Russes Bolm Adolph. 1884a1951 Bakst Leon. 1866a1924 Hoppe Emil Otto. 1878a1972
Adolf Bolm in Thamar Monsieur Adolph Bolm Thamar - Original Photograph
Used; Like New/Used; Like New. Striking original vintage sepia toned gelatin photograph of the important dancer ca. 1912. Stamped "ADOLPH BOLM / 'THAMAR' / SERGE de DIAGHILEFF'S BALLET RUSSE" on the verso in violet ink. Right edge trimmed irregularly small loss to upper left corner light spotting else in fine condition. 5.2 x 8 inches 13.2 x 20.3 cm<br style="">An early associate of Anna Pavlova Adolphe Bolm later was a major figure in Diaghilev's Ballet Russes. An injury sustained during this US tour lead him to leave the company and remain in the US where he went on to organize "Ballet Intime" and collaborate with the New York Metropolitan Opera. He is shown in the present image in the 1912 Ballets Russes production of "Thamar" in a costume by Leon Bakst.<br>In the ballet with music by Balakirev and choreography by Michel Fokine the subject of the life of Thamar Queen of Georgia from 1184 to 1213 was transformed in the spirit of nineteenth-century Romanticism becoming a symbol of nationalist pride in the face of growing Russian cultural dominance in the Caucasus. Russian poet Mikhail Lermontov fictionalized Thamar's history within his interpretation of a Georgian legend of a malevolent seductress in his 1841 poem Tamara and it was this version along with Balakirev's symphonic poem Tamara that inspired Bakst and Fokine for the Ballets Russes production. Bakst's looming set dramatized Thamar's isolated court in her castle in the treacherous Terek River and provided a stark background for his sumptuous and richly detailed costumes for the queen her courtiers guards and suitors.  The men's costumes are based on the traditional Caucasian cherkeska Circassian coat or kaftan with beshmet underdress. <br style="">German born photographer E. O. Hoppé moved to London in 1902 at the age of 24 to work for the Deutsche Bank. He was elected member of the Royal Photographic Society in 1903 and became one of the most important portrait and documentary photographers of his time. E. O. Hoppé spent most of his life in England or travelling the rest of the world on assignments. The present photograph was published as a gravure in Hoppé's 1913 Fine Art Society London volume "Studies from the Russian Ballet" the photographer's first major publication. At a time when ballet was highly popular he photographed most of the leading members of Serge Diaghilev's Russian Ballet in London and the present image of Bolm is one of his most celebrated images. <br style=""> unknown books

Ballets Russes Diaghilev Sergey Pavlovich. 18721929 Pergolesi Giovanni Battista. 17101736 Wassenaer Count Unico Wilhelm van.
Six Concertinos Attributed to Pergolesi AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT PREPARED FOR AND INSCRIBED BY DIAGHILEV
Used; Like New/Used; Like New. Bound collection of 6 concertinos for 4 violins viola cello and basso continuo in score copied from a manuscript at the Conservatoire de Paris as prepared for and subsequently inscribed by Sergei Diaghilev. Long attributed to Italian Baroque composer Pergolesi these pieces are a famous case of reattribution within the canon of classical music having been identified in recent decades as the work of the Dutch composer and statesman Count Unico Wilhelm van Wassenaer. Half a century before this musicological consensus had been established Diaghilev wrote his opinion in an inscription on the cover of the present manuscript translated as follows from the French:<br style="">"In my opinion only the sixth last concertino was composed by Pergolesi. The others are of different authors who have nothing in common with him. I believe the autograph score does not exist and that the copy at the Conservatoire de Paris is the sole known copy that belongs to <lacuna>. These works are found in no library in Italy. It is especially strange that they are not to be found in Naples. The quality of the music of these three concertini is very unequal and one recognizes Pergolesi solely in the last part of the last concertino which was composed wholly by him the Adagio movement recalling his serenades etc. S. Diaghilev 1918."<br style="">"à mon avis il n'y a que le 6me dernier Concertino qui est composé par Pergolesi. Les autres sont de différents auteurs qui n'ont rien de commun avec lui. Je crois que le partition autographe n'existe pas et que l'exemplaire du Conservatoire de Paris est la copie de l'unique exemplaire connu qui appartient à <lacuna>. Dans aucune Bibliothèque d'Italie ces oeuvres ne se trouvent pas. Il est étrange surtout qu'on ne les trouve pas à Naples. La qualité de musique de ces concertini est très inégale et l'on reconnait Pergolesi seulement dans la dernière partie du dernier concertino qui fait être tout entier composé par lui mouvement d'Adagio rappelant ses serenades etc. S. Diaghilev. 1918."<br style="">24 pages bound in a single gathering 10 1/2 à 13 3/4 inches 27 à 35 cm closed. Each page ruled neatly in 16 staves. Notation neatly penned in the hand of the copyist L. Mathieu who has stamped lower right corner of cover: "'Copie musicale et littéraire' L. Mathieu 30 rue Legendre Paris." Diaghilev himself has further inscribed at the base of the page "Copiés d'après le manuscrit se trouvant au Conservatoire de Musique de Paris / 1917. SergeiDIaghilev" Purple ownership stamp in lower right corner of cover of Serge Lifar obtained at the sale of his library. Outer sheets cover and last page of music ever so slightly darker than openings else very fine throughout. <br style="">Diaghilev the great impresario of the Ballets Russes is best known for his prescient assemblage of extraordinarily promising composers artists choreographers and dancers. Perhaps Diaghilev's most famous musical innovation was his suggestion to Stravinsky that he set some themes by Giovanni Pergolesi or at least some music as here that was then believed to be by Pergolesi. The result was Pulcinella making Diaghilev at least partly responsible for the transition from Igor Stravinsky's Russian period to his Neoclassical period and the subsequent broader 1920s fascination with neo-classicism.  The present manuscript offers a glimpse into Diaghilev's central own role in evaluating projects for his ensemble since his inscriptions of 1917 and 1918 two/three years before the Ballets Russes production of Pulcinella so clearly demonstrate his interest in Pergolesi and the commedia dell'arte. unknown books

On hearing his 1921 incidental music for Molière's comédie-ballet Les fâcheux Diaghilev asked him to transform it into a ballet. First performed in Monte Carlo . it shows a facility for mood creation and a virtuosity in the manipulation of highly varied material that presages his film music. Other successful ballets followed: Les matelots 1924 and La pastorale 1925 for Diaghilev Les enchantements de la fée d'Alcine 1928 for Ida Rubinstein ." Jeremy Drake in Grove Music Online. <br/><br/>Examples of Les Facheux on Hollande van Gelder with particularly strong color to the plates are quite rare with no copies recorded in ABPC as having coming to auction since at least 1977.
