‎CURRENT CONVICTIONS: VIEWS AND REVIEWS‎

‎New York City NY: Alfred A. Knopf 1977. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine Dust Jacket. New York City NY: Alfred A. Knopf 1977. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. First Edition/First Printing. 340 pages. Retrospective collection of essays. One of the most important essay collections on music literature and the performing arts of the 20th century. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. There is no ISBN. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Robert Craft's "Current Convictions: Views And Reviews". All in all still his best collection. Previously published in various publications in slightly or significantly different versions. The essays appear in their final definitive form in this book. Best-known as Igor Stravinsky's lifelong and fanatically loyal friend colleague interpreter/conductor and amanuensis Robert Craft is also a music and literary critic of the first rank. This collection demonstrates that fact and covers the stunning breadth of interests of Robert Craft Renaissance Man that is to say the vanishing embodiment of civilized learning and wisdom now missing in impoverished contemporary culture. An absolute "must-have" title for Robert Craft collectors. This copy is very prominently neatly and beautifully signed placed and dated in black ink-pen on the front free endpaper by the author: "Robert Craft New York May 1984". It is signed directly on the page itself not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great collection. As far as we know this is the only such signed placed and dated copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and despite its imperfection a ding on top front board corner but it's there is still in fine condition: The DJ and every single internal page are clean crisp and bright. Please note: Craft did NOT do a single public signing during his long and high-profile career as a public intellectual and music authority. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant critics of the 20th century. A fine copy. SEE ALSO OTHER ROBERT CRAFT AND IGOR STRAVINSKY TITLES IN OUR CATALOG. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover‎

"This is how a discerning mind thinks and every time I read a book by Robert Craft I can't help but to wonder why other writers lack his clarity of thought or fortitude of conviction.

‎APOLLO'S ANGELS: A HISTORY OF BALLET‎

‎New York City NY: Random House 2010. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New Dust Jacket. New York City NY: Random House 2010. Hardcover. As New/As New. First Edition/First Printing. 645 pages. Book-length account on subject. One of the best books on ballet ever written in our time. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now rare. Presents Jennifer Homans' "Apollo's Angels: A History of Ballet". Her deeply moving history of ballet. For Homans ballet is a metaphor for art itself. Ballet is not dance. Anyone can dance which is about life's vitality. Ballet demands the exact mediated opposite: Precision rigor purity. In a word art. Ballet - art - is about transcendence: The high leap we identify with ballet is transcendence itself about a higher and exalted state of being that we often call grace. "Grace" is now undervalued and rarely invoked in both demotic and hieratic discourse. There is no grace and a lot of vulgarity for example in contemporary culture as well as Ivory Tower academe. Like all great histories "Apollo's Angels" makes a larger point: A culture that does not have a notion of transcendence is an inferior one and will not have an enduring legacy. Often described as "Dionysian" "Le Sacre du Printemps" "The Rite of Spring" the sublime Nijinsky/Stravinsky collaboration that radically changed the course of ballet is instead "Apollonian" the re-presentation of primitive trance-ritual through ballet's highly formalized movements steps and gestures. The virgin sacrifice in "Le Sacre du Printemps" is the primal version of the sacrifice in "Swan Lake" and countless other ballets that the prima ballerina-heroine makes. An absolute "must-have" title for Jennifer Homans and ballet aficionado/collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws are subsequent printings or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus.
