| REVIEW An interesting compilation written in the late 1970's. There are over 45 ballet or dance companys showcased in the book, with 142 black and white photographs in the 280 pages. Not intended to be a history or comprehensive listing of all ballet or dance companies, focus is on those deemed most popular or influential at the time of the books printing. Information about those that appear includes: a short history of the company, Directors, Ballet and Assistant Ballet Masters, Artistic Directors, Regisseurs, Dancers (or in some cases only principals), Repertoire (including choreographer credit), and Touring. An impressive compilation of relevant information that shows if anything the incredibly active 1970's ballet scene. Given the necessary brevity to keep the book from becoming huge, there is an impressive amount of information both in text and visually. Each company is given several pages and the book can be opened and read from almost any page. The organization of the book, a table of contents, and inclusion of an index make finding information very easy. |
