George Balanchine was just twenty-one when he created Le Chant du Rossignol, his first work for Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes. He would choreograph dozens of pieces for the stage before he turned thirty. Hodson and Archer have reconstructed five of the major works that were nearly lost to time. This bijou book is the first in the series Balanchine's Twenties by Trapeze Press.
