Synopsis
With evident care, Stanley J. Rabinowitz has edited and translated this first English-language collection of the writings of Akim Volynsky. Volynsky was a n passionate critic whose spirited writings bring to new life the early 20th-century Russian balletic arts. His fervor in describing some of the great dancers--Anna Pavlova and Olga Spessivtseva were two of his most beloved--is that of someone enraptured by these women's beauty and artistry. His poetic descriptions of particular positions sparkle with originality and insight. With his words, Volynsky displays as much virtuosity and grace as the ballerinas he so loves.

Industry reviews
This is a fantastic book...Volynsky's...uncompromising, impassioned stance is a refreshing reminder of classical ballet's ability to transcend the corporeal..."
 (01/25/2009)

"How exciting to hear a contemporaneous voice commenting on live performances, atristry that for the most part exists only in still and stilted studio photographs...There is no sepia tint to Volynsky's reporting. His voice is authoritative, erudite, and exacting...[This] collection is full of surprises."
 (02/01/2009)
