Nick WOW! ! ! Even Vera Stravinsky. How great to see all of these people in this video. Some of the them more scary than Diaghilev himself. It seems they all were
hi drrabner47 - it was fun to put all these little interviews together - and yes i think they were all pretty in awe of diaghilev - he was such a strong and determined personality! glad you liked it, nick
Fantastic footage Nick! Ninette de Valois comments made me smile, she is herself pretty scary I think I would be in awe of her. Thanks for sharing. I notice some of your films have gone missing out of my favourites, glad to see you are still posting "gems".
hi ai51inn - i cobbled together these various interviews with people who'd had first hand contact with diaghilev cos it brings him alive in a unique way.
yes, i lost around 200 uploads and am re-posting them at the moment - may take a bit of time but it should be finished soon enough
if there are any films you particularly miss, tell me and i'll upload them soon
hi ai51inn - i've just uploaded the Margot Fonteyn and Rudolph Nureyev in Act 1 of 'Giselle' during their Australian tour of 1964 - i hope this is the film you wanted to see - their other 1962 'Giselle' seems to still be on the channel, best, nick
Fantastic video , Nick... Every of them are stars..... I adore every of them.... And they are reminiscing Mr.Dioaghelev...Priceless... Thank you........
hi Tamara02031919 - it's great hearing people talk about direct experience they've had with diaghilev - brings him alive in a way that reading about him cannot. best as usual, nick
I loved her! Doubrovska! So Beautiful.
