Anna Pavlova filmed dancing 'Dionysus' (1925)

[nomoretwist1]

This piece was filmed at Fiarbanks studio in 1925, the background scene is thought to be that of 'Don Q. Son of Zorro' filmed that year. This piece has been listed as 'Greek Dance' and is most likely from her ballet 'Dionysus' with music by Tcherepine and choreography by Clustine

hi nomoretwist1 - thanks very much again - my googling skills for the background to some of this footage is obviously very inferiour! as much as amything what's most interesting for me at least is the music - makes some sense of the choreography. do you know waht the music is that has been added by the russian documentary makers here? best, nick
