Due to this quality he was able to jump higher and longer than any other male dancer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2922868706165678396.post-31364118851708868422010-11-28T04:45:55.876-05:002010-11-28T04:45:55.876-05:00I just LOVE coming over here to learn something, a...I just LOVE coming over here to learn something, and you never disappoint David!

I have to say that extraordinary people like Anna Pavlova Nijinsky, Diaghilev will always be the pride and glory of Russia and the only good of the most terrible times Russia had to go through in the past century.

I have always wondered how she would sound and wasn't aware of this.<br /><br />Sam, I would like to see the results of your inspiration. One Mardi Gras I went dressed as Nijinsky in L'apres.

I didn'...Thanks for this special holiday treat. I didn't realize Nijinsky lived to that late a date. I also haven't seen as many photos of him. It's a shame that Nijinsky isn't on film, but I think Diaghilev was correct.<br /><br />That reminds me of Queen Victoria, who sent recorded greetings to other heads of state, but demanded that they then be immediately destroyed, knowing that otherwise they'd be played for entertainment. No recording is left.Mark D. Ruffnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09241533547309049140noreply@blogger.com
