Leonid Fyodorovich Myasin (Russian: Леони́д Фёдорович Мя́син), better known in the West by the French transliteration as Léonide Massine (9 August [O.S. 28 July] 1896 – 15 March 1979), was a Russian choreographer and ballet dancer. Massine created the world's first symphonic ballet, Les Présages, and many others in the same vein. Besides his "symphonic ballets," Massine choreographed many other popular works during his long career, some of which were serious and dramatic, and others lighthearted and romantic. He created some of his most famous roles in his own comic works, among them the Can-Can Dancer in La Boutique fantasque (1919), the Hussar in Le Beau Danube (1924), and, perhaps best known of all, the Peruvian in Gaîté Parisienne (1938).
Léonide Massine was born in Moscow and was a ballet student at the Imperial Theater School in that city.
From 1915 to 1921 he was the principal choreographer of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes.
This is a rough cut of an unfinished doc I produced in 1971 featuring the famous Ballets Russes choreographer. I met Massine in 1970 when I asked him to be a patron of my attempt to mount a production of Erik Satie's surrealist ballet Relache (whose Entr'acte, a film by Rene Clair, I had accompanied at the NFT as a silent film pianist). He invited me to his island in the Gulf of Salerno that summer. There we hatched the idea of a series of video-cassettes (at that stage a vapour-ware medium!) which would contain his 'late thoughts' as a choreographer. I came back to the UK fired up with the idea. During the next 6 months the project coalesced into making a documentary re-establishing Massine's position in the public mind. With a great more enthusiasm than realism I begged and borrowed t...
Massine was his own worst enemy in a uniquely Russian way - as his career showed! Anyway I came home with some reasonable footage -- but that was where my education in the facts of life really began. In 1971 there was NO independent market for arts film. (I was blinded by the success of my supporter Chris Nupen, an ex-BBC producer, the first person to succeed as an independent tx2 his relationships with Dupré/Barenboim & John Williams.) And the brutal truth was you either had a deal with the BBC or LWT Aquarius - or you didnt have a film. There was no C4. At the BBCtv I was stuffed by John Drummond, then i/c Music programming, who I came to realise was only interested in buying my film in order to cannibalise it into an unfinished Massine film of his own. And as soon as I offered it to A...

El sombrero de tres picos (The Three-Cornered Hat or Le tricorne) is a ballet choreographed by Léonide Massine to music by Manuel de Falla, commissioned by Sergei Diaghilev and premiered complete in 1919. It is not only a ballet with Spanish setting but one that also employs the techniques of Spanish dance (adapted and somewhat simplified) instead of classical ballet. The story – a magistrate infatuated with a Miller's faithful wife attempts to seduce her – derives from the novella by Pedro Antonio de Alarcón (born in Granada) and has been traced in film several times, usually in Spanish. The music has these sections: Introducción y escena — Introduction and Scene La tarde — Afternoon Danza de la molinera (Farruca) — Dance of the Miller's Wife Las uvas — The Grapes Da...

La consagración de la primavera es una obra musical para orquesta compuesta en 1913 por el compositor ruso Ígor Stravinski. El autor la compuso como parte integrante de la serie de ballets creados para la compañía de Serguéi Diáguilev, «Les Ballets Russes», presentados en París en la década de 1910, entre los que también se encuentran El pájaro de fuego y Petrushka. Stravinsky era un joven, prácticamente desconocido compositor cuando Diáguilev lo reclutó para crear trabajos para los Ballets Rusos. La consagración fue el tercer proyecto de este tipo, después del aclamado El pájaro de fuego (1910) y Petrushka (1911). El concepto detrás de La consagración de la primavera, desarrollado por Roerich desde la idea de esquema de Stravinsky, es sugerido por su subtítulo, «Imágenes de la Rusia pagan...

The Rite of Spring (French: Le Sacre du printemps, Russian: «Весна священная», Vesna svyashchennaya) is a ballet and orchestral concert work by the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky. It was written for the 1913 Paris season of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company; the original choreography was by Vaslav Nijinsky, with stage designs and costumes by Nicholas Roerich. When first performed, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913, the avant-garde nature of the music and choreography caused a sensation and a near-riot in the audience. Although designed as a work for the stage, with specific passages accompanying characters and action, the music achieved equal if not greater recognition as a concert piece, and is widely considered to be one of the most influential musical works of t...
