Pressestimmen
"'Fascinating' is the word for this ground-breaking account of Balanchine's formative years, infused with tenderness, brio, wit and compassionate insight. Elizabeth Kendall is one of our foremost dance critics and historians, and she has outdone herself here, capturing, via original research, dazzling descriptions and acute syntheses, the sensual color and flavor of that lost, magical milieu."-Phillip Lopate "Balanchine and the Lost Muse reveals more about the choreographer's early life than any previous book. With skill and imagination, Elizabeth Kendall peels away the layers of a complicated, unhappy family life, shows us an adolescent fired with idealism for his chosen art, and evokes the memories of dances and dancers - like the ballerina muse Lidia Ivanova, who died only days before he left Russia - that haunted his choreography for decades."--Lynn Garafola, author of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes and Professor of Dance, Barnard College "In this beautifully written and extensively researched account of Balanchine's early years and the mysterious and untimely death of ballerina Lidia Ivanova, Elizabeth Kendall recreates an era and gives us new insight into Balanchine the genius and innovator, and by anchoring her narrative firmly in a larger political and historical context, gives us an invaluable picture of the Russian cultural scene at the beginning of the last century. Required reading for anyone interested in one of ballet's great masters or simply fans of first-rate, flawless writing."--Allegra Kent, former Principal dancer, New York City ballet, author of Once a Dancer"The book reads like a detective novel, but has pages of luminous writing about the choreographer and his ballet." --Dance Magazine"'Fascinating' is the word for this ground-breaking account of Balanchine's formative years, infused with tenderness, brio, wit and compassionate insight.

Ms. Kendall, who knows both Russia and Russian well, offers some of the loveliest prose in recent dance writing." -- Wall Street Journal"[H]er history of ballet in the early post-Revolutionary period is very valuable, as Balanchine told us little about his youth." -- The New Yorker "The book reads like a detective novel, but has pages of luminous writing about the choreographer and his ballet." --Dance Magazine "Elizabeth Kendall has unearthed the world of Balanchine's childhood. For this alone we owe her a great debt... [H]er book is not only a portrait of Balanchine's youth, it is a portrait of Russia in collapse - of the world that was dying as Balanchine was coming of age." -New York Review of Books "There is no doubt that Balanchine and the Lost Muse is the last word on this period of Balanchine's life" -Weekly Standard "'Fascinating' is the word for this ground-breaking account of Balanchine's formative years, infused with tenderness, brio, wit and compassionate insight.

This book is interesting for the period it describes: life in pre-revolutionary Russia and the birthpains of the Maryinsky ballet School at that time.You learn something about Balanchine, i.e. how he was chosen to enter the famous school, his early leanings towards choreography and the fate of many dancers, some known, some unknown during this period. All of this is very interesting, especially the historical part of how Russia goes from a Czarist regime to one of disorder, anarchy, hunger and suffering. However, the main gist of the book is on this somewhat unknown ballerina who Kendall claims was Balanchine's inspiration. Although the details of her life are very interesting there is little proof, at least in the book that she was "balanchine's muse". Balanchine seems to have been an aloof, detached figure all his life, from childhood on and there is very little investigation into the workings of the man's mind and soul, perhaps because he was so aloof and perhaps, in the long run, very few if any, got to know the real Balanchine. Perhaps this is true of all geniuses. Still a good book, but not a great one.
This was the most comprehensive study of Balanchine's early life I've ever read. His family tree, his school days and his early marriage and career. It describes his amazingly rich background in music, dance and the changing culture of the time. His first muse and her affect on his life and his early works of genius are carefully and lovingly described. Elizabeth Kendall is a scholar who has written a spellbinding book.
This is a fascinating read, one I couldn't stop until finishing the story that centers on George Balanchine but goes deeply on his life when he entered ballet school unwillingly as a child and follows him through the period of revolution and unrest in St. Petersburg for 10 years. Detailed research is the basis for a story that would be unbelievable if not based on evidence obtained by the author in three languages. As she speculates toward the end about how the early experiences may have shaped Balanchine's creative work in America, I am willing to consider these possibilities when I see the ballets again. And the story of the lost muse, Lidia Ivanova, who never lived long enough to be famous in the world outside Russia's turbulent world during her adolescence.
This is an important book for anyone interested in Balanchine's works and early life. The author has a poetic imagination and gives substantive details about Balanchine's early works. She gives a fascinating account of Lidia Ivanova, and describes the incredibly stressful and chaotic environment in which these young artists found themselves during and after the 1917 revolution(s).
If you are a fan of early 20th century ballet and the cast of characters who created it? This book does not disappoint! The author paints a vivid picture of a tumultuous time in history and the arts, a time that formed incredible performers and was the beginning of a shift in ballet, with Balanchine at the epicentre.
