Contemporary black vinyl 3-ring binder minor scuffing edgewear still VG exemplar. A wonderful original ballet directorâ€™s art direction notebook for the Peter Pan ballet staged in 1984 intended to offer young up-and-coming ballet students at the time to experience live performances and to unify Eastside/Westside Royal Academy of Dancing trained students. It would be 5 years before the Oregon Ballet and Pacific Ballet Theater would consolidate under the direction of James Canfield to form the Oregon Ballet Theatre. This ballet featured four acts divided into The Nursery Neverland Ship of the Pirates and Conclusion featuring solos by Wendy Tinker Bell Peter and Captain Hook over the length of the production. Dancers 4-5 years old were featured as the Neverland Fairies 5-7 years old with 2 years of training and pre-primary Royal Academy examinations behind them played Forest Fairies; Lost Children were 6-9 years old and had performed Barre and footwork; followed by the Pirates and soloists including Wendy Heather Miller Peter Pan Laura Spradlin Captain Hook Elizabeth Johnson and the mermaids drawn from the Lake Oswego School of Ballet under the directorship of Christine Donald. The original score by Anita Perry b. 1960 an up-and-coming Canadian composer out of British Columbia where she had studied piano with Lee Kum Sing and composition with Cortland Hultberg. In her early 20â€™s M. Perry had already won several composition awards was known for her original ballet works and wrote this score with orchestration for a variety of instruments â€œlending to the performance. . . a more closely approximated real environment experienced by professional dancers.â€ Peter Pan as a ballet required a fair amount of athleticism and as indicated here in Higginsâ€™s artistic directorâ€™s notebook required extensive choreography changes scene adjustments and revisions by M. Perry. Higgins studied and danced at the British Royal Ballet later with Elvie DeMarko 1924-1989 of Ballet Russe and then with Robert Barnett of the Atlanta Ballet. No similar notebooks or programs survive for this 1984 ballet and there are no recordings or printed musical scores this cataloguer could uncover.

192451696New York NY; Hollywood CA; Taos NM: Underwood & Underwood Anderson Lumiere Guard Vitaphone Studios Metropolitan Music Bureau 1924-1927. Twenty seven items. With 24 photographs 3 sized 3.5 x 5.5 in.; 6 sized 5 x 7.75 in.; 1 w/ colour-tinted blue sized 7.25 x 9.5 in.; 16 sized 8 x 10 in.; many w/ annotations dating the photos in pencil some of the press photos and studio photos stamped on versos with attached newsreel information blurbs many w/ text in negative at lower corner of image; 1 very large colour lithograph poster printed on linen showing the young opera star seated and colours of pink gold and black sized 40 x 80 in. w/ wood bars at upper & lower for hanging some minor creasing from rolling but in Fine condition; and TLS from Lawrence H. Smith at Underwood & Underwood Inc. News Picture Division to Miss Marion Talley. These photographs and giant lobby poster provide splendid artifacts for the lavish attention paid to a young star at the beginning of her career during the Jazz Age. The very large poster is a beautiful example of colour lithography showing her demurely seated against a pink lozenge background with advertisements at the foot of the poster for Steinway Piano and Victor Records. Marion Talley 1906-1983 was the daughter of a telegraph operator for the Missouri Pacific Railroad and by 15 she was appearing in the Kansas City Grand Opera Company of Mignon by Abroise Thomas and quickly became a local celebrity often performing benefit concerts. She studied with music teacher Frank LaForge famed soprano composer who maintained a close relationship with the Metropolitan Opera and was placed under contract in 1925 by Giulio Gatti-Casazza at age 19 becoming the youngest principal female performer in the Metâ€™s history to that point. Her debut performance was Feb. 17 1926 as Gilda the daughter of the title character in Verdiâ€™s Rigoletto. The press photos show her surrounded by the many flowers she received in the 18 encores her performance on stage meeting the opera diva Ernestine Schumann-Heinck d. 1936 as well as her appearance on radio with Marguerite Dâ€™Alvarez and Giovanni Martinelli singing Home! Sweet Home!. In addition she also starred in the first Vitaphone short sound films released in 1926 with Don Juan starring John Barrymore and another Vitaphone short performing â€œBella figlia dellâ€™amoreâ€ from Rigoletto but the critics were savage criticizing her performances and her lack of appeal on camera. During this period she traveled extensively to Europe and through the southwest as evidenced by the series of photos showing her in Taos with the burros young Native American children and adults in regalia as well as her automobile. The photo of the young star by Samuel Lumiere 1878-1971 is a very nice example of his portrait work during the height of the 1920s when he was under contract to shoot celebrities for the Chicago Tribune.

Tsar Saltan Première Saison Ballets Russes Legacy Bilibin Stage Design

192920354Paris: Opéra Privé de Paris 1929. Good/No Dust Jacket As Issued. RUSSIAN MODERNISM REBORN ON THE PARISIAN STAGE. A visually striking Première Saison program documenting the post-Diaghilev continuation of Russian operatic and theatrical culture in interwar Paris. Issued by the newly founded Opéra Privé de Paris in 1929 this richly illustrated production program for Rimsky-Korsakov's 'Tsar Saltan' preserves the artistic language of the Ballets Russes through tipped-in color costume and scenic designs after Ivan Bilibin and Alexandre Korovine. Founded immediately following the death of Sergei Diaghilev the Opéra Privé de Paris sought to sustain the creative energy of Russian émigré theater in Western Europe. This production united performers designers and musicians associated with the Russian diaspora transforming Pushkin's fairy-tale opera into a vivid expression of émigré modernism transplanted into the cultural life of Paris. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Quarto format approximately 9.5 × 12.5 inches. Stapled illustrated wraps with full-color chromolithographic cover after Ivan Bilibin. Illustrated with six tipped-in color chromolithographs of costume designs after Bilibin executed from stage maquettes by Alexandre Korovine together with two additional tipped-in scenic plates and a tipped-in color portrait of Madame Maria Kousnezoff-Massenet by Nicolas Kousnezoff. Numerous illustrated period advertisements throughout including several full-page advertisements. CONDITION: One advertisement leaf detached but present. Plates remain vivid and visually strong with only light handling wear to the wraps. Staples sound. A well-preserved and unusually attractive example of interwar Parisian opera ephemera. Première Saison issue. Première Saison programs of the Opéra Privé de Paris survive in comparatively small numbers particularly examples retaining the full suite of tipped-in color plates after Ivan Bilibin. Comparable illustrated programs from this short-lived company appear only intermittently in the market especially in near-complete condition. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - The Opéra Privé de Paris was co-directed by the Russian soprano Maria Kousnezoff-Massenet and functioned as an important cultural bridge for displaced Russian artists after the Revolution. Though short-lived the company preserved important elements of Russian operatic staging and Ballets Russes visual identity during a transitional moment in European theater history. Ivan Bilibin's influence on Russian stage aesthetics remained profound well into the twentieth century and his designs for productions such as 'Tsar Saltan' helped define the visual mythology of Russian folklore on the international stage. This program captures a pivotal moment in the evolution of Russian theatrical modernism after the dissolution of the Ballets Russes. Following Diaghilev's death in 1929 Russian émigré artists in Paris sought new institutional forms through which to continue the aesthetic innovations that had transformed European stage culture during the previous two decades. The production of Rimsky-Korsakov's 'Tsar Saltan' adapted from Pushkin's fairy-tale poem provided an ideal vehicle for this visual and musical continuity. The decorative richness of Ivan Bilibin's folkloric imagery combined with the scenic interpretation of Alexandre Korovine preserves the highly ornamental stage language that became synonymous with Russian theatrical design in the early twentieth century. Beyond its theatrical importance the program also presents a vivid portrait of interwar Parisian cultural life. Its advertisements portraiture typography and chromolithographic inserts collectively illustrate the commercial and artistic environment surrounding Russian émigré performance culture in France between the wars.
