THE MAGIC OF BALLET

The Magic of Ballet 

through the great projects of the classical repertoire

THE MAGIC OF BALLET: The history of classical ballet is revived through a monumental work!

 With great joy and pride Fourfouri Publications offer the Greek readership a broad panorama of the history of classical ballet, through the plot and stories of fourteen of the most prominent works (Giselle, Swan Lake, The Nutcracker, The Firebird, etc.), as well as in from the exciting lives of the most legendary dancers (Margot Fontaine, Alicia Alonso, Rudolf Nureyev etc.)

What is the nutcracker and what does it have to do with the mouse king? How come there is a cake named after the famous ballerina Pavlova? Who was the "Tsar's Ballerina"?

THE MAGIC OF BALLET

From the first steps of the Romantic Ballet and sylphs in white tulle skirts to Baryshnikov's pioneering and daring performances, stories of fairies, creatures of the imagination, myths and legends, pirates, fatal love stories and desperate lovers fill the world's great theaters : the Paris Opera, the Bolshoi in Moscow and the Scala in Milan.

A monumental and immortal work, just like classical ballet itself with its mark remaining indelible in world culture.
