Balanchine

Apollo

Apollo , ballet in Two Scenes. Premiere: June 12, 1928, Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, Théâtre Sarah-Bernhardt, Paris.

Cast

  • Apollo, Serge Lifar
  • Terpsichore, Alice Nikitina (alternating with Alexandra Danilova)
  • Calliope, Lubov Tchernicheva
  • Polyhymnia, Felia Doubrovska
  • two Goddesses;
  • Leto, Mother of Apollo, Sophie Orlova

Scenes

  • SCENE I: THE BIRTH OF APOLLO. SCENE 2: Apollo; PAS D'ACTION (Apollo and Muses): Calliope; Polyhymnia; Terpsichore; Apollo; PAS DE DEUX (Apollo and Terpsichore); CODA; APOTHEOSIS (Apollo and Muses).
    • Note: SCENE I: Leto's labor, and the birth and youth of Apollo; two goddesses present him with a lute and teach him music.
  • SCENE 2: Apollo plays the lute and dances. The three Muses enter; he presents each with an emblem of her art: Calliope, receiving the stylus and tablet, personifies poetry and rhythm; Polyhymnia, finger to lips, represents mime; Terpsichore combines both poetry and gesture in dance and is honored by Apollo. He dances a solo variation and a pas de deux with Terpsichore.
  • APOTHEOSIS: Apollo and the Muses join in a final dance and ascend toward Parnassus.

Stravinsky conceived and composed Apollo Musagetes as a ballet; the music was commissioned for a festival of contemporary music in Washington, D.C., with choreography by Adolph Bolm.

Balanchine's production was his first collaboration with the composer; he later described the choreography as the turning point in his creative life.

Revisions

  • 1928, Ballets Russes: Variation for Alexandra Danilova (alternating as Terpsichore in the original production) differed from Nikitina's.
  • 1978, Second International Dance Festival: SCENE I omitted.
  • 1979, New York City Ballet: For a revival with Mikhail Baryshnikov as Apollo, SCENE I and Apollo's first variation omitted; ending of APOTHEOSIS rechoreographed to conclude with earlier tableau of Muses posing beside Apollo in arabesque, visually suggesting the sun and its rays, instead of ascending Mount Parnassus.
  • 1980, New York City Ballet: Apollo's first variation restored.
