Description
1 videocassette (40 min.) : sd., col. PAL; 1/2 in. (VHS)
Summary
Rehearsal of a solo in the Baroque style, danced by Rudolf Nureyev in the heeled shoes appropriate to the period. Nureyev marks some of the choreography, and repeats sections; at ca. 22 min. into the tape he works with his co-choreographer, Francine Lancelot, director of Ris et Danceries. Nureyev's rehearsal ends at ca. 30 min., and an ensemble in period costume, probably Ris et Danceries, appears on stage, blocking out movements without musical accompaniment.
