Signed by author Ellen Pall directly on the title page; In Corpse de Ballet, Pall tells the story of the ballet company that she and her husband, the composer John Adams, founded in the early 1980s. With its innovative repertoire and daring choreography, the company quickly became a force to be reckoned with on the New York ballet scene. But as the company grew, so did the tensions between the husband and wife, as well as between John Adams and the dancers he had brought into the company. As the company's success began to wane, the dancers began to leave, one by one, until only Pall and John Adams were left. In the end, the company's financial problems forced them to dissolve the company, and Pall and Adams divorced. Corpse de Ballet is a lyrical and powerful chronicle of the creative process, the power of collaboration, and the cost of success.; 8vo; Signed by Author. Artikel-Nr. 17669
