## Resource

George Balanchine’s life cut the twentieth century in two. He was a choreographer who trained in Tsarist St Petersburg and reached the peak of his career in New York during the Cold War. Mr B.: George Balanchine’s Twentieth Century is more than a biography, and more than a book about ballet. It’s about a changing century and a revolutionary approach to art. Magnus talks to Jennifer Homans – ballet critic for The New Yorker – about her brilliant, intense and wonderfully readable book. Edited by Magnus Rena Music, in order of appearance:Igor Stravinsky, Claire Quellet, Sandra Murray: Le Sacre du printemps (The Rite of Spring) (version for Piano 4 hands): V. Rondes printanieres (Spring Rounds)Igor Stravinsky, Ensemble Intercontemporain, Pierre Boulez: Concerto in E-Flat Major “Dumbarton Oaks”: I. Tempo Giusto
