The Joffrey Ballet's recreation of the 1913 Nijinsky choreography of Stravinsky's Le Sacre du printemps.
If the work continues like this, Igor, the result will be something great. I know what Le Sacre du printemps will be when everything is as we both want it: new, and, for an ordinary viewer, a jolting impression and emotional experience. For some it will open new horizons flooded with different rays of sun. People will see new and different colours and different lines. All different, new and beautiful.
Nijinsky wrote to Stravinsky on January 25, 1913.
