Book Description
This is an account of the rise and growth of the School of American Ballet. The idea was born in London in 1933 when Lincoln Kirstein, then a brilliant and idealistic young Harvard graduate, invited an equally brilliant and young Russian choreographer, George Balanchine, to direct a ballet company in the U.S. Balanchine's reply, "Yes, but first a school," planted the seed that bloomed into one of the most celebrated institutions of its kind. The school has fashioned not only the great dancers of the New York City Ballet but the best teachers, choreographers, directors and performers in ballet companies and studios all over the United States. Dunning vividly describes the extraordinary ambience, the professional vigor and the outstanding influence of this unique institution through its first 50 years. ISBN 0-670-80407-X : $20.00.

Book Description
In 1933 choreographer George Balanchine and impresario Lincoln Kirstein embarked on an elusive quest to found a ballet company and school in the United States. Though their efforts would eventually result in the creation of the New York City Ballet and the School of American Ballet, the first decade of their collaborative efforts was anything but assured. Tracing the tangled histories of two of the most important figures in twentieth-century dance, Balanchine and Kirstein's American Enterprise offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal period in cultural history. Deeply researched using sources only made available in recent years, the book challenges the mythologies surrounding the early years of the Balanchine-Kirstein enterprise. It also reveals the full extent of Kirstein's essential role and offers reconstructive analysis of lost works, as well as new and surprising details regarding some of Balanchine's most iconic ballets, including Serenade, Apollo, and Concerto Barocco. This history involved artists including Richard Rodgers, Martha Graham, George Gershwin, Katherine Dunham, Vera Zorina, and Igor Stravinsky, as well as dozens of lesser known players whose contributions have yet to be fully acknowledged. Capturing the full sweep of Balanchine and Kirstein's collaborative work across multiple genres and institutions, this book reveals their partnership in all of its exciting and ungainly complexity, showing how the 1930s Balanchine was not the artist that he would eventually become, and how the same was true of the institutions that he and Kirstein jointly created.
