Rudolf Noureev - Génie et sensualité

Description

Alberto Testa paints a very accurate portrait of Rudolf Nureyev by highlighting the contrasts that marked the existence of the most famous dancer of the twentieth century. Reading the pages of this book reveals his need to be the best but at the same time his thirst for freedom; the rigorous professional discipline to which he submitted himself and which was in total contradiction with his private life made of excesses and transgressions. This volume not only presents the story of Nureyev's life, but it accompanies it with direct testimonies from critics and dance enthusiasts who, at the time, were closely following the dancer's career.
