Gresham College lecture series on the Ballets Russes


Recommended Posts

Gesham College has announced its new lecture series for the coming year and one of its strands in ballet, more particularly the Ballet Russes. Presenter is Martina Frolova-Walker. There are six in the series. All are ticketed (but free). 

 

The college has been providing free lectures for the last 400 years. Usually they are recorded and accessible online later.

I check out the Gresham College YouTube channel from time to time, because it's got a bunch of lectures on different topics, some of which I find really interesting. It looks as though they've recently started a lecture series on Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes; there are two lectures available at the moment, but it looks as though there are going to be more.

 

Here's a link to the first lecture.
