Lynette H Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 There's a new biography out for Constant Lambert, reviewed here in the Guardian "Ninette de Valois described him long afterwards as the English Diaghilev, and indeed when the Russian died in 1929, some already saw his replacement in Lambert at 24. After a stint as rehearsal pianist for Marie Rambert, he moved on to become one of the founding triumvirate of the Sadler's Wells Ballet with De Valois and Frederick Ashton." http://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/jul/04/constant-lambert-beyond-rio-grande-review-stephen-lloyd Also in the Spectator http://www.spectator.co.uk/books/books-feature/9210601/constant-lambert-by-stephen-lloyd-review/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
