Beschreibung

("Bakst") in blue fountain pen ink on his 112, Boulevard Malesherbes letterhead, July 5, 1924. Text in French. 7 3/4" x 10"; 1 page (recto only). Very good (minor signs of handling). To Mon cher Ami Beautiful letter from Bakst about the ballet and his favorite ballerina. Bakst writes to a friend that Aubert has changed his mind and is ready to collaborate with them on a new project: the production of a ballet. The great patron of the arts and director Jacques Rouche (1852-1957) will finance the project, and may hire the greatest ballet dancer of the time, the Russian Olga Spessiva. The letter also refers to a certain Boland [?] who would like to produce "La nuit ensorcelee" ( a ballet inspired by "Phedre from 1923) during the winter of 1924 in Chicago, a work created by, among others, Aubert, Bakst and Rouche, and for which Leo Staats claimed his rights as choreographer.
