CriticalDance Forum

I am studying Pulchinella for 'A' level Dance and have searched everywhere including the Internet for any background material, reviews etc on this work, but with almost no success. Can anyone help with any interesting or useful information please?

Hello, jh, and welcome. Hmm. The only versions of Pulcinella I know of are one that Michael Smuin did for ABT in the late 60's, and one that Heinz Spoerli did more recently for Zurich Ballet. I am sure there are other versions. Is Richard Alston the choreographer of the version you are researching?<P>One suggestion may be to do another search omitting the "h" in Pulcinella. I know, if you are talking about the Stravinsky score, that it is often spelled that way. It might make a difference.

Hi jh! I think that you have a better chance with your query in our 'UK news and Views' forum. So I will move your post there and close the thread here in 'Students' questions'.

perhaps this will be helpful:<BR> <A HREF="http://jeromerobbins.org/ballets/pulcinella.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://jeromerobbins.org/ballets/pulcinella.htm</A>
