## HEADING: DANCING ## LEFT COLUMN 324. THE MAGIC OF DANCE: (1982) Dame Margot Fonteyn, considered by many the "prima ballerina assoluta," has per- formed with some of the greatest dancers in the world, including Nureyev and Baryshni- kov. Last week, she made her debut as host of The Magic of Dance. "The inspiration for dance moves around in continuous ebb and flow," says hostess Mar- got Fonteyn, who follows a choreographic line that begins with French ballet masters in Russia in the 19th century and ends with an American artist, George Balanchine, who is steeped in the Russian tradition. Along the way, Fonteyn considers such in- fluential choreographers as Charles Didelot (1767-1836), a French innovator who literally brought the St. Petersburg Ballet to new heights by attaching wires to his soaring dancers; Marius Petipa (1819-1910), the Frenchman whose works remain a staple of Soviet ballet; and Michel Fokine (1880-1942), who—under the aegis of impresario Serge Diaghilev—brought the ballets of Russia to the world. Fonteyn also traces the career of the legendary Anna Pavlova (1881-1931) and shows rare clips of the ballerina filmed at the One legendary ballerina (Margot Fonteyn) holding the slipper of another (Pavlova) urging of Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pick- ford. Also included: Mikhail Baryshnikov in Fokine's "Petrouchka," Yoko Morishita and Tetsutaro Shimizu in Petipa's "Don Quixote," and Vyryan Lorraine and Desmond Kelly in Balanchine's "Apollo."
