The Choreography of Antony Tudor

This work presents an analytical overview of the ballets created for the stage by Antony Tudor and in-depth critical analysis of four key works: Jardin aux Lilas (1936), Dark Elegies (1937), Pillar of Fire (1942), and The Leaves are Fading (1975). The central focus throughout is the investigation of Tudors choreographic style, with reference especially to his exceptional musicality and his keen sense of psychological subtlety.
