We follow the early years of Serge Diaghilev's life from publishing provocative journal 'The World of Art' to producing Musorgsky's opera 'Boris Godunov'. • A lecture by Marina Frolova-Walker FBA, Gresham Professor of Music • 24 September 2019 6PM BST • https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-an... • The great Russian impresario Serge Diaghilev didn’t have the talents to become an artist or the money to become a patron. His gift was to inspire, facilitate and market artistic projects that were highly colourful and distinctive. In this lecture we follow his early years, when he published The World of Art, a provocative Russian journal, exhibited Russian visual art in Paris, and then brought Russian music there, culminating in his production of Musorgsky’s opera Boris Godunov. • #greshamlectures #music #ballet #russia #history #diaghilev #dance #theatre #performance
