Did Balanchine choreograph hte hippo ballet for Fantasia?


Recommended Posts

According to "Choreography by George Balanchine: A Catalogue of Works," it was based on Vera Zorina in The Goldwyn Follies: "In the Water Nymph Ballet, Zorina rises out of a pool; this dance was later the model for the dance of the hippos and ostriches (to the Dance of the Hours from La Gioconda)in Walt Disney's film Fantasia."
