According to Arlene Croce, Eliot Feld's company revived this in 1969, supervised by Richad Thomas and Barbara Fallis.

The orchestration was the one by Konstantinov explicitly repudiated by Fokine. Those things are in the books, but the spirit of the piece, the continuity and flavor of the choreography aren't in any book I know of, and what Feld's dancers did looked wonderful to me.

John Sowinski was Harlequin.

With all these revivals and "revivals," it's surprising that so little visual material is available. On YouTube there's montage of still photos of Nijinsky in the title role, with Schumann's music in the background.

Yes,

I know it has been done by ballet companies, and maybe even University Dance Departments, so it is frustrating that I can't lay my hands on a visual recording!

When I went to YouTube all I found was the still shot of Nijinsky and the Schumann music...no dance. I will try again...but if anyone secures a dvd please let me know and I will do the same!!

Hello to All,

Does anyone know where I might find a dvd or other recording of the Schumann/Fokine work, "Carnaval"?

It doesn't matter when or what company has done it. I am just interested in seeing the work performed!

Thank you all in advance!
