Jeux, Poème dansé

More about the book

The one-act ballet features a score by Debussy, first performed by the Ballets Russes in 1913, alongside scenic designs by Léon Bakst and choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky. While its premiere was overshadowed by Stravinsky's "Le sacre du printemps," Debussy's music has endured as a celebrated concert piece. The reproduced score, originally published in Paris, is part of a series that supports IMSLP, an online archive dedicated to free music scores and recordings.
