Russian dancer and choreographer. Graduated from the choreography department of the Imperial Theatre School in St. Petersburg in 1852, he was attached to the Mariinsky Theatre, where he became first dancer under Petipa in 1869 and ballet master in 1885, and went on to present his own independent works. He was also blessed with musical talent and gifts, and music was always a source of inspiration for his dance. He choreographed over a dozen pieces, including the dance of the Snow Fairy at the end of the first act of The Nutcracker (1892), a famous scene full of the poetic charm of nature floating in the girl's fantasy.

イワノーフ【Lev Ivanovich Ivanov】

1834‐1901
ロシアの舞踊家，振付師。1852年ペテルブルグの帝室劇場学校舞踊科を卒業，マリインスキー劇場付となり，69年ペチパのもとで第1舞踊手，85年次席バレエマスターとなり，独立の作品を発表するにいたった。また音楽の天分と才能に恵まれ，彼にとって音楽はつねに舞踊の形象の源泉であった。振付した作品は十数編あるが《くるみ割り人形》(1892)第1幕の終りの雪の精の踊りは，少女の幻想に浮かぶ自然の詩趣あふれる名場面である。
