Danish dancer and choreographer. Born in Copenhagen to a French dancer father and a Swedish mother. After studying at the Royal Danish Ballet School, he studied under Parisian dancer Auguste Vestris (1760-1842). After a successful career at the Paris Opera, he returned to Denmark and became the principal dancer and director of the Royal Danish Ballet in 1830, a position he held until 1877. Based on the refined French style of ballet, he perfected a unique style that emphasized theatricality, ushering in the golden age of Danish ballet. His techniques also influenced Russian ballet through his students. His works are also valuable as they convey the techniques of the Romantic ballet era that had been lost in other countries. His representative works include La Sylphide (1836), Naples (1842), and A Fairy Tale (1854). Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
デンマークの舞踊家,振付家。フランス人の舞踊家を父に,スウェーデン人を母にコペンハーゲンに生まれる。デンマーク王立バレエ学校に学んだのち,パリの舞踊家オーギュスト・ベストリス〔1760-1842〕に師事。パリのオペラ座で活躍後帰国し,1830年デンマーク王立バレエ団の首席舞踊手兼監督に就任,1877年まで監督を務める。フランス流の洗練されたバレエ様式をもとに,演劇性を重視した独特のスタイルを完成させ,デンマーク・バレエの黄金時代を築いた。その技法は弟子を通じてロシア・バレエにも影響を与えている。他国では失われてしまったロマンティック・バレエ時代の技法を伝えるものとしても,その作品は貴重。代表作に《ラ・シルフィード》(1836年),《ナポリ》(1842年),《おとぎ話》(1854年)がある。
