Ivanov joined the Imperial Ballet in St. Petersburg after graduating (1852) from its school. He staged nearly 20 new or revived works for the Imperial Ballet but received little recognition during his lifetime because the name of Petipa was always placed first on the program. Ivanov is often considered a forerunner of Michel Fokine in utilizing the corps de ballet to develop the plot or theme of a ballet. In addition to The Nutcracker (1892), Ivanov choreographed portions of Swan Lake (1895) and Act II of Cinderella (1893). With Petipa he revived the 18th-century La Fille mal gardée (1882), and with the well-known ballet teacher Enrico Cecchetti re-choreographed Coppélia, creating the version upon which most 20th-century productions of this ballet are based) <https://www.britannica.com/biography/Lev-Ivanovich-Ivanov> |
