什麼是尼金斯基

Nijinsky, Vaslav(Fomich)

俄國芭蕾舞舞蹈家。早期跟隨爲着名舞蹈家並擁有公司的父母學習後，他和妹妹尼金斯卡前往聖彼得堡受進一步地訓練，並在1907年進入馬林斯基劇院。以其突出的跳躍和無比的優雅，很快便受到歡迎，在《吉賽兒》、《天鵝湖》和《睡美人》中擔任主角，並常與帕芙洛娃、卡爾薩溫娜同臺演出。1909年加入新成立的俄羅斯芭蕾舞團，在福金的芭蕾舞劇（包括《狂歡節》、《仙女們》、《玫瑰仙子》、《彼得魯什卡》和《達芙尼斯和克勞伊》）中扮演許多角色。1912～1913年他自己編撰了《牧神的午後》、《遊戲》和《春之祭》，三部作品都引發醜聞。1913年的婚姻使他被導師佳吉列夫從團裏開除。尼金斯基之後仍持續演出，但鮮少獲得成功。1919年因心理疾病日益加重而退出舞臺，之後一直到去世前，大多都居住於瑞士、法國和英國的療養機構中。尼金斯基在舞蹈史上傳奇性的聲譽一直無人能及。

1889～1950年

Nijinsky, Vaslav(Fomich)

Russian ballet dancer. After early lessons from his parents, famous dancers with their own company, he and his sister, Bronislava Nijinska, trained further in St. Petersburg, and he joined the Mariinsky Theater company in 1907. With his spectacular leaps and unrivaled grace, he was an immediate success, dancing leading roles in Giselle, Swan Lake, and Sleeping Beauty, often with Anna Pavlova and Tamara Karsavina. In 1909 he joined the new Ballets Russes and created many roles in Michel Fokine's ballets, including Carnaval, Les sylphides, Le spectre de la rose, Petrushka, and Daphnis and Chloe. In 1912-13 he choreographed The Afternoon of a Faun, Jeux, and The Rite of Spring, all of which caused scandals. His marriage in 1913 led to his dismissal from the company by his mentor Sergey Diaghilev. He continued to perform but to less success. His intensifying mental illness led to his retirement in 1919, and he lived mostly in mental institutions in Switzerland, France, and England until his death. His legendary reputation is unequaled in the history of dance.
