DIAGHHEFf S BALLET
OPENS ITS SEASON
AT METROPOLITAN
Famous Corps of Russian
Dancers Seen in a Notablo
Program of Classic and
Modern Ballet
COMBINATION OF 3 ARTS
After ntl tho glowing things that havo
been said, nnd after nil tho silly things
thnt have been dono In connection with
Korge do DlnghllefTs Ballet Russe, tho
first performances by this wonderful
group of dancers nt tho Metropolitan last
night tended to havo something of the
atmosphere of nntl-cllmax. The nature
of the ballets and their personnel, the
details of costuming and scenery, tho
muslo and tho choreography, wero till
set out with much circumstance in tho
Evn.vi.vo Lbdoek of last Saturday, nnd
two of the ballets danced last night were
reviewed from Now York performances
moro than a month ngo. The higher con
cors of nrt have sat In tho police courts
of other cities nnd found this strango
Importation offenslvo or Inoffensive, nc
coidlng to the dictates of their Infallible
Judgment. The dilettante has waved his
tin nds and the stolid innn of affairs has
been captivated. Tho Russian ballot has
been called n now philosophy of life,
which It probably Is not, nnd an outrago
to public decency, which It certainly is
not And now for the week beforo tho
return to Now York It Is ours.
Yet It Is In tho nature of this singu
larly energetic nnd magnetic blending
of three nrta that It retains n freshness
ond nn appeal In spite of tho ravage-) of
tlmo Last night tho representations
ranged from the gnomes nnd genii of a
fairy story through the fantastic per
sonages of a commedla doll' nrto to tho
sensuous nnd bloody characters of a
trngedy of love, nnd nt each moment
there was the Impress of a clear and mov
ing reality. It was, to bo sure, not tho
reality of every day; that Is what saves
tho ballet from discussions nnd prob
lems. It wns the more significant reality
of an artistic Illusion.
Of tho three sets two were by Leon
Bakst nnd ono by Oolovlne. and of thoso
uy uonsr, tno seconu, ror "Cnrnavnl," wns
undistinguished und 111 lighted. For
"L" Olscau do Feu" (The Flrehlid). Golo
vlno designed a set as whimsical, ns
variegated and fantastic as the music of
Igor Strawlnsky for tho same ballet. Grin
ning faces In tho gates nnd In tho windy
clouds, nrabesnues towering Into tho skies,
carmine turrets, which flashed Into scar
let, ns tho light of nn unearthly day
sprang upon them, nnd out of such details
n scene which grew with the progress of
tho fairy drama from tho exotic to tho
.sinister and then Into Joyous and exultant
actuality these wero tho achievements of
Golovlne. For tho "Scheherazade" thero
was tho now decoration of Bakst, no
longer In tho soft yellows nnd contrasting
blues. Instead tho harem was In green,
dark and with brownish splotches, nnd
four scarlet pillars burned nt ono sldo.
For this the costumes were transposed to
nnother key, yet with tho snme har
monies and the same dissonances. They
woro pink and greon nnd bluo, nnd tho
Indescribablo Investiture of tho faithless
queen .nil beautiful to the eye, nnd, In tho
weaving of the dances, dazzling.
With the eye tind tho ear so disposed
of, thero should have been another fac
ulty which could attend to tho dancing
nnd tho drama of tho ballots. Actually
tho nppcal came through tho vision and
was blended, as said beforo, with the
glorious settings devised. Thero was much
In this modern dancing which stemmed
from tho older, tho now unfairly despised
llvo positions ballet. Indeed, tho "Carna-1
val" was n bit of this exqulslto ancient
danco remade with a now passion, yet
restrained and delicate as It must bo. In
tho other two It would bo moro Just to
speak of mimicry, ot pantomime first nnd
dancing afterward. For essentially tho
"Scheherazade" and "L'Olseau de Feu"
are dramas enacted In posturo nnd lino
and movement and gesture and expres
sion. Whenever theso elements fit Into
tho scheme of choreography thoy aro so
utilized, but they havo their place apart,
It was Impossible ns one sat beforo the
ballets to separate them Into their com
ponents. It Is equally Impossible, when
ono Is nway from them, to give any sense
of their unity. Even to catalogue the
emotions portrayed wore not easy, for
they ranged from tho chlldllko simplicity
of faith In tho first piece to the mrtd riot
of lust and death In tho Inst. In each,
the suggestion of love or death was mnde
through beauty of line, of color, of light,
of movoment. To bo touched by tho elo
quence of It'all was Inevitable, but it was
nn eloquenco beyond translation. Tho
passion for beauty, the forvor of energy,
nre a little lll-at-easo In our lives and
tho overwhelming of tho senses which
they bring wo nre Inclined to fnncy un
natural, or. If we bo humorists. Immoral.
But we recognize the higher power, and
even our protests nre homage to It.

WASHINGTON, JIarch 28. In splto of
tho fact that tho JlexIcAn "situation" han
hit society rather hard at tho nattonat
capital, Washington has had a partlc
lllarly giddy week, with a rnasquerado
dinner-dance, a skating nnd dancing car

of official dinners, nnd, of course, tho
usual weekly at least, Lenten weekly

Tho Whlto Houso muslcalo Tuesday
night was made the occasion of presenting
Leopold Stokowskl, conductor of th
Philadelphia Orchestra, and JIme. Sto

The orchestra had given a wonderful con
certthe last of Its season during tho
afternoon, nt whloh tho Chief Executive
hnd cntortnlned a box party, nnd tho
counselor of tho State Department nnd
Jtrs. Polk hnd entertained nt dinner for
mo cuoKowsKis, who wero their guests
for tho night, nnd brought their party to
tho Whlto House that evening, merely as
guests, of courso. Tho program was fur
nished by Josser lights In tho musical
firmament But nftcr it wns over the Sto
kowskls beenmo decidedly tho lions of tho
evening.
Tho concert of tho nfternoon had
brought out ono of the most distinguished
audiences of the winter, nnd ono that
packed tho theatre to tho doors. Tho
Proslrtent and Jtrs. Wilson wero there,
with Jtlss Wilson, Jtlss Bonos and, as
usual, some ot tho Boilings In their box.
Tho German Ambnssador had a box full..
General nnd Jtrs. Crozlcr hnd a dis

tho winter at which thoy woro pretty sure
to hear German music, but JIme. Batch
mcten Is quoted ns rejoicing In the op
portunity offered by a JtcCormlck, recital
of hearing good music without running tho
fatal chance of having to patronlzo Teu
tonic nrt.
Tho fact thnt tho much-discussed St
Cyrs had taken tho Luttroll houso had
almost been forgotten, so quiet had they
kept themselves slhco their arrival, whon
It was unnounced a few days ago that
Jtr. Rhlnelandcr Stewart, Jlrs. St Cyr'
son. would stop on his way up from Aiken
nnd make them a visit
Tho Mitchell Harrisons, of Philadelphia
