Andre Eglevsky, Maria Tallchief - PDD to the Adagio from Mendelssohn’s ’Scotch Symphony’
This is footage of Ballets Russes Andre Eglevsky (1917-1977) and Maria Tallchief (1925-2013) performing a pas de deux to the Adagio from Mendelssohn’s ’Scotch Symphony’.
The performance was broadcast on the Bell Telephone Hour on the 9th April 1959.

I’ve also always been fascinated by
