August Bournonville 1805-1879 ©
There have been periods when the legacy of Bournonville has been felt to be not only a challenge but also a burden. Famous, for example, is the dramatist Kjeld Abell’s remark that “Danish ballet is spelled and read Bournonville”, and after World War II there have been moments when both dancers and audiences have sighed.
Nevertheless, in 2005 we are able to celebrate August Bournonville’s bicentenary with a festival showing everything that has rurvived of the master’s works to this day; and that Bournonville is not in any narrow sense isolated in a separate dance world is shown not least by the book publications, CD and DVD releases, exhibitions etc., that are a result of the bicentenary celebrations.
Bournonville may belong to the world of the dance but he is equally a part of the whole Danish Golden Age culture.
On seeing Bournonville on stage Hans Christian Andersen exclaimed “Your dancing speaks!” And he is still speaking!
