With Pavlova Round The World

Theodore Stier's With Pavlova Round the World is one of the few first-hand accounts of what is was like to work with the great ballerina. Stier began to conduct for Pavlova in 1910 and was her musical director for the next 16 years, during which time, as he proudly relates, he conducted 3,650 of her performances. During this time his relationship with Pavlova gradually changed from employer and employee into a close friendship. The book brings Pavlova alive with Stier's anecdotes and insights into her life and work. Not so much a chronological biography, it is more a series of episodes which illuminate Pavlova as a person as well as a great dancer.
