The beautiful and exotic Bugaku (1963) is seen here in a 1978 colour telecast starring Patricia McBride and Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux. Apollo (1928) was a milestone in the early part of Balanchine’s career. Jacques d’Amboise dances the title role in a 1960 performance of the complete ballet (with Diana Adams as Terpsichore, as well as in excerpts of the work as presented in a 1963 colour telecast from the Bell Telephone Hour series.
