Pasajes popularesThe outcome is a terrific noise which reaches its climax and ends in the sorrowful and querulous collapse of the poor puppet. Página 48 What is important for the lucid ordering of the work — for its crystallization — is that all the Dionysian elements which set the imagination of the artist in motion and make the life-sap rise must be properly subjugated before they intoxicate us, and must finally be made to submit to the law: Apollo demands it. Página 108 I saw in imagination a solemn pagan rite: sage elders, seated in a circle, watched a young girl dance herself to death. They were sacrificing her to propitiate the god of spring. Página 47 This proposal suited me admirably, for, as I was more or less free just then, it enabled me to carry out an idea, which had long tempted me : To compose a ballet founded on moments or episodes in Greek mythology, plastically interpreted by dancing of the so-called classical school.

I am thus brought face to face with the eternal conflict in art between the Apollonian and the Dionysian principles. The latter assumes ecstasy to be the final goal — that is to say, the losing of oneself — whereas art demands above all the full consciousness of the artist.

Neoclassical Stravinsky openly proclaimed his "profound admiration for classical ballet, which in its very essence, by the beauty of its ordonnance and the aristocratic austerity of its forms, so closely corresponds with my conception of art."134 Inspired in part by his work on Sleeping Beauty, Stravinsky wrote his own "Petersburg...
