In a sense, the book is a Chronicle of the part played by composers in the development of the art of ballet. For this reason, we have returned, wherever possible, to the composer's original conception and have attempted to establish what were his intentions with regard to the relationship between his music and the action of the ballet. In this respect, the function of the book is primarily documentary. But at the same time, it is designed to answer two practical needs. In the first place, it should provide guidance for those who listen to ballet music on gramophone records, in the concert Hall, and on the radio. The selection of music examples has been made entirely with this end in view. We have confined the music examples to those themes or motifs which helped to sustain the musical and dramatic unity of the score. The second , and more traditional, aims of our book is to assist the ballet-goer in following the action and the symbolism, if any, of a ballet.
