SPEAKING OF DIAGHILEV. By John Drummond. Faber and Faber; 404 pages; K20

FOR 20 years after it began in 1909, Diaghilev's Ballets Russes was a fountainhead that nourished modernism in all the arts. The company evaporated with the death of its creator in 1929 but the effects of its extraordinary presence can still be discerned even at the end of the century. The source of this phenomenon, Sergei Pavlovitch Diaghilev, was neither dancer, musician, actor nor painter, but it was through his tutelage that some of the century's giants in each of those fields took their first steps.
