The Firebird is a ballet in four acts with music by Igor Stravinski, commissioned in 1910 by the Ballet Russes, under Serge de Diaghilev. It was based on two Russian folktales. In 1945 Sol Hurok staged the ballet in New York and hired Chagall. In 1949, the score was re-arranged, the choreography was done by George Balanchine, and the scenery backdrops and over 80 costumes by Chagall were reused, who found his inspiration in the native and folk art of New Mexico, including kachina dancers. The premier performance of this production was at the City Center, New York, 1949, with Maria Tallchief in the leading role. The costumes were re-created in 1970 by Barbara Karinska with Chagall's approval. (Source: Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) [website]; http://www.lacma.org )
