Use dmy dates date October 2011 On the Dnieper , Op. 51, lang ru link no , also known by its French language title Sur le Borysth ne , is Sergei Prokofiev s fourth ballet, written in 1930. Background Sergei Diaghilev , the impresario who had led Ballets Russes to distinguished success, died suddenly in 1929, hence ending Prokofiev s collaboration with the troupe. The Prodigal Son Prokofiev The Prodigal Son was the last such collaboration . Seeing the success of the work, the Ballet de l Op ra National de Paris Paris Op ra commissioned Prokofiev to write another ballet. Serge Lifar , formerly a close associate with Diaghilev, was responsible for creating the setting and choreography. However, he did not place any significance to the scenario. Rather, the ballet was created as a sequence of dances. On the Dnieper was the result of this collaboration. Lifar, in his 1965 book La danse , said that he was disappointed with Prokofiev s score. Lifar claimed to have been inspired by Russian folkdance but acknowledges that critics found his own choreography insufficiently Russian. Preparations for the ballet were marked the sudden withdrawal of Olga Spessivtseva who was to have had the leading female role. Spessivsteva had had a series of successes with Lifar at the Ballet de l Op ra National de Paris Paris Opera Ballet Promethee , Giselle and had unrequited feelings for him. In his book The Three Graces Anna Pavlova, Tamara Karsavina, Olga Spessivtseva 1959 Lifar describes how their personal situation came to a head during rehearsals. The two heroines of this ballet were named Natasha and Olga.
