Interview | 1976
In this 1976 interview with Michael Parkinson, Nureyev reminisces about how he used to stare at maps in geography class, imagining himself traveling to all the foreign places where he wanted to dance. The discussion also includes the origins of Nureyev’s love of the music from hearing Tchaikovsky played over the radio at state funerals, and a conversation regarding the continued KGB surveillance of himself and his family.
