 Igor Moiseyev (1906-2007)
 is the master choreographer
 who created a new form of theatrical folk dance in Russia
 and whose troupe was one of the most popular dance companies
 of the 20th century.
 
 The Moiseyev Dance Company’s energy, virtuosity, precision
 and ingenious distillation of folk styles from many lands
 set audiences cheering worldwide.
 When the troupe made its New York debut in 1958,
 presented by the impresario Sol Hurok
 at the Metropolitan Opera House,
 it became the first major Soviet dance group
 to perform in the United States.
 
 A creatively passionate man, Mr. Moiseyev
 said in a 1965 interview:
 “Everything I’ve done, I love.
 If you’re not in love, you can’t create.
 And if you’re calm when you’ve created something,
 you can rest assured that you’ve created nothing.”
