NYCB Vol. 4 No. 22 - Vienna Waltzes

"He loved making thinkings like 'Vienna Waltzes' and 'Union Jack' because there were so many hoards of people. He was always talking about big sets and was fascinated by the size of the tree in 'Nutcracker' and always spoke about having more dancers. In Russia when he was a boy there were hundreds of people in the ballets, and he always wanted that." —Francia Russell in I Remember Balanchine (affiliate link)
