Sergei Diaghilev

The enduring influence of the Minoan civilization on fashion, food, music and art is the subject of a high-level event at the Museum of London on Tuesday, November 5, which has been dedicated to Sophia Kokosalaki, the 47-year-old fashion designer of Cretan heritage who died earlier this month.

"From Russia With Love" is a Greek National Opera tribute to Igor Stravinsky, which sees three acclaimed choreographers presenting their own takes on three pieces he composed for impresario Sergei Diaghilev, creator of the Ballets Russes in Paris.
