Sergei Diaghilev (1872–1929) was a groundbreaking Russian impresario whose vision reshaped modern ballet. As the founder of Mir Iskusstva (World of Art) and the driving force behind Ballets Russes, he bridged music, dance, and visual art to create revolutionary performances that influenced generations of artists and choreographers. Though not a performer or musician himself, his collaborative approach forged a new era in the performing arts.
