High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ludwig Minkus a.k.a. Leon Fyodorovich Minkus (1826–1917) was an Austrian composer of ballet music, a violin virtuoso and teacher. Minkus is most noted for the music he composed while serving as Ballet Composer of the St. Petersburg Imperial Theatres in Russia, where he wrote for the original works and revivals of the renowned Ballet Masters Arthur Saint-Leon and Marius Petipa. Among the composer's most celebrated compositions for these Ballet Masters were La Source (1866; composed jointly with Leo Delibes), Don Quixote (1869); and La Bayadere (1877). During his career Minkus wrote a substantial amount of supplemental material for insertion into already existing ballets. Among these pieces, Minkus is most noted for the Grand Pas classique, Pas de trois and Mazurka des enfants written for Marius Petipa's 1881 revival of the ballet Paquita.
