The ballet At Uranienborg - Tycho Brah's Dream (1924), is an hour-long sequence of dances illuminating a daft semi-allegorical plot set in the observatory of the great Danish astronomer. Despite many felicities, I found its chocolate-box charm quickly dissipated, and warmed more to the Straussian prelude, The Royal Guest (1919) and the gentle Romance (1903).'
