Firebird ballet

In Stravinsky's ballet The Firebird is half-woman, half-bird.
In folklore The Firebird, a "heat bird", is large with majestic plumage that glows brightly emitting red, orange, and yellow light. Like a bonfire. A flame. The feathers keep glowing even if removed and can light a large room. The mystery of the feather has illuminated the hearts of men for many years.
