Vincenzo Celli (4 May 1900 – 28 February 1988) was a noted Italian-American ballet dancer, choreographer, and teacher. Celebrated as a performer and choreographer in Italy, he was renowned in America as a master teacher of the Cecchetti method of ballet training.〔Horst Koegler, "Celli, Vincenzo," in ''The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet'', 2d ed., updated (Oxford University Press, 1987).〕 ==Early life and training== Vincenzo Celli, born as Vincenzo Yacullo in Salerno, Italy, emigrated with his parents to Chicago, Illinois, at an early age. He was first exposed to ballet as a teenager and was awed by the movements of dancer Vaslav Nijinsky, whom he saw perform in 1916 during an American tour of the Ballets Russes, under the direction of Sergei Diaghilev. He was deeply moved by the Russian ballet. "I didn't know what it was," he once said in an interview, "but I knew it was great."〔"Vincenzo Celli, 87, a Dancer, Teacher, and Choreographer," obituary, ''New York Times'' (1 March 1988).〕 At 17, Celli moved to New York City, where he performed as an actor both on and off Broadway with the Washington Square Players. Impressed by his range and ease of movement, choreographer Adolph Bolm approached him to appear in a mime role in his ballet production of ''Le Coq d’Or'' (1918) at the Metropolitan Opera. He then appeared in Bolm's production of ''The Birthday of the Infanta'' (1919) at the Chicago Opera. A few years later, Celli moved back to Italy, where he began formal ballet training with Rafaele Grassi, the teacher of Rosina Galli. He made his Italian debut in a 1922 revival of Manzotti's spectacular ballet ''Excelsior'' at Milan's Teatro dal Verme. The success of his appearance led to a contract with the Teatro alla Scala, where he studied privately under the famed choreographer and dancer Enrico Cecchetti.〔"Vincenzo Celli," in ''Last Glories of the Italian School,'' exhibition catalog, New York Public Library for the Performing Arts. http://web-static.nypl.org/exhibitions/italiandance/web9.html.
