Professor Stephanie Jordan and Dr Larraine Nicholas have been trying to track down all the choreographic treatments of Stravinsky's music for the online database Stravinsky the Global Dancer, and have traced over 1,000 so far. Christopher Cook puts the database through its paces and learns the answers to such questions as, how many versions of the Circus Polka are there? And was the first version really made for elephants?
