Summary
Two kinescopes, each ca. 4 min. long, of a program featuring Rudolf Nureyev in two solo dances. Although this program is announced as Nureyev's "solo American television debut," he had previously appeared twice on the Bell Telephone Hour in 1962. The second kinescope contains the same material, followed by the beginning (ca. 30 sec.) of the next number, a tribute to the music of Naples.
