Ballet dancer Milko Šparemblek dies

Zagreb, 25 February - Milko Šparemblek, a ballet choreographer of world renown, has died aged 96. He received Slovenia's top lifetime achievement award for artists, the Prešeren Prize, in 2020. His original stylistic expression was said to be so singular that it could not be defined by any dance-theoretical or dance-historical label.
