Abstract

This article aims at providing a broad appraisal of the figure of José Soler Casabón through one of his main compositions, L'homme sans yeux, sans nez at sans oreilles (Ho.S.Y.N.O.), a ballet based on the poem Le musicien de Saint Merry written by Guillaume Apollinaire with sets by Pablo Picasso. Parade by Erik Satie and Ho.S.Y.N.O. by Soler Casabón, are two ballets created in 1917. The difference between the two works lies in the fate suffered by each as a result of the outbreak of the First World War, which prevented one of them from being performed. Soler Casabón spent the rest of his life trying to have the work see the light of day, but without any success. Keywords: Guillaume Apollinaire, ballet, José Soler Casabón, Paris, Érik Satie, Parade.
