From adagio to voyage, over 800 steps, movements, poses, and concepts are fully defined. A pronunciation guide and cross-references to alternate names for similar steps and positions also included.
Briefly traces the history of ballet, describes the steps and movements, and explains the difficulties and problems dancers encounter, the exercise and training they need, and the procedures involved in preparing for and performing in a stage production.
Wherever ballet is taught in the world, and in whatever language, it retains one common denominator: the technical terms used are in French. This dictionary aims to prevent confusion by explaining the precise meanings of over 560 of the French technical terms used in classical ballet.
Offers thirty-three weeks of lesson plans of classic French poses and sequences in the order in which a ballet teacher or master would present them.
Presents definitions of common ballet terms, providing phonetic pronunciation of foreign words, brief biographies of several dancers, and over 100 drawings that show how to execute movements.
Provides photographs of members of the American Ballet Theatre demonstrating positions and includes discussion and photographs of classwork, rehearsal, choreography, and major ballets.
In Pardon My French-It's the Language of Ballet, dance student Lilly Nilly's self-appointed mission is to figure out what the heck ballet-and coincidentally life-are all about and share this insight with other kids.
