This great selection of classical music is perfect for teaching classical ballet. Most of the this music is found more in the classical music repertoire rather than in ballet scores. It is important to expose dance students to a complete range of music and this CD certainly offers a wide selection. Your student's knowledge will grow by being familiar with all this music as they enjoy dancing to it. Several of the tracks are performed in four hand arrangements on the piano which creates a full and rich sound. In the usual Judy Rice style, all the tracks are very long to accommodate both sides at the barre and several groups in the center. With this CD you can have a fanciful trip filled with dancing to wonderful classical music.
