“Ballet Class Music for the Young
Dancer” is the first album by Soren Bebe with
music composed and arranged especially for
children’s ballet classes (age 4-10 years). For
this album, Soren has created some extremely
easy-to-follow arrangements of his wonderful
original compositions. Gone are the jazzy
improvisational moments. This music contains
simple uncomplicated rhythms with clear melodies
that are easy to hear. There is not much
syncopation in this music, and you can tell that
Soren is concentrated on keeping this music
available to the younger dancer. Some of the
tracks at the Barre are repeated with shorter
versions so you can choose the length of
exercise you want. The center includes music for
skips, polka, and mazurka to name a few with
lots of very uplifting melodies perfect for
getting the kids in the spirit of dancing. This
album consists of 33 different original
compositions and comes in a beautiful digifile
case with track list including song meters,
counts and song lengths printed on the back.
