“Sounds of
Classics" (formerly the album "Solo", released
in 2002) is the first recording by Steven
Mitchell that was not directed by a dance teacher.
Steven’s perfect sense of timing and rhythm have
helped him create a compact disc which is suited to
any ballet class. The thirty different tracks
contain less familiar music from ballets like
Coppelia, Le Corsaire and Fille ma Gradee. Also
included are melodies by Handel, Donizetti, Delibes
and several less known composers creating a unique
mixture of songs. This is the perfect CD to use when
you need a break from the usual music for ballet
class. The tracks are not repeated and most
selections at the barre contain eight additional
counts at the end of the exercise for bending
forward and back. This is very similar to the David
Howard style of ballet class. Steven credits Anna
Marie Holmes for bring him volumes of music from
Russia which were used for some of the more
unfamiliar melodies on this 61 minute compact disc.
The music from Steven Mitchell's "Sounds of Classics" is used on David Howard's DVD, "Turns, Leaps & Bounds" BR57D |
