Item #2

  • Tajuk:Grands Pas Charactere
  • Sinopsis Item / Nota Program:

    The great classic ballets always include character dances by way of a travelogue for 18th and 19th century audiences in the absence on television or media! This is why our students still study these dances for their ballet exams. In such rare countries as Spain these dances have reached their highest point of development. “Grands Pas Charactere” is dances to the music of “Swan Lake” all of which the Russian composer Tchaikovsky composed within the rhythms of his native folk dances, and will show the styles of “Polonaise”, “Czardas”, “Mazurka”, and how the simple rhythms of children studies relate to a grand performance. In Spain folk dance has reached it’s most sophisticated form and “Swan Lake” includes a very stylish example.

Item #3

  • Tajuk:Pas De Quatre
  • Sinopsis Item / Nota Program:

    Classical ballet derives from the Court Dances of  18th century France and was refined in Italy. In 1845, four of the greatest ballerinas in the history of theatrical dance were invited to perform together and “Pas de Quatre” was created. It is performed in the spirit of gentle rivalry as each ballerina demonstrates her particular ability whether it be a light jumping style, or multiple turns, or a delicate balance on her pointes, and each solo reflects her specialty.

    Our “Pas de Quatre” follows closely the original choreography. It is known as the “Romantic Style” and is taught in our syllabus as the elegant use of arms and head combined with the steps each of these ballerina’s perfected.

Item #5

  • Tajuk:Dances from Napoli
  • Sinopsis Item / Nota Program:

    A pure classical ballet in the style of “Swan Lake” and “Giselle”, this ballet was first performed over a hundred years ago in Denmark by the Royal Danish Ballet and is still danced by this Company today and by many ballet companies worldwide.

    “Napoli” is ballet in an Italian style with Italian folk dance and the music of tambourines blended with ballet steps.

    Our dancers will perform the third act of the ballet and all the steps they will dance are from the original choreography and not changed or simplified. These same steps are incorporated in the training syllabus. They are difficult, a great deal of jumping is involved, needing physical strength and intelligence to remember the complicated sequences.
