Episode 47 – Our Ten Commandments for Ballet Pianists
This week’s new episode is a funny one with all the team members, and we’re talking about some do’s and don’ts of the ballet studio in an episode we’re calling THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. It’s a very light hearted episode with some sincere sentiment, that we feel would make the studio more harmonious, if followed.
Episode 45 – Happy Endings
We have a fantastically funny episode for you today, with a rather tongue-in-cheek title. In previous episodes, we have talked about introductions and what we need to get the exercise going, but what about our needs for the exercise coming to an end?
Episode 43 – Studio etiquette
Traditionally speaking, ballet is a physical art form, and a discipline, and over the centuries, how dancers, teachers, and pianists behave in the studio has evolved.
We discuss in this episode what we think are the most important aspects of studio etiquette that enhance the art form.
Episode 38 – Playing For Men
We discuss as a general consensus that we would play a bit stronger, bigger with more space in the music to allow for the men to jump a bit higher, and execute more pirouettes, and to generally dancer bigger, as in general, men are known for that.
Catharsis Reel – Accelerando
We’ve spoken at length about David’s love of ‘The Reel’ – aka Catharsis Reel by composed by Amy Cann.
“Unsquare Dance” for Ballet Class
