Description
Nolwenn Collet and Nicola Farcas’ notes about this CD:
‘Les Petits’ is a joint venture between a ballet pianist and ballet teacher. Together, we have produced what we hope is an inspiring compilation of ballet music for a pre-school class. Each piece has been specially composed with the youngest of dancers in mind, taking into careful consideration the style, tempo, and particularly the length of each track – crucial to the success of any exercise for this age group.
This CD does not include music for specific technical exercises (plies, battements tendus etc…) but instead uses creative pieces to allow the teacher to ‘disguise’ these movements in a beautiful dance or through exciting role play exercises.
We hope the Creative Dance and Mime section inspires and excites our future generation of young dancers!
The accompanying booklet (with suggested ideas for many of the pieces) will be an invaluable resource. The original music will spark the imagination of both students and teachers alike, and allow for the creation of an entirely new and improved beginners ballet class.
