*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 395 pages Published by: University Press of Florida January 1990 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 0813009456 ISBN 13 Number: 978-0813009452 Book Dimensions: 11.9 x 9.2 x 0.9 inches Weighs: 3.5 pounds *From Library Journal* An important addition to the reference libraries of teachers and students of ballet. Warren, soloist with the Pennsylvania Ballet for 11 years and now associate professor of dance at the University of South Florida, explains the correct execution of every step in the ballet vocabulary. Dancers from the American Ballet Theatre and the Joffrey Ballet appear in over 2600 photographs and illustrate the movement. Part 1 of the book covers basic concepts of training, physical characteristics of the ideal dancer, and suggestions for conducting a successful class. Part 2 is devoted to sequential photographs of more involved steps and definitions of terminology. Warren includes stylistic variations--Soviet, Italian, French, etc. This book is unprecedented in its detail and clarity. For anyone with a serious interest in ballet. Highly recommended. - Joan Stahl, Enoch Pratt Free Lib., Baltimore Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. *Product Review* "An important addition to the reference libraries of teachers and students of balletfor anyone with a serious interest." -- Library Journal Simply unequalled—nothing else is even close. -- balletbooks.com *Reader Reviews* Among ballet dancers, this book is considered one of the best references for the professional dancer. It is not really for young beginners. For example, It may give the comparisons between French, Italian, Danish, and Russian versions of a particular step. I like to refer to this in some cases even more than dvd references, since it is often more complete. This book appears to cover center steps more thoroughly than barre steps. For better sources of barre exercises see my other reviews, especially "The Classic Ballet:..." by Lincoln Kirstein. Back To Top
