Product Description
This chamber music for violin and harp is not dance
music, but music inspired by the idea of dance. Each section takes the impressions and shapes of a ballet step as a
starting point. They can be large dramatic movements or static figures.
First performed by ROS|CAR duo as part of the Applause New Music Series in Arlington Texas, USA on 14 July 2018 at New Hope Baptist Church.
Tour en lair (literally turn in the air) A jump with a full rotation in the air. It
can be single, double, and Vaslav Nijinsky was known to perform triple tours en l'air.
Attitude is a position in
which the dancer stands on one leg while the other is lifted with the knee
bent.
Jeté (literally thrown)
A leap in which one leg appears to be thrown in the direction of movement.
There are several kinds of jeté, including
jeté ordinaire, grand jeté, and jeté entrelacé, or the compound step coupé jeté (en tournant).
