Ballet Class Music - Grand Jete

Ballet Class Music - Battement Tendu

The Music for Ballet Classes series is a collection of CDs designed to provide dancers and dance teachers with all the music necessary for a complete classical ballet class. The featured piano on this album is a fantastic Fazioli concert grand with a wonderfully deep and resonant timbre. 
This fourth volume marks a departure from those previous in that tracks are not repeated for barre exercises, in order to provide some exercises with alternative tempi or time signatures. This makes Volume 4 the most flexible and best value album to date, featuring 40 separate tracks that span a wide variety of musical genres

This cd was recorded half in class, half outside, but in the same studio, with thanks to Valerie Valentine, Director of DanceStreet. Also John likes to thank the Englisch kids for the photo’s, recording and artwork.

John Englisch used to play daily the classical ballet class at Scapino Ballet Rotterdam and previously Amsterdam during 23 marvellous years, engraved in the farewell watch he’s wearing since he retired. As parttimer now he accompaigns classes at Nova College Haarlem, Henny Jurriëns and last but not least DanceStreet Amsterdam where Valerie Valentine gave him the right ambiance to create this romantic double CD taking advantage of Iqbal’s experience. Other musical activities: cantor/organist, conductor of shanty choir ZILT, translator into dutch and singer of Maurice Cocagnac’s Chansons
Bibliques and author of different studies about the opera’s I DUE FOSCARI and CARMEN. 2010 his lifework will appear “The E-Variant” a profound musictheory to recover the truth about time bound functional tonality which is NOT what most physics and EVEN LESS what arithmatics pretend it to be.
