Synopsis

Product Description
Solo; is 30 tracks of music for ballet class, and is also the first CD released on the Danceables label. Danceables, with pianist Steven Mitchell, has released best sellers A Covent Garden Class; Pas de Tot, and A Trip to Italy. You've heard Steven's recordings with Master Teacher David Howard. Solo was created while Steven was company pianist for Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre. It worked for their class, it will work for your class. Contrasting adagios and bright allegros. Pieces are classical, but not run-of-the-mill; most pieces were discovered just for this recording. Center tracks are exceptionally long. If the other titles worked for you, this one will too!
 

CD Reviews

Perfect Ballet CD!
Ballet Teacher | Encinitas, CA USA | 10/02/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have all of Stephen Mitchell's CDs and I find this one the best for teaching my ballet classes in San Diego. It introduced me to melodies by Schumann, Verdi and Mendelssohn that were new to me but perfect for class. The tempos are consistent, helping the dancers stay on rhythm, and there is enough variety of tempo for every phase of class. He includes familiar Minkus melodies with at least one that is perfect for men's variations.



I particularly like the mazurkas and coda. If you try this Mitchell CD you may find yourself collecting his other CDs."
