Ballet

Ballet shoes.

or pointe shoes which are the ones that allow ballerinas to rise on the tips of their toes

You would call a female dancer a "danseuse" and a male dancer a "danseur". At the Paris Opera Ballet the best dancers are called "étoiles", which means stars in French.

Igor Stravinsky is a Russian composer. He was born in Oranienbaum (today the city is called Lomonosov).

The age most Ballet dancers should start pointe danceing is from 11 to 13 years old.

If you start pointe too young, you could break your foot

It also depends on how well your ankle support is. If you don't have good ankle support you could break your foot easily.

I had a question about the answer on the top. I am 11 years old and i have had ballet experience since I was 3 years old. I went to 7 ballet schools they all had mixed opinions. 5 of the schools said I should start pointe at 15 and 2 of the schools said I should start pointe at 12. And my old ballet school said that I should start pointe at 11. What do you think?? Thank you! :)

It is in fact "Adam Cooper" who is the beautiful trapped princess Odette in Matthew Bourne's version of swan lake which has only male ballet dancers in order to express the swans' power and strength. I believe that the section you see in Billy Elliot is the opening (as he is getting warmed up; is being informed of how his family has "arrived" etc) . However i cannot seem to find the incredible leap he enters the stage with........ it may be just on the movie, I'm not sure.

In Boston, Stravinsky conducted a performance of his arrangement of the American National Anthem, which he dedicated to the American people and allowed to be used freely. Stravinsky's unconventional stylistic tendencies resulted in an arrangement which didn't sit well with the state of Massachusetts, whose government had a law against the tampering of national property. They considered the anthem national property, and his reharmonization "tampering." Essentially, he was initially arrested for desecration of a national hymn.

They seized his score and took him away.

Luckily, he was released after he convinced authorities of his good intentions.

If you're talking about a tutu then it's actually pretty easy. Most tutu's have a leotard shape and all you do is put it on like you're putting on pants. Hold the crutch bit and pull it up and then get someone else to put together the clips at the back (if it has them).

If you're talking about a wrap skirt, hold it behind you at your hip's height and pull the left side across your front and then the right side. The two bits of material should almost meet at the back and tie a bow with the ribbon to hold it in place.

To name a few: Tchaikovsky (Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, The Nutcracker, etc.) Minkus (La Bayadere, Don Quixote, etc.) Bizet (Carmen, etc.) Copeland (Rodeo, Appalachain Springs, etc.) Stravinsky (Firebird, Rite of Spring, etc.) Chopin (Les Sylphides, etc.) Prokofiev (Peter and the Wolf, Romeo and Juliet, etc.)

There are more than 700 versions of Cinderella. An example is The Golden Sandal.

It is supposed to make the dancers look like they are ethereal because they look like they are floating... and also, taller women are more difficult to partner, and also, technique and artistry are usually considered more than height...

The Nutcracker was originally a toy soldier thing with a mouth that opened and closed. You could put a nut into the nutcracker's mouth and close the mouth, cracking the shell of the nut inside. Hence, "Nutcracker."

Ballet requires endurance, flexibility, and strength. The strength used for ballet is not like any other dance. the muscles you use are different, and you use every muscle and part of your body.

1. Because it was severely hampered by compensatory impediment and was unpleasant.
2. Because after Harrison had removed the impediment it was such a lovely voice that it was sure to make unlovely voiced people jealous.

The most famous female ballet dancer ever was Anna Pavlova oF the Ballet Russes in the early 1900s. She was the first modern ballerina and has set the standard of what a ballet dancers body should be like that is still used today. Then came Margot Fonteyn in the 1960s. And then Sylvie Guillem of Paris Opera Ballet in the 1980s.

Ballet is performed in many different sorts of ways. Some ballets consist of just girls, and some of girls and boys. Ballet is performed by twirling around on special sorts of ballet shoes, walking "en pointe", and doing different sorts of moves that also involve plies and leaping into the air. Some require for you to do splits, and also to use your arms. In some, the boys assist the girls in their moves and even lift them into the air.

There usually are no height requirements. If you are shorter than it is easier for you to have beautiful partner lifts. If you are taller then your extensions have the potential to be breath taking. You just have to learn your body and figure out what you are best at.

An artistic convention is a method or style of conveying or portraying something that is widely used and recognized as meaning a certain thing (or conforming to a certain style).

For example, in recent movies and television shows, when you see slightly jumpy, jerky camera work (Battlestar Galactica and The Bourne movies come immediately to mind), the method of filming emulates a handheld camera, and most viewers recognize that it is intended to convey a more realistic setting and serquence of events.

A more mundane example is when someone turns out the lights on a TV show, then we see them getting up or getting ready in the morning. The convention is that turning out the lights meant everyone went to sleep (or did other things), and now it's morning. Kind of obvious, but that's one conventional way of showing that night passed on TV.

.......

As a history student, to me artistic convention is that which appeared or reappeared during the renaissance. I.e symbols such as scales representing justice which the Romans liked to use and many western country courts now.
