'BEGINNERS #1' with 48 accompaniments offers you delicious ballet exercises for children, composed and played by Dirk Vanderstoep. The exercises are arranged following the most frequently building up of the classical ballet lesson, starting with a Révérence Individuelle, followed by few titles who go without saying: exercises des pieds, rotation, pour la souplesse, etc. After that the 'real' ballet exercises, such as Cambré, Plié & Cambré, Tendu, Rond De Jambe & Terre and en l'Air, Fondu and Frappé, Adagio (2x), Grand Battement (2x), many different Jumps and Pas de Valse (2x). Also there some pieces of music like Mazurka, Polka, Tarantella and Gallop, who always come in handy and, as pleased, can be used in every way wanted. Finally, as a short encore, two musical impressions. The first one in A-B-A form, whereby one can make up a story (e.g. from windlessness to storm and back). The second improvisation is formed by very contrastful short pieces, of wich for example the character can be represented.
