Book Reviews of Technical Manual and Dictionary of Classical Ballet (Dover books on dance)
Book Review: For all who have done the moves but do not know the names
Summary: 5 Stars
I studied ballet with the Vaganova school. You might have studied under RAD or something else. But the moves do not differ all that much. In this beautiful work Gail Grant has accumulated all the different terminologies. But that is not where she stopped. She describes the steps, gives the term in all the different systems and outlines the subtle differencies from one school to another. I am confident that this book is my best friend when I am uncertain what a step is meant to be executed like.
