    Tfw HOW AND • WHY U/orvcfoiBoo&o£ ^JWhy Wonder W* THE HOW AND WHY WONDER BOOK OF B> r Written by LEE WYNDHAM Illustrated by RAFAELLO BUSONI Editorial Production: DONALD D. WOLF Edited under the supervision of Dr. Paul E. Blackwood Washington, D. C. \ Text and illustrations approved by Oakes A. White Brooklyn Children's Museum Brooklyn, New York WONDER BOOKS • NEW YORK Introduction The world had known many forms of the dance when ballet was introduced. But this was a new kind of dance that told a story in movement and pantomime, and over the years, it has become a very highly developed and exciting art form. The more you know about ballet, the more you can enjoy it. It helps to know how finished ballet productions depend on the cooperative efforts of many people — producers, musicians, choreographers, ballet masters, scene designers — in addition to the dancers. It helps to know that ballet is based on a few basic steps and movements with many possible variations. And it helps to know that great individual effort is required to become a successful dancer. Yet one sees that in ballet, too, success has its deep and personal satisfactions. In ballet, the teacher is very important. New ideas and improvements have been introduced by many great ballet teachers. And as you will read here, "A great teacher is like a candle from which many other candles can be lit — so many, in fact, that the whole world can be made brighter." The How and Why Wonder Book of Ballet is itself a teacher, and it will make the world brighter because it throws light on an exciting art form which, year by year, is becoming a more intimate and accepted part of the American scene.

  • Meghan Walther Mini Grant Fall 2018 Outcome Report Analyzation Of
    Meghan Walther Mini Grant Fall 2018 Outcome Report Analyzation of Dance Performances from the United States to Italy Ballet, although a global phenomenal art form, differs based upon style, technique, director, company, and country. Analyzing the cultural and artistry of different ballets expose similarities and differences. Noticing and understanding these differences is an integral part in appreciating the arts, especially dance, further. After growing up and training in America for classical ballet, I have experienced many different American ballet companies and styles. As I am comfortable and confident discussing the similarities and differences of ballet in America, I wanted to expand my ballet knowledge into Europe. Recently, I used the Miller Arts Mini Grant funds to experience a famous ballet performance in Rome, Italy and again in New York City, USA. The additional money went towards transportation to and from the destinations (i.e. parking, train, Ubers, and taxis). I am overjoyed that the Miller Arts Scholars Program was able to fund my journey to experience two ballets in order to analyze similarities and differences of the full experience. Swan Lake - The Orchestra and Corps de Ballet of the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma’s performance: Finally, the evening of January 3, 2019 in Italy had arrived and I was able to experience the magic of the Corps de Ballet of the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma’s performance of Swan Lake. I called a cab and in broken Italian told the driver my destination of the theatre. Since the Teatro dell’Opera is such an impeccable and well known theatre, the cab driver knew exactly where to take me.
