    ROMANTIC BALLET FANNY ELLSLER, 1810 - 1884 SHE ARRIVED ON SCENE IN 1834, VIENNESE BY BIRTH, AND WAS A PASSIONATE DANCER. A RIVALRY BETWEEN TAGLIONI AND HER ENSUED. THE DIRECTOR OF THE PARIS OPERA DELIBERATELY INTRODUCED AND PROMOTED ELLSLER TO COMPETE WITH TAGLIONI. IT WAS GOOD BUSINESS TO PROMOTE RIVALRY. CLAQUES, OR PAID GROUPS WHO APPLAUDED FOR A PARTICULAR PERFORMER, CAME INTO VOGUE. ELLSLER’S MOST FAMOUS DANCE - LA CACHUCHA - A SPANISH CHARACTER NUMBER. IT BECAME AN OVERNIGHT CRAZE. FANNY ELLSLER TAGLIONI VS ELLSLER THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TALGIONI AND ELLSLER: A. TAGLIONI REPRESENTED SPIRITUALITY 1. NOT MUCH ACTING ABILITY B. ELLSLER EXPRESSED PHYSICAL PASSION 1. CONSIDERABLE ACTING ABILITY THE RIVALRY BETWEEN THE TWO DID NOT CONFINE ITSELF TO WORDS. THERE WAS ACTUAL PHYSICAL VIOLENCE IN THE AUDIENCE! GISELLE THE BALLET, GISELLE, PREMIERED AT THE PARIS OPERA IN JUNE 1841 WITH CARLOTTA GRISI AND LUCIEN PETIPA. GISELLE IS A ROMANTIC CLASSIC. GISELLE WAS DEVELOPED THROUGH THE PROCESS OF COLLABORATION. GISELLE HAS REMAINED IN THE REPERTORY OF COMPANIES ALL OVER THE WORLD SINCE ITS PREMIERE WHILE LA SYLPHIDE FADED AWAY AFTER A FEW YEARS. ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR BALLETS EVER CREATED, GISELLE STICKS CLOSE TO ITS PREMIER IN MUSIC AND CHOREOGRAPHIC OUTLINE. IT DEMANDS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF TECHNICAL SKILL FROM THE BALLERINA.

    Review of Choreographing History, edited by Susan Foster By: Ann Dils Dils, A. (1997) Review of Choreographing History, edited by Susan Foster, Dance Research Journal 29 (2), 110-113. Made available courtesy of University of Illinois Press: http://www.press.uillinois.edu/journals/drj.html ***Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document CHOREOGRAPHING HISTORY edited by Susan Leigh Foster. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1995. xiii + 264 pp., illustrations, notes, bibliography, index. $29.95 clothbound. $14.95 paperbound. Choreographing History and Dance Historiography Choreographing History, a collection of essays edited and introduced by Susan Leigh Foster, explores the pitfalls and possibilities inherent in writing about the body and its cultural emanations. Since its publication in 1995, I have used essays from the book to help dance graduate students push their thinking beyond the studio and their own physical experience and to realize the varied resources, approaches, and theoretical positions possible in writing about the body. The collection contains some excellent movement description and also theoretical language so dense as to obscure any communication of ideas. I recently reread the book in search of information on dance historiography. There are few works on the methods, problems, and progress of historical writing in dance. Selma Jeanne Cohen's Next Week, Swan Lake is the best-known book, although the introductions to most histories and a few articles also explore the subject (1). Foster in her introduction and Susan Manning, Cynthia Novack, and Lena Hammergren in their contributed essays provide a substantial addition to this body of work. Foster begins her essay by exploring the problems movement poses for writing history.

    Swan Lake Study Guide 2017---18-18 Presented By the Department of Community Engagement Table of Contents The Quintessential Ballet 3 Milwaukee Ballet’s Swan Lake 4 Choreographic Birds of a Feather – Petipa, Ivanov & Pink 5 Did You Know? – Matthew Bourne 14 Behind the Music – Pyotr Tchaikovsky 15 Appendix A: Being A Good Audience Member 16 Sources and Special Thanks 17 2 The Quintessential Ballet Welcome to the Study Guide for Swan Lake , perhaps the world’s most widely recognized ballet aside from The Nutcracker . It has been called the “quintessential ballet” (quintessential means the purest and most perfect or the embodiment of, in this case, ballet!) and is often the show that pops into people’s minds when the word ballet is mentioned. Since its premiere in Moscow, Russia, it has been presented in over 150 versions by more than 100 companies in at least 25 different countries. That’s a lot of swans! Swan Lake didn’t start out successfully – which is surprising, considering its fame today. It premiered on February 20, 1877, and although Tchaikovsky’s spectacular music was used from the beginning, the choreography, originally done by Julius Reisinger, was less than stellar. A critic who was at the performance wrote, "Mr. Reisinger’s dances are weak in the extreme.... Incoherent waving of the legs that continued through the course of four hours - is this not torture? The corps de ballet stamp up and down in the same place, waving their arms like a windmill’s vanes - and the soloists jump about the stage in gymnastic steps." Ouch! Unfortunately Reisinger failed to mesh his choreography with the psychological, beautiful music Tchaikovsky created.

  • A Romantic Tutu Inspired by the Costumes of the Pas De Quatre Ballet of 1845
    Allycia Coolidge wearing a romantic tutu inspired by the costumes of the Pas de Quatre ballet of 1845. Photograph by Joanna Lupker. MAKING HISTORY: A ROMANTIC TUTU By Allycia Coolidge & In our Making History project, we chose to analyze and recreate a Romantic Joanna Lupker tutu inspired by the Pas de Quatre ballet. This ballet was first performed in BDes Fashion Students London, England during the Romantic era on July 12, 1845 and choreographed by Jules Perrot. This ballet featured four prima ballerinas of the Romantic era: January 20, 2017 Lucile Grahn, Taglioni, Carlotta, and Fanny Cerrito. They were icons of the time and often appeared in each other’s benefit performances, but this was the first performance to showcase all four leading female dancers in a single ballet. Prior to the Romantic period, female dancers wore heavy constrictive dresses resembling court fashion that weighed them down and limited their ability to dance. The key change in ballet costuming was the rise of skirt hems, which was seen as quite scandalous at the time (Mida 37). The changes allowed ballerinas to show off their much improved and intricate footwork. This new shortened ballet skirt fell to just below the knee. The Romantic tutu endures as a classic costume of ballet that continues to be featured in performances of major dance companies around the world. Each element of the costume emphasizes the femininity of the dancer. 1 When this ballet was presented in 1845, the bodices of the costumes were constructed very similarly to those seen in regular clothing. Like the corsets of the time, they were tight (Bicat), with low cut necklines to put the dancer’s long necks on display (Victoria and Albert Museum).

  • Since Ballet Terms Can Often Be Tricky to Pronounce, I Have Included the Word Translations in Brackets to Help You Say the Terms
    Since ballet terms can often be tricky to pronounce, I have included the word translations in brackets to help you say the terms. A Adage, Adagio (a-DAHZH) At ease or at leisure. Adage is incorporated into ballet classes and most classical pas de deux combinations. It is a series of slow, graceful exercises during the centre practice which is generally focused on line, balance and fluidity. It takes lots of practice to gain the stability and control whilst still having a sense of fluid movement. En L'Air (ahn lehr) In the air. This ballet term is generally associated with ballet movements that are in the air. For example, tour en l'air which is a high turning jump mainly for the male dancers. It indicates that for ballet exercises like rond de jambe and adage the leg should be lifted off the floor, such as rond de jambe en l'air. Allégro ([a-lay-GROH) Bright and brisk movements. This ballet term is associated to all jumps in ballet. So, whether it is petite allégro, or grand allégro a dancer will aim to show a sense of ballon and spring in the elevation. Arabesque (a-ra-BESK) This is one of the basic poses in ballet. The position of an arabesque shows one leg as the supporting leg and the other extended behind you. The arms can be held in various positions to show a first, second, or third arabesque. An arabesque is like a tendu derriere but lifted en l'air. The aim is to lift the leg without showing too much adjustment in the body, such as pitching forward.
