ABOUT THIS ALBUM
The CD contains 15 original pieces of music composed especially to the purpose of preparing children for proper ballet training. The different characters of "Exercises" and "Games" will help them to recognize variations in mood and rhythm in music thus enhancing their musicality.

Every track can easily be associated with a fantasy image or story in order to make it more fun for the little dancers. For example, no. 4 can be "The Troll and The Princess", no. 6 "The Butterfly Dance" etc.

In the last section there are three games composed for free movement. That is the fun part after their hard work, where they can be creative and dance freely following the dual character of the music. This will also develop their ability to listen carefully and translate the music into physical expression.
