Ballet Video Dictionary with Maos Last Dancer, Li Cunxin, Now in a Mobile App 0

Posted on February 03, 2012 by Jennib And Friends


Dallas, TX (PRWEB) February 01, 2012

Audiences familiar with Li Cunxins autobiography, Maos Last Dancer, or the film of the same name appreciate what it takes to become a truly great dancer. Plucked from an impoverished rural village at age 11, Li demonstrated incredible determination, resilience, perseverance, and vision to become one of the best dancers in the world. He danced with the Houston Ballet for 16 years, performed with numerous leading ballet companies across the globe, and medaled at three international ballet competitions.

Now, dance instructors and ballet students of all ages can learn from Li Cunxin and other world-class performers with the Ballet is Fun mobile application for iPhone and iPad. The mobile app features an interactive ballet video dictionary with demonstrations of 325 different steps and movements by Li and three other top professionals from the New York City Ballet, American Ballet, and Houston Ballet.

There is no substitute for a good teacher when it comes to learning ballet, but teachers dont always have enough time to work with each individual student in the classroom, says Bill Atkinson, the director of Ballet is Fun. He adds, With Ballet is Fun, a student can view a video over and over, and even see it in slow motion to really lock in the movement.

The lessons cover a broad group of students, from pre-ballet to beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Through the Airplay function, users can connect their iPad and iPhone to a large screen TV for a comfortable learning environment. Each of the 325 dance steps also includes audio pronunciation to help students learn and understand the ballet terms.

The 325 dance steps are uniquely organized into three distinct categories:

    Ballet Techniques Training Secrets, Turns, Connecting Steps, and Poses & Positions
    Making a Dancer Lesson plans for Pre-Ballet, Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced
    Jumps & Beats Demonstrations of Jump Brush, Brush Jump, Other Jumps, and Beats

The mobile application for ballet instruction makes it easy to find a dance step and also create customized playlists. The student can turn on auto-play to watch an entire playlist hands free, focusing their attention on mastering the movements demonstrated on screen.

Ballet is Fun has been available for years on CD-ROM and DVD and has helped thousands of students and teachers. The video series was directed by Bill Atkinson and Ann Etgen, both of whom received their major training in New York with such teacher greats as Pereyaslavec, Dokoudovsky, Kosmovska, and Tumkovsk. Together, they had an idea for a multimedia ballet training program that would complement and reinforce the studio classroom. They applied their years of teaching and training to the development of this comprehensive video dictionary. Sample videos and a ten minute guided tour of Ballet is Fun on the iPad are available at http://www.balletisfun.com/support.

Performer and Teacher of Singing and The Guitar 0

Posted on March 05, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Joseph Fernando Macari Sors was born in Barcelona, Spain, on February 13, 1788. He later dropped the final “s” from his last name in favor of Sor, the name by which he is commonly known. At the age of 11 he entered the excellent music school at the monastery of Montserrat, though his enthusiasm for the guitar had to remain private. At the age of 18 he wrote an opera that was produced in Barcelona, and subsequently he went to Madrid, where he enjoyed the patronage of the Duke of Medinaceli and others. During the period of French occupation, Sor chose to support the puppet government of King Joseph Bonaparte in the hope of political reform, and accepted an official appointment in Jerez de la Frontera. When the French were driven out of Spain in 1813, Sor left with them and subsequently settled in Paris.

Two years later he moved to London, where he became celebrated as a performer and teacher of singing and the guitar, publishing many guitar works including his Variations on a Theme of Mozart, one of the most successful guitar pieces ever written. His ballet Cendrillon, based on the Cinderella story, was first produced at the King’s Theatre in London, and went on to a tremendously successful run in Paris and further performances in Moscow.

Of all the classical “guitar gods,” Sor was probably the most rounded musician, and he did much to raise the level of interest and appreciation of the instrument. His works still appear constantly on concert programs. He died in 1839.
