"As director of the music, Roudnev makes some of the best recordings for ballet class I've heard.

5 out of 5 stars over the top.......2007-07-01

The focus was more on the dancing than on the music that would be done to the dancing.

5 out of 5 stars helpful for getting back to class.......2007-06-28

Listening to this CD is like being in class in New York. It is excellent for teaching an intermediate or advanced class and it is also great for giving oneself a class.

4 out of 5 stars Great for All Levels!.......2007-01-18

The Music on this CD is beautiful. It's great to hear pieces of music that the students have either performed in or will be in the future. My only disappointment is that some of the music isn't long enough. For endurance, I like music that is really long and repeats on the other side. Other than that,this is a great CD.

5 out of 5 stars ballet at its best.......2004-05-28

I loved this cd! it's a little slow but it can be speed up and it still is wonderful to dance to. This is a great cd for a beginning class to introduce classic themes from the most beloved ballets and for the most advanced students ready to dance them. The only thing that was incorrect was that the selection for fouettes on tournant says it's supposed to be Don Quixote when it's really Paquita. It's still wonderful music but I thought it was going to be from the grand pas de deux in act 4.

3 out of 5 stars accepetable.......2004-01-05

I would really have liked if the CD went acording to the levels and order of exercises for Vaganova Syllabus. The adagio snd petits battments were too fast, and it is missing a grand adagio. Other then those few problems it is quite good, and the music sounds the way each movement is suppose to be done which is wonderful.
