Editorial Reviews
From the Artist
"Anna composes and plays the music of life. She makes it sound fresh no matter how many times you hear it. Ballet teachers — if you want to get inspired while creating a new class for your students — listen to Anna's CDs!

"She will open this invisible door. She will invite you into her world, generously sharing her talent. You will be floating on the spirit of Gypsy passion. You will get to know the deep Slavic soul. You will enjoy spicy, unforgettable melodies.

"For several months before we went into the recording studio, Anna played and tested the music at hundreds of classes in New York City (where she is one of the best and most-loved pianists). At the same time, I worked with the music in my own classes in Los Angeles with children, adults and professionals.

"Finally, she and I picked the truly best to record. The result is 3 coordinated CDs where every track is original and vibrant — unmatched — unless, of course, Anna plays for you live!" – Julia Bourlina

Album Description
The Perfect Class CDs (sold individually or as a set of 3) each holds more than 74 minutes of lush, inspiring ballet class music, composed and played by Anna Korab on the grand piano, recorded in New York City. Julia Bourlina, (graduate of St. Petersberg, Russia’s Vaganova Academy and 12 years with the Kirov Ballet and Opera Company) has designed extra-long, matching tracks, so the CDs can be mixed easily, the teacher needing to recall only one set of numbers. The music was mastered in Los Angeles up to maximum volume, with just the right resonance to give a full, rich and clear sound in the mirrored ballet studio. The tempos, melodies and arrangements are perfect for a classical class in the year 2003.
