École Française
Steve Larson, Pianst
Often impressionistic and
so danceable!
All French composers have been skillfully arranged for ballet
class including Bizet,
Chabrier, Debussy, Fauré, Gounod, Massenet, Ravel, Saint-Saëns,
and Satie. Lovely
songs from French operas accent this beautiful and danceable music
as well. Many duo
piano tracks add depth and color. Beautifully played by Steve
Larson!
"Steve Larson's
CD, École Française, motivates with energy and passion
through a diverse mix of familiar and new tunes, different
rhythms and dynamics. It inspires and encourages students to
execute their technique WITH the music instead of TO the music
and captures the essence of Dance. I always find jumps
particularly challenging and this CD has much to choose from!"
