2. Ballet originally refers to the dramatic art that uses European classical dance as the main means of expression and combines music, pantomime, stage art and literature to express a story or an emotional festival. It is called classical ballet (or classical ballet). After the emergence of modern dance in the 20th century, modern ballet, which combines modern dance and classical dance techniques as the main means of expression, is called modern ballet. Gradually, the word ballet has also been used to refer to ballet works with other dances as the main means of expression, although it is different from classical ballet or modern ballet in dance style, structural characteristics and expression techniques.
3. A considerable part of the dance works created by modern choreographers have no story content and plot. The directors use European classical dance or modern dance, or combine them to express a certain mood, artistic conception, or the author's understanding of a musical work. These are also called ballet.

"Ballet [1]" originated in Italy and flourished in France. The word "ballet" is a transliteration of the French word "ballet", which means "jump" or "dance".
Ballet originated from the old Latin ballo. At first, the word only refers to dancing, or performing dancing in public, and has no meaning of theatrical performance.
The history of ballet can be traced back to the grand court of Italy in the heyday of the Renaissance in Europe and the court of Bergendi in southern France. Whenever you get married, meet foreign heads of state or other important celebrations, you will perform this dance to express your wishes or add fun.
The first ballet in the history of ballet growth, The Queen's Comedy Ballet, was staged on 158 1. When Margaret Mies of Lorraine married Duke Yao Yousi of Fancier, the soundtrack of this ballet still remained, which can be regarded as the oldest ballet music.
Prosperous
Ballet reached its peak in Louis XIV (1643- 17 15). Louis XIV himself was an outstanding dancer and loved ballet performances. 166 1 year, Louis XIV founded the first dance school in history-the Royal French Dance Academy, which specializes in teaching dance. This school now belongs to the Paris Opera House. The following five postures of body behavior and some wonderful ballet postures were established here at 1700.
With the vigorous advocacy of the royal dance masters Beauchamp, Cambefort and Lully, the importance of French ballet in culture and music has greatly increased. Therefore, ballet became the origin of many new court dances; Such as: Gavett, Pa Speed, Bo Lei, Regardon, etc. Among these dances, the most important one is the minuet. 1653, Lu Li began to participate in the ballet activities of the French court, and reached a high level. At that time, he was working with Moliere to create a so-called comedy ballet, which was a mixture of drama and ballet.
16 1 year, French king Louis XIV ordered the establishment of the world's first royal dance school in Paris, which established five basic feet and seven hands for ballet, giving ballet a complete set of movements and systems.
Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, released on 1760, can be regarded as the most famous representative of this kind of dance drama. LuRui applied ballet to his operas, as did his two successors, Campla and Ramo.
Mora's works, in particular, are even more funny because they assimilate foreign emotions such as Mexico, health and China. This of course has something to do with his personality and scenery. The British side also created an extraordinary ballet called Masks. By the second half of the17th century, Vienna had become the center of ballet performance. However, European ballet at that time was in the debate between tradition and innovation, harshness and lyricism, pure dance and problem dance, ballet and modern dance. Today, in the 2 1 century, these unattractive ideas have their aftermath more or less, and sometimes they are debated endlessly.

Starting from 1789, a number of early (also known as pre-romantic era) ballet masterpieces such as The Imprisoned Daughter were presented. 19th century, the golden age of ballet "Romantic Ballet" appeared in Paris, with a large number of classic plays such as Fairy (1832), Giselle (184 1) and gabriela (1870). The change of the venue and the audience's viewing angle has caused the change of dance techniques and aesthetics, and the standing posture of the actors has become more and more open, thus formally determining the five basic positions of the feet, which has become the basis for the development of ballet technology. Professional ballerinas came into being and gradually replaced aristocratic amateurs. Professional ballerinas also began to perform on stage, and dance techniques developed rapidly. Ballet performance gradually changed from a social activity of self-entertainment to a theatrical performance art. Ballet in this period was subordinate to opera. The court composer J.B. Luli added ballet scenes to the opera, which was actually a series of dance performances, but the plot seemed irrelevant, so it was called ballet singing or ballet opera. This situation continued until the middle of18th century. Novel,/kloc-a ballet master in the 0/8th century, is the most influential dance innovator in the history of ballet. He put forward the idea of "drama ballet" for the first time in the "Dance and Dance Drama Express" published by 1760, emphasizing that dance is not only a physical skill, but also a tool for drama expression and ideological exchange. The theory of the novel promoted the wave of ballet innovation. With the continuous efforts of him and many actors and directors, ballet has carried out a series of reforms in content, theme, music, dance techniques and costumes. These reforms finally separated ballet from opera and formed an independent drama art.
In the history of ballet development, there are two main aesthetic views that have been at work. One view is that ballet is a kind of "pure dance", and Beaujoyeulx, an Italian dance teacher in the16th century and director of the Queen's comedy "Ballet", thinks that ballet is a "geometric combination of several people dancing together". This view focuses entirely on the formal beauty of ballet, almost completely ignoring the content or plot of ballet, which often leads to the simple pursuit of superb and gorgeous skills. /kloc-before the middle of the 0/8th century, this view was dominant in ballet creation. Another view emphasizes that ballet is a kind of "dramatic dance", and the theory of "plot ballet" in the novel represents this view most intensively. He believes that in a ballet work, the above two main points are still valid today. Many directors are committed to creating dramatic or melodramatic ballet works, and some directors are keen on non-melodramatic ballet and pay attention to formal beauty. The excellent plays in the two works are appreciated by the audience and often staged as reserved plays. Since the 20th century, the influence of various literary thoughts on ballet creation has become more and more obvious, and many works with different styles have appeared.

Choreography is a key figure in creating a ballet work. He conceived a ballet structure or a dance structure according to a literary script (or a story, a poem or a musical work), and then the actors reflected it. Choreographers and actors must master ballet language (or ballet vocabulary)-ballet technical skills, and the ability to express specific content or emotions in ballet language. A director should know what he is good at and what he can't express. On the other hand, actors should be well-trained, able to adapt and creatively reflect the ideas of choreographers. Only with these basic conditions can ballet creation be carried out and completed. The structural forms of ballet are: solo dance, duet, threesome dance, foursome dance, group dance and so on. Classical dance, personality dance (stage folk dance, folk dance), modern dance, etc. According to the above forms, the structure of multi-act ballet (on and off, such as Swan Lake), single-act ballet (such as Fairy) and ballet sketch (such as ballet) developed to a high degree of standardization and stylization in the late19th century, which affected and restricted the development of ballet. In a large number of ballet works created by directors in the 20th century, these norms and procedures have been greatly broken, and new explorations and creations are constantly emerging.

There are seven world-recognized first-class classical ballet companies: Kirov Ballet and Moscow Theatre Ballet in the former Soviet Union, New York City Ballet and American Ballet Theatre in the United States, Royal Ballet in Britain, Paris Opera Ballet in France and Royal Danish Ballet. Contemporary ballet presents unprecedented popularity and prosperity. Representative figures and collectives include Jiri Kirian (1947-) of Czech Republic and his Dutch Dance Theatre, as well as William Forsyte (1949-) of the United States and his Frankfurt Ballet.
Classical ballet has its specific structure and form. Only through the close cooperation of artistic directors, choreographers, dancers, lighting and acoustics, costumes, scenery and professional theater staff can it be completely presented to the audience.
If you can have a basic understanding of the style on the ballet stage, you will get great fun and excitement when watching the ballet performance. Ballet performance is mainly composed of the following three roles:
1, protagonist: The protagonist is the core of the story. Dancers need to have skills and physical strength above a certain level, and the most important thing is to have superb dance literacy and personality in order to interpret the roles in the play. Classical ballet duet is the focus of the whole ballet, and most of them are played by male and female protagonists. The structural order of classical ballet duet is adagio of the hero and heroine, then solo of the hero and heroine, and finally allegro at the end. The artistic accomplishment and skill level of the protagonist will be presented in the duet.
2. Solo: A person who has the leading role skills and can perform by one person or three or four people.
3. Group dancers: Although the dance steps of group dancers are simple, the complex picture changes and the whole atmosphere is more important. Every group of dancers is important. As long as one person is out of tune, the overall situation will be affected.
A ballerina on tiptoe. In the eyes of the audience, dancing on tiptoe is relaxing and enjoyable. The pink ballet shoes on the actress's feet are so beautiful and elegant, which reminds people that this is a noble art. But, in fact, it is very difficult to dance on tiptoe. Those who devote themselves to the art of ballet and explore its mysteries are unwilling to reveal their secrets to the public. If the secret of ballet shoes is uncovered, it seems that the mystery of ballet will cease to exist.
The huge load that ballet shoes can bear can be compared with football shoes, and the key is toes. The toe cap is not only soft, but also has a considerable safety factor. Even if the toe of the shoe is broken when jumping, the actress promises not to be disabled.
Ballet shoes produced by Grishko, a famous Russian company, are very popular in more than 30 countries from Africa to Mexico.
The toe of ballet shoes is made of fabric, such as satin, which can produce corsets. Experts from "Grishko" concluded that the most suitable color for ballet shoes-pink, can not only stimulate the audience, but also appease the actress herself, instead of pink, which is usually used in many countries.
The biggest mystery of the toe of ballet shoes lies in the "shoe box" that allows actresses to dance on tiptoe. The shoe box is hidden in the toe. The "shoe box" is actually a hard cover covering the toes and a part of the foot surface. "Shoe box" is made of six layers of the most common linen or other textiles, excluding wood, plastic, cork and other materials. "Grishko" company has the specialty of adhesive, which makes the toes not too hard or too soft and not easy to break.
The toe cap is hand-sewn, and then sewn together with the rest of the shoe with the inside and outside of the "shoe box". After that, the shoemaker turned the toe back and knocked the "shoe box" flat with a small hammer. If there is no unevenness, let the shoes stand upright on a hard object to see if they can be maintained.

Balance. Finally, let the dancing shoes dry at 50 degrees Celsius and store at room temperature. A pair of ballet shoes is ready! Unfortunately, a pair of ballet shoes has a short life span: two or three performances. The record of "Grishko" shoes is that nadezhda Gracio, a soloist of the Grand Theatre, cooperated with Kittery and danced nine times in the ballet Don Quixote.
In order to adapt to feet of different heights, there are always three kinds of ballet shoes: Vaganova, Elita One and Fujie. Each model is divided into 17 size. In addition, there are five types of obesity in each size. Any actress can choose her ideal shoes from 255 kinds of shoes with different thickness, size and thinness. Nevertheless, in order to make the shoes fit her feet better, every actress has her own unique methods: some people beat the shoes with a small hammer, some people squeeze the shoes with a door, and some people put all kinds of things into the "shoe box" ...
Swan Lake
Yekaterina maximo Vaya, a Russian ballet dancer, admits that in an era of insufficient choices, it takes her all day to adapt her feet to dancing shoes every time a new play is shown.
There's another thing that hasn't been mentioned. Every actress usually sews a small ribbon on her dancing shoes. The road to the stage has been opened!
As for actors, they wear so-called soft shoes-ordinary cloth shoes in the eyes of laymen. Its production process is not as good as that of an actress, but it also has its own subtleties. There are two kinds of soft shoes: full sole and split sole. The split sole consists of two parts: the front of the shoe and the heel. It is the front of the shoe that makes the actor's feet comfortable and free to wear inside.
The tying method of dancing shoes is also very particular: usually the ribbon is tied on the leg twice, and then tied with a bow. Because you can't tie ribbons when performing, actors should tie their shoelaces tightly before taking the stage. [ 1]

Hairstyles are also part of dance costumes. Miss Ballet likes to tie her hair in a bun at the back of her head, because ponytails and other hairstyles will affect practice and performance, and it will become a burden if she doesn't tie it up.

folk dance
Generally speaking, it refers to a dance form that originated and spread among the people, was restricted by folk culture, improvised but relatively stable in style, and took self-entertainment as its main function. Folk dances in different regions, countries and nationalities are influenced by living environment, customs, lifestyle, national character, cultural traditions, religious beliefs and other factors, and are limited by the physiological conditions such as the age and gender of performers, so there are obvious differences in performance skills and styles. Folk dance has the characteristics of simplicity, various forms, rich content and vivid image. It has always been an indispensable source of materials for classical dance, palace dance and professional dance entrepreneurship in various countries.
Ballroom dance
Social dance, also known as social dance, refers to the dance popular in the court dance since the Renaissance in Europe and the dance popular in various social places since modern times. The names and dances used, as well as the basic dance steps, formations, styles and dance performance sequences, mostly follow the characteristics of folk dances in Italy, Britain, France, Germany, Spain and other countries.
Blunt, minuets, Gavett, Polonaise, Laendler, Polka, Mazzuca, Galopa and Waltz are very popular in European courts. After the French Revolution, the form of the court ball was far from meeting the needs of social activities, and mass dance halls appeared in continental Europe, which gradually replaced the court ball as the main place for social activities. Dance steps are easy to learn, free in form, easy to improvise and vent emotions. It was very popular in public dance halls, and ballroom dancing quickly integrated into the cultural life of the civilian class.
ballet
French transliteration. Especially the European classical form with certain action norms, skills and aesthetic requirements; Or generally refers to the dance expression form that uses human body movements and gestures to express the drama content, promote the development of the plot, and express certain emotions, artistic conception, psychological state and behavior. The former is sometimes translated into "dance drama". Ballet originated from the ancient Latin ballo, which originally meant to dance in a certain style in public, without the meaning of theater performance. As a stage art form, ballet first appeared in the grand banquets and entertainment activities of Italian courts in the Renaissance. Later, Catherine of Florence Princess Medici brought this dance form to the French court. 158 1 year, The Queen's Comedy Ballet, the first ballet performed by French courts, caused great repercussions in Europe, and courts all over the world followed suit and regarded ballet as a model of court entertainment. 16 1 year, King Louis XIV of France established the Royal Dance Academy in Paris. 1669, he authorized the establishment of the Paris Opera House. After ballet entered the theater, it experienced two stages: comedy ballet and singing ballet. /kloc-In the mid-8th century, with the perfection of "plot dance" and related theories, ballet completely changed its position of being attached to drama and opera and performing dance only in the interval, and developed into a theater art form with serious social significance, which promoted the development of plot with dance and music. /kloc-The beginning of the 0/9th century is another golden age in the history of ballet development, with great breakthroughs in content and theme, skills, performance and performance forms. Tiptoe dancing skills have gradually become the main performance means of actresses, and accumulated a set of systematic and scientific training methods. Influenced by the romantic cultural trend of thought, the development of ballet in European countries pays more attention to the expression of national spirit and temperament, forming different styles of ballet schools such as Italian school, French school, Russian school and Danish school. Since the 20th century, Russia has replaced Italy and France as the center of traditional ballet development. On the stage of European and American countries, modern ballet with different styles and schools has gradually shown a vigorous development momentum, which has injected new vitality into the development of ballet art.
Plot dance
Ballet terminology. The original meaning refers to the dance with relatively stable structure and direct connection with the development of the plot. The Romantic Period, the basic structure of sitcom is "appearance", adagio duet, solo dance for men and women and group dance with all the actors at last.

dance drama

Acrobatic ballet

Acrobatic ballet
In many people's minds, ballet is the sad love between the prince and the princess, the immortal music of Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, and the noble dance step of jumping on tiptoe. After watching so many versions of Swan Lake, Chinese people began to reinterpret this ballet classic with their own wisdom, so the acrobatic ballet Swan Lake was born. Getting rid of the shackles of the stage seems to be the biggest breakthrough in acrobatic ballet. Actors can free their legs and perform more complicated movements. For example, in the wire ballet, a group of monkeys churned and jumped forward on the wire, showing the natural and lively side of ballet.
Because acrobats are softer than ballerinas, they can break through more physical restrictions. They can form an inner ring and act as the wheels of the prince's carriage. They can be wrapped around trees and perform snake dance ballet, just like snake jujitsu. They can use trampoline to express the rough sea. The swan ballet group dance of roller skating matches the bright and compact melody of Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky more accurately because of its smoother pace and speed change than traditional ballet, which gives the audience a strong visual impact.
The acrobatic ballet Swan Lake is based on the world-famous Oriental Swan-the top of the opponent. This program, which won the highest acrobatic award in the world-the "Golden Clown Award" in the Monte Carlo International Acrobatic Competition in Monaco, will be the main line of the whole drama, running through the second, third and fourth acts respectively, and the extremely difficult "shoulder ballet" won thousands of applause. "Shoulder Ballet" means that the "White Swan" dances lightly and gracefully on the shoulders and heads of the "Prince" without any safety measures, and shuttles back and forth between the shoulders and heads of the "Prince", rising and falling, and the charm fills the stage for a time.
As an iconic attraction of the acrobatic ballet Swan Lake, Shoulder Ballet appeared at the grand wedding celebration party of Princess Victoria of Sweden on June 13 at the invitation of the Swedish Parliament. When the "Prince" and "White Swan" with oriental faces in the acrobatic ballet Swan Lake jumped out of the "shoulder ballet", the seamless performance amazed the Swedish royal family members, officials and European leaders present and won the longest applause in the whole wedding party.

Ballet appeared in Italy in the heyday of the Renaissance in15-16th century, and artists tried their best to imitate the artistic style of ancient Greece. The earliest ballet performance was held at a palace banquet. 1489, orpheus was staged in an Italian town to celebrate the wedding of the Duke of Milan and Princess Idabel of Aragon. The form of performance at that time was completely different from the ballet performance we see today. Each performance is generally related to serving food, such as eating wild boar after the start of simulated hunting performance; The sea god and the river god appeared and began to eat fish. Then, many mythical figures came to the stage to offer many dishes and fruits, and finally the guests took part in a lively and carnival performance. This is a performance form that integrates singing, dancing, recitation and drama performance. It can be said that it is the embryonic form of ballet, and later people call it "banquet ballet"
