Included in study programme
Bachelor’s in classical ballet

Brief course description

All the courses in the programme build up to and create the basis for the Artistic Expression and Stage Presentation. This course should give the student knowledge of and experience with the collaboration between the technical performance of dance, interpretation and artistic presentation. The course also aims at giving the student experience with different choreographic processes, stage equipment and an insight into the stage as a workplace.

In working with stage presentation, the focus will be on great variation in repertoire. It is expected that students will master both expressions of traditional, classical style and more recent choreography. The students' ability to interpret movement and develop integrity and personal expression is an essential part of the course.

The course is a further extension of the previous course Artistic Expression and Stage Presentation part 3.

  • rehearsal of two existing solos from the classical ballet repertoire.
  • presentation, interpretation and the development of roles.

On completing the course, the student should:

  • be able to perform solos from the classical ballet repertoire which exemplify different styles within traditional classical ballet.
  • be able to place these solos in a historical and style-genre context and reflect on the solos' style-related development, with the focus on how these solos are performed in the present day.
