Position:Home>Dancing> Song 21/2 to 3 minutes long for ballet dance? A little unusual?


Question:I need a good song to choreograph a ballet dance with. It is not a super formal, but can have lyrical or modern elements, and I want something cool and different? I have been thinking of Enya, or Trans siberian orchestra...any other ideas? Something a little unusual and interesting? Thanks for any suggestions, you tube links or other links a plus!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you have great picks already.

try four seasons....!

The only thing you need to worry about is if it inspirers you: if you don't believe in it, you can't dance it.

I once used the song, Conquistador, by Proco Harem for a modern ballet piece. It brought the house down!

costume - think silver and black with an elaborate headdress!

Something really different would be anything by the group "Lamb." It might be too modern for what you're looking for, but I recommend at least checking them out. Some of their good songs are "Lullaby," "All In Your Hands," and "Gabriel."

Good luck! :)
