Seminar - Sarah McCleave: Musical mementoes: Ballet dancers, inspiration for the music market

This presentation will explore the practice of arranging and presenting music from ballet for domestic performance, with a particular emphasis on the London and Paris music scenes.

Date(s)
January 18, 2023
Location
McMordie Hall, Music Building
Time
13:00 - 14:00

Although much of this material bears only an opportunistic connection with its theatrical origins, particular attention will be paid to sheet music dedicated to pieces of repertory associated with specific performers. Each of these dancers would have been celebrated for the individual qualities of their performances. Do these musical arrangements bear any imprint of this creativity?
