The Cecchetti Method of Classical Ballet This lavishly illustrated volume offersThis dance classic presents a complete beginning course in classical ballet. The founder of this method, Enrico Cecchetti (18501928), performed and taught in Russia and with Diaghilev's troupe. By elaborating on a logical progression of exercises, Cecchetti provided dance with an unprecedented unity balancing the adagio and allegro, re establishing the notion of "legato," strengthening the arabesque, and developing the exercise of the plis.
