Dancers in rehearsal

Ballet troupes around the world work incessantly hard, to achieve innovation and perfection in their field of the arts. This painting is a tribute to those who are dedicated to the art of classical dance and the other forms of dance movement ––classical and contemporary dance. Behind the scenes the work and innovation never cease to obtain perfection.
Classical dance requires an important concentration of dancers, who must perform body movements with great precision and coordination. Practice and fitness are essential, as many of the forms of ballet require elasticity and strength.
Since the 1940s, there have been many variations in the genre, rhythmic and harmonic complexity, elusive melodic tags, focus on chord progressions, drawing on classical styles and forms, and plenty of subgenres emerged from jazz music as well.
