The Sleeping Beauty
Choreography Notes and staging ideas for a studio performance by Janet Jerger
CD of edited Sleeping Beauty music included

Lots of ideas and choreography to get you on your way to an enchanting performance of The Sleeping Beauty.

Notes for solos variations:
Temperament, Vivacity, Voice, Caraboose, Lilac Fairy, Bluebird, Aurora, Silver Fairy, and Diamond Fairy. Many are based on the Petipa choreography, some with simplifications. The pointe work in these variations will give you lots of material for pointe class.

Several Group dances; some based on Petipa and some choreography by Janet Jerger: Entrance of the Fairies, The Sleep, Ladies of the court, and more.

Very clear notes with lots of illustrations.
