A study on the bar movements of the first three years in Russian Vaganova Ballet School with music samples

In this study, the bar movements used in the first three years of Vaganova Ballet System, the determinative and compulsory technical moves for the students were tried to be provided in a certain order along with the music uses and note samples. The movements carried out in the first year were stated in the second and third years only with the additions and changes thereof without being rewritten. The recommended order and method can vary depending on the relation between the instructor's own knowledge and methodology and the student's ability to perceive and display it. As a result, the aim is to develop the dancer for the accurate technical and physical competence by supporting the orders and stages of the exercises with correct music. In order for the ballet correpetitors to choose the most suitable musical accompaniment for the movements shown by their teachers and to eliminate the deficiencies in this field, the most important basic bar exercises were selected and the most appropriate music for each of these movements were tried to be provided with explanations and musical note examples. With this content, it is also intended that ballet correpetitors benefit from this study as well.
