jakijo Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 So, I'm going to audition for my friend's college classical ballet company, and she told me to make up a short variation for the audition. Now, I am at an intermediate level of ballet and pointe, and I want to show off things I'm especially good at (anything a la seconde, pique and chaine turns, bourrees, and echappes). Should I try to make something up off the cuff, or go for a more traditional variation? I was thinking of doing a modified Bluebird (but no hops en pointe, good Lord, I can't do those yet!) which is really the only variation I know... Does anyone have any other suggestions for good variations I should try? I'm not at the level in my studio to do the variations class yet, so I don't have a handy repertoire. Also, what would an auditioner look for in a combination? Are there things I should make sure to put in so she knows I can do them? Thanks for any help! Link to comment
vrsfanatic Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Perhaps you might ask your question directly of those holding the audition. There may already be established criteria that you must follow. Link to comment
