Harold Lander’s Études is an exhilarating tribute to the art form of classical ballet. Set to music by Carl Czerny, arranged by Knudåge Riisager, Études ingeniously illustrates the development of a dancer’s technique and artistry, from the regimen of exercises at the barre, to the dazzling heights of virtuosic technique. This ballet truly showcases the strength, virtuosity, and dynamism of the entire Company.
