Finally - MODERN BALLET STUDIO MELODIES, VOLUME 7 has been recorded, mastered, listened through on playback (many many many times!) and is finally (at the time of writing) sat waiting fot the iTunes police people to check it out before they give it their seal of approval and release it worldwide. I never understand the timetable from hitting 'submit' and thene it going live - sometimes it takes merely 1 or 2 days and other times it can take 3 or 4 weeks.
The latest collection to Modern Ballet Studio Melodies, "VOLUME 6" is currently being recorded. We are aiming to have this release online to instantly download via iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and all the other usual online stores within the next few weeks. This latest CD will feature many well known melodies from Musical Theatre, Film and Pop.
Review of Modern Ballet Studio Melodies Volume 5 & Original Ballet Compositions by Emily Kate Long on 4dancers.org
Today I’m excited to share two new class CDs from UK pianist Christopher Hobson:Modern Ballet Studio Melodies, Volume 5 and Modern Ballet Studio Melodies Original Compositions. Each features 32 non-repeating tracks of crisply recorded solo piano music.
For the first time ever, I am proud to announce that a CD of completely original compositions is now available to download to compliment your full ballet class. All tracks on this CD have been carefully composed (and consulted with many ballet teachers!) to provide exactly the right support for each individual exercise.
After 12 months, Christopher Hobson is back with his latest release, Modern Ballet Studio Melodies, Volume 5. This release continues to provide all the beautiful melodies from your favourite genres, beautifully played and expertly arranged. Yet another release that is guarenteed to bring a smile to the faces of teachers and students alike!
Modern Ballet Studio Melodies, Volume 4 by the talented Christopher Hobson is a standout for its variety in style and its inspiring energy. The album contains thirty-six tracks of music with no repeats for the seventeen barre pieces. Hobson plays something for everyone, from Debussy and Prokofiev to the themes from “South Park,” ETand Indiana Jones.
A Review of Modern Ballet Studio Melodies, Sounds of Christmas by Catherine L. Tully on 4dancers.org
What a delight! Christopher Hobson has really come up with lovely arrangements that work for ballet class here on “Sounds of Christmas“. I doubt it was an easy task to make these songs fit for barre and center, but the way he has done it–they sound totally natural.
Hi Chris, Spent a fortune on your CDs! We'll worth it tho, love using them for class. Hope all is good with you and one day we will be able to afford to have the real you play for us.
Simon Kidd, Classical Ballet Director, Moorland School
