Jeté battu
[zhuh-TAY ba-TEW]
Jeté beaten.
Jeté entrelacé
[zhuh-TAY ahn-truh-la-SAY]
Jeté interlaced. A term of the Russian School. This jeté is
done in all directions and in a circle. It is usually preceded by a chassé or
a pas couru to give impetus to the jump. In the French School this is
called "grand jeté dessus en tournant"; in the Cecchetti
method, "grand jeté en tournant en arrière."
Labanotation
This is a system of dance notation invented by the Hungarian-born teacher
Rudolf von Laban. This system has been developed and perfected by the
Dance Notation Bureau, which was founded in New York in 1940 and introduced
the term in 1953. Many ballets have been notated by the Bureau, which
has compiled a library of works in Labanotation, including the previous
edition of the present book (notated by Allan Miles). |
