Dmitri Roudnev presents: Recorded in Russia

Dmitri Roudnev traveled to Russia to direct former Bolshoi Ballet Academy accompanist Irina Szypkina for this recording. This high quality, professional cd showcases Szypkina’s years of experience playing for all levels of student at the Academy. Each selection is composed by Szypkina in the classical ballet style for barre and center work. It features clear tempos and strong accents, a trademark of all Roudnev's recordings. Dmitri Roudnev develops his classes, his ballet class music, and his videos/dvds to reflect his experiences as a student and soloist of the Bolshoi Ballet. Roudnev loved the logical combinations and the musicality of Bolshoi classes and he brings these feelings to his lessons, to his ballet class music, and his instructional videos.
