PRINCIPLES OF BALLET
Ballet is a means of expressing a theme or, as in most cases, telling a story through the medium of dance. As such, ballet as a genre may generally be broken down into the following four basic elements: Choreography, Music, Plot and Decoration.

OPERA PRIMER
If you're like most people, you have to admit that opera can be a little intimidating - even boring - at first. On a huge stage, with a giant orchestra, actors in strange costumes sing in foreign languages about love, death, jealousy, and murder. We're often not familiar with the stories they're telling, and we can't understand what's happening on the stage.
