Is this a good song for a solo?

Question

okay i messed up the first time i posted this, so lets try again. Okay so next year im doing a pointe solo, but im going to start learning it at the end of this year, so i wanted to pick out a song. My favorite movie is center stage and ive always wanted to use a song from it for a dance. So this is the song i was thinking about, do you think its a good song to do a pointe solo to?

Answer 1

um I'm in the middle but it really depends on what kind of pointe solo you want a fasterish one or a slow one or a really slow one.

Answer 2

I definitely think it has a lot of potential.  You just have to have the right moves.  It has to be a modern/lyrical/pointe piece all in one.  Talk with your instructor about it, and see if he/she can come up with something that would work.  It will be more difficult that some, but if you really want it, it can happen!

Answer 3

It's a good song and very appropriate but personally if it were me I would choose something slower and with lyrics. hope this helped, good luck!

Answer 4

hey i just wanted to reply to ur answer to my question about ballet.. coz it wont let me email you..

lol i messed up on the spelling i meant to say "im NOT looking to get into abt or anything"

so yeah i got confusedd coz u were going on about not getting into abt, but yeah sorry for the confusion.

Answer 5

I do not think this song would be apropriat for point.  I personaly like songs by that realy showcase one instrument, without lyrics.  Maybe this song would be better without the lyrics.

Answer 6

I think that would be perfect as long as its not like a nutcracker ballet type of pointe!

Answer 7

well the pointe classes at my studio did "corpse bride" and it worked really well.

Honestly, I don't think it's a good song. I would go for one with out lyrics, and a slower tempo.
