Description
This darling little ballerina was a the subject from a similar painting of several years ago. I was commissioned to re-create her once again but with a different background. I titled it Adagio because adagio refers to slow movement, typically performed with the greatest amount of grace and fluidity than other movements of dance in classical ballet.
In the world of music, the word adagio is used to describe a slow section of music. However, in ballet, adagio simply refers to the type of movement and does not necessarily mean it has to be performed to slow music. You can dance an adagio to quick music, so long as your movement is truly slow. Contemporary ballets sometimes use this to show contrast in the piece.
