Riding to Music: Music and Choreography for the Individual Kur, Pas De Deux, and the Classical Quadrille (English and German Edition)
Description:
From dust jacket notes: "...In Riding to Music the noted German quadrille trainer Werner Storl gives riders all the information they need to plan a musical ride. Over fifty movements, ranging from basic to advanced, are diagrammed and translated into meters, and sample quadrille riders using these movements are provided for training through second levels. The book also lists over 250 examples of music to ride to, most of which are annotated with metronome count and playing time. Storl also gives the rider a system for sketching out a ride using any music, and he provides valuable tips for building in safety margins so a horse will not get behind or ahead of the music. Finally, readers will find information on riding to music in competition and on organizing competitions, including sample scoring sheets. All riders, whether in competition or not, will have an enhanced enjoyment of this equestrian specialty after reading Riding to Music."
