This CD provides exactly what I am looking for when I have to teach a class with no live music. The tempos are all very carefully considered, helping to enhance the movement of any exercise. The very eclectic choice of music used for the exercises bring fun and enjoyment to the studio. What these releases have is a focus on helping the teacher and student alike, whilst retaining the feel of a live pianist. All tempos are carefully indicated from the outset of every exercise and Christopher's experience of accompanying dance shows with his excellent choice of phrasing and also fantastic playing I am very much looking forward to the next volume in this excellent series of CDs.
