Certainly , this is the best Tchaikovsky's * Care Soisette But be rond - paig thibition - indeed , the only finished azhibition of this dance , the Arabian dance , the dance of the sugar - plus kind of dancing that has been seen bere for a good many fairy , and the Vakte des Heurt . They were all goc yents ; and , as Miss Allan represents it , it is a thing of opportunities for ber beautiful , artiens art . such interest and beauty that it may even drive high mentally there is something childish and untutored abou Idoking off the storia .

The music speaks through a new and love and can perform them gracefully and rhythmically ; but , instrument : there appear to be no malas , no scienza of this kind of dramatic dancing , in which the anas Orins between the music and its expression in znovane and hands and nbaulden , the whole body , and even the erd gesture . And though we may feel somstimos th fact , are of equal importance with the legs and feet , the music does not always affects in precisely the w we have , perhape , a vague idea that it is " Eastern " and it aflects Miss Allan ( there is a passage , for instance , , a little splensant , and so cut ourselves off from a Chopin's funeral march , another of yesterday's dance source of great pleasure .
