romantic ballet started in the 1800's.
The difference between classical ballet and romantic ballet is that romantic ballet was created in the 19th century, whereas Classical ballet was created in the 17th century. In the 18th century, women played secondary roles as dancers. They wore corsets, wigs, high heels, and hoops. Also, the difference was the music and the way they danced. In classical there were less men than in romantic ballet. Romantic= Interests in men, nature, higher powers, past, and other places. Free expressive and emotional. Classical= All the opposite of romantic
Yes.
This is RAD information. Depending on what grade/level you are doing it varies. The Grade Six-Eight syllabus is based around the romantic period and most exercises are done as a pair, with your partner. Although the Major exams (such as Intermediate foundation, Intermediate, Advanced Foundation, Advanced One, Advanced Two and Solo Seal) are structured, but have feeling. Hope that helps :)

Copelia I think.

Ballet. I do not believe Ballet is correct. Yet it may depend on what area within the romantic period you are referring to. If you are asking in regards to music the Romantic period is sometimes called "The Golden Age of the Piano." The piano was easily the most popular keyboard instrument of the time!

Do you mean the difference between neo-classical ballet and classical ballet? If so, the differences can be very small or very large and depends on many factors such as choreography, music, what year it was created, and style. Neo-classical ballet tends to be more of a mix of contemporary/modern and ballet. Though the movement of the choreography may seem more contemporary like, you will notice that foundation of classical ballet positions, turnout, and posture is still being used throughout the dance. The music tends to be more down-to-earth or more upbeat compared to classical ballet music (example: Tchaikovsky). The costumes follow along with it (example: more of a newer and modern looking costume compared to romantic tutus or flat tutus. If you are comparing romantic ballet to classical ballet, the difference will seem very insignificant to the untrained eye and many of the factors are almost identical. The feeling and look of romantic ballet is very floaty and soft (example: La Sylphide) and classical ballet tends to have more sharper and defined movement (example Sleeping Beauty). In romantic ballet you will see more longer floaty looking tutus; like dresses. In classical flat tutus are more popular. You will also notice in romantic ballet, the plots are a lot more fiction based and are very fantasized (example: The Wilis in Giselle). While there is still tons of imaginary creatures in classical ballet it is more acting in real life problems. There is practically very minimum difference between the two technique-wise. The term "classical ballet" is mainly used to just define the difference between it and neo-classical ballet.
