It depends on the company, for example Boston Ballet. From lowest to highest rank, CORPS DE BALLET, SECOND SOLOIST, SOLOISTS, PRINCIPALS. Also before you get into the company you can get into Boston Ballet ll and many company's have a trainee program also.

What is the difference between a principle dancer and and soloist in ballet?

The Corps de Ballet is the backbone of a ballet company and performs in all the large group sections of a ballet. The female Corps de Ballet in many classical ballets must be very well rehearsed so they can maintain symmetrical lines and perform in perfect unison. A dancer who excels in the Corps de Ballet may be promoted to a Second Soloist and be asked to perform smaller group dances and some solo roles. Demonstrating their talent and strength as a Second Soloist, can lead a dancer to being promoted to First/Principal Soloist. As a Principal Soloists, dancers are given more solo roles to perform and are groomed for principal roles. When a dancer has reached a certain level of technical ability and artistic maturity, they are promoted to Principal Dancer, the highest ranking of dancer. Principal Dancers perform starring roles in a company's repertoire.

Are jazz pirouttes the same as ballet pirouttes?

Yes! :) pirouettes are actually a part of ballet not exactly jazz. Jazz has them in a sense of the basic term. Ballet pirouettes are a tad different because they are performed in "positions" such as second, fourth, and fifth. Hope this helped!
