Which term translates to "Assembling step in succession over and under"?

• A. Assemblé Dessus
• B. Assemblés de Suite Dessus et Dessous
• C. Tours
• D. Allegro

Answer: (B)

In Cecchetti ballet terms, an assemblé is a jump where the legs come together in the air and land on both feet. When you add de suite, it means performing those assembles in a continuous sequence, one after another. Dessus et dessous specify the path of the legs as they pass over and under each other. So, Assemblés de Suite Dessus et Dessous describes a chain of assembling jumps performed in succession, with the legs passing over and under in turn. The other options don’t convey both the repeating sequence and the over/under pattern: a single Assemblé Dessus is just the over part; Tours means turns; Allegro is a tempo marking.
