ballet feat, usually performed by women ( ballerinas )consisting in many turns one after the other, but which is different from 'pirouette' because in pirouette , with one push you perform many complete turns (from 3 to 9 if on point, more if on soft shoe) while in fouetté (literally whipped, from french) each push gives only one turn.
First ballerina to 'invent' and perform this 'pas' was Piera Legnani.
Fouetté can be seen in ballets like Swan Lake, Don Quixote, Le Corsaire and more, the music is usually lively and fouetté are about 30.
It is really awesome to see.
For those of you not in the 'field', I recommend a quick search on youtube!
Cheers

Nina Anashvilli is not a fine bellarina, but her quick fouttés with hands on hips are nice.
An Example of male fouetté is to be found in ballet 'Spartacus'

Speed variations in a turntable,phonograph, or cassette player that cause irritating flattening in pitch with sour notes (wow) and/or garbled notes with jerky sharpening in pitch (flutter). Often heard from poorly manufactured, old, or poorly-maintained audio equipment. In the ages when LPs and audio cassettes were the only audio media available, stereo/high-fidelity magazines often used to rate audio components with wow and flutter specifications ranking at the top of the list.
George, your turntable has some nasty wow and flutter. The music sounds sour. It looks like it needs a new belt around the platter.
