    how much does the quality of the music help the dancer? Does it have to be passionate like Tchaikovsky, or can it just be perfunctory and danceable to?
    I guess what I'm trying to get at is does it aid the dancer in their interpretation of the character they are dancing?
    Also does anyone know of a really good place to get scores of old ballets?

There's all sorts of ballet music, from the symphonic great to the barrel-organ tuneful, from the simple to the unspeakably complex.  As to a good place to find ballet music, there's always the Amazon.com banner at the head of every page of Ballet Talk, or its UK equivalent.
